This was incredible nice clean place, the front desk that spoke Spanish and the helper did an AMAZING JOB, getting my autistic daughter feel comfortable.. I strongly recommend this place and we will be back to thank them personally for her kindness.

The lobby and room were clean. But there was often no one at the front desk. At night when it was dark out anyone could walk right into the lobby without needing a key card. And while it’s next to a couple other hotels, it’s also next to a motel that has windows boarded up. Not sure if it’s even in business. One night a man was sprawled out in a chair in the lobby asleep. I didn’t feel safe as a solo female.

Wasn’t a busy week or weekend and did not have a room ready before 3 pm front desk personnel told me that rooms would not be ready for at least an hour because she had to check each on each one . Went instead to another hotel across the street where with no surprise they had rooms ready

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.
