M Hotel Buffalo

8/10 Good

"Would like to receive my deposit quicker."

Garden Place Hotel

8/10 Good

"Upon coming in the lady at the front desk wasn’t very friendly or inviting. The halls looked like creepy hospital hallways. Breakfast was pretty good though and rooms were pretty clean"

Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were friendly and the rooms were spacious and clean."

Fairbridge Inn Express Buffalo Airport Williamsville

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and fresh. The staff while waiting was very kind and helpful. The breakfast was ok. It was your standard hotel fare. Although the hotel is next to the airport, other than a few times, the noise was minimal."

Sleep Inn Amherst - Buffalo North near University

10/10 Excellent

"We appreciated the friendly staff. We made good use of the pool and hot tub. The jets were not working on the hot tub but the water was genuinely hot making for a good soak. The hotel is close to a wide variety of dining options and shopping as well."

Motel 6 Amherst, NY - Buffalo

8/10 Good

"A quiet motel with a clean room and plenty of parking. The room with two queen beds was much bigger than we anticipated, and we appreciated the little table with two chairs and the mini fridge. Our only complaint was the lack of shampoo and conditioner, as well as a better body wash option for the shower. The only toiletries provided were two very small bars of soap."
