Candlewood Suites a nice stay for a quick weekend trip to WNY/Buffalo. It is conveniently located near major routes and easily accessible Free coffee 24/7, a convenient snack shop, and GE microwaves in the room. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The one drawback - the wifi was out my entire 4 day stay. I was able find work arounds and it was the weekend so it wasn't critical for me. Weekdays would have been more of a problem. Things happen. Wifi goes down, but this was a long outage.

I was actually very surprised. Yup. I am a VERY HIGH status with another TOP 2 HOTEL BRAND and I must admit this place exceeded even some of the other hotels best regular rooms. Because of where I had my appointments today, this hotel was in closer proximity than where I usually stay in buffalo. The Host Nathan was very professional and helpful. I did tell.him I was quite satisfied with this place. So I strongly recommend staying here.

Front desk person on at 9 pm was not very interested in doing her job. It wasn't busy but she was unwilling to book an additional night, - Told me to get the morning staff to do it. This is the reason I went to a different hotel the next night. Front desk = sales. Not willing to make a sale, what are you doing there? - go work somewhere else....

Ignorant staff, rude, inexperienced, horrible hospitality. Management is miserable and you can tell they hate their job and their lives. It seems their mission is to come to work and make every single person they come into contact with just as miserable and negative. Don't stay here unless you want to be threatened to have the cops called on you then falsely arrested for something that didn't happen but its Amherst, why would the police believe anything the customer says. LOL DONT BOOK HERE. YOU WILL REGRET IT.
