Upon arrival they had a cute mothers day basket with little statbursts in bags for guests. Super thoughtful. A little helium balloon decoration as well. Staff were polite but just short and quick to the point. I usually like them to smile and have some sort of conversation. There was no smiling. Actually the guy in morning during check out was more friendly. Room seemed clean ish overall however there was a long black hair hanging from the tub faucet. Also the floor around the kitchen area of the room was definitely not swept. Debris all over. That was disappointing. Kitchen was nicely equipped with things you need to make a meal. Cabinets were new so seems like some nice renovations. For the price we probably would give this hotel another chance. Beds were comfortable and it was nice and quiet.

Great Stay with Convenient Amenities I recently stayed at Candlewood Suites Buffalo - Amherst during my trip to Amherst, New York, and I had a wonderful experience. My main requirement was finding a room with a kitchen, and this property exceeded my expectations. The room was clean and well-maintained, providing all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The kitchenette was fully equipped with plates, cups, a home fridge, microwave, and electric stove, making it convenient for me to prepare meals during my stay. One of the highlights of my stay was the availability of coffee all day long. It was a nice touch and greatly appreciated, especially for someone like me who enjoys a good cup of coffee throughout the day. Overall, I found Candlewood Suites Buffalo - Amherst to be a great choice for travelers looking for a comfortable and convenient stay in Amherst. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting the area.

This was an acceptable place to stay for one night. The full size fridge, microwave, and dishwasher was a huge plus. There were some issues with my room when I checked in. The heat took awhile to turn on and the phone in the room was not working. Also the television was not working but I was informed this was because of the high winds in the area. However when I brought this up to the front desk she immediately came up, inspected the room and then gave me another room for the night. Both the night front desk and morning front desk person were approachable and nice.

Hotel located next to a run down hotel that appears to be used for subsidized housing. At 9:20 am) after spring ahead time) housekeeping opened the door as they were knocking to see if they could clean the room, checkout is at 11:00. Bed was one of the worst beds I have slept on in a long time, my back is still screaming from it. Pros are that it is close to University of Buffalo North Campus. Tok many other hotels in the area that I would try before this one.

Super fantastic staff and accommodations! Clean, comfortable. Having the extra space of a kitchenette with full size refrigerator and microwave were a huge plus. The 3 laundry and 4 dryer machines were a life saver and are included free! I highly recommend Candlewood Suites when you’re visiting Buffalo!

We loved the floor plan. It has a kitchen, living area and a separate bedroom and two TVs, But the manager had to show me how to work the stove top. The stove does not get hot enough to pop popcorn. The refrigerator was set to freeze everything, the heater was broken (but it was mild weather,so we did not freeze like the contents of the fridge). You can hear the people upstairs. You have to share the elevator with other people's stinky dogs. They do not clean the room everyday, which is fine with us because we never have our room cleaned by others while we stay somewhere. Our last night there was a lot of party noise which seemed to be coming from outside the hotel until after 2AM. But, it was New Years Eve so we probably should have expected that.
