I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is located in a beautifully restored Buffalo landmark. The rooms are spacious with giant windows and high ceilings, providing a comfortable feel. The staff was friendly and welcoming, but I think the dining options could be improved, as breakfast wasn’t included. Overall, it’s a great place for the price, especially given its convenient location near parks and dining options.

The location is fantastic, right in the heart of a beautifully restored Buffalo landmark. The only downside was that the dining options weren't included in my rate and could use a bit more variety. Overall, it was great value for money.

My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was spacious with high ceilings and fantastic views through the large windows, which made it feel luxurious. The location is ideal, as it's surrounded by terrific museums and is in a lovely area. However, the dining options weren't included in our rate, which was a bit disappointing, and the service could be faster during peak hours.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is situated in a great area near Elmwood Street and plenty of eateries. The rooms are spacious with huge windows, letting in lots of natural light, and the staff is really friendly. However, I found the dining options to be somewhat lacking as breakfast wasn't included. Overall, it offers good value for money, though I think there’s room for improvement in the dining area.

I had a great stay at the hotel, which is located near three fantastic museums and plenty of eateries on Elmwood Street. The rooms were spacious with giant windows and had a really high ceiling, making them feel more luxurious. The staff was friendly, and while the dining experience wasn't included in my rate, the gourmet pizzas really hit the spot. However, I wish the Wi-Fi had been complementary as that felt a bit extra on top of the overall cost.
