Adequate hotel for budget minded

It's an old hotel, updated. The disturbing part was cleanliness. I walked barefoot on the floors and the bottoms of my feet were black with dirt.

The room smelled like smoke. When I was reassigned to a different room, that room also smelled like smoke. The new room also had a toilet that was very difficult to work with, and the shampoo dispenser was empty. The floor also had a lot of sand on it, so it was hard to walk around without socks on (e.g., after a shower). The grounds of the motel were also very noisy the entire time of my 2-day stay. I am removing this motel from my list of economy motels to consider staying at next time I come to the Buffalo area.

They were able to accommodate an early check-in which was much appreciated. The room smelled funny so I picked up an air freshener and we were good.
