Decent stay. Nothing outstanding. Pros - location (very close to interstate and convenient to downtown, airport, and the Falls/Canada. Comfortable beds and pillows. Great selection of TV channels, plenty of parking, windows in room could open, pleasant staff, price. Cons - breakfast. The egg product was not very good. And you really need to get hot chocolate for the non coffee drinkers. HVAC unir was noisy. Shower/tub dripped all evening. Desk char albeit comfortable has seen better days. Rooms smallish side (was ok for me as I wasn't in it much). Hallway need some touch up, check in was not the quickest, hallway had faint pot smell covered up with Glade.

Front desk staff were very friendly, room was clean. Some of the smaller things could use some TLC (burnt out light bulbs, paint is chipping) but no major complaints. Small indoor pool which was nice and warm. Would definitely return!

Excellent property with great location and friendly staff. Rooms are very good and complementary breakfast was nice. Location is just outside the University. Ideally located to travel from Buffalo to Niagara. Gas station and convenient stores in walking distance.

I stayed there two weeks ago to attend an event at University of Buffalo. I was staying alone and thankfully flipped the security latch on my door as the night clerk assigned two men to my room and gave them a key that opened my door at 4:30 in the morning. I woke up to the sound of my door being forced slammed open against the security lock, I quickly jumped out of bed and slammed my door back shut, looked out the peephole and saw two men who told me they have been told my room number and given a key that unlocked my door. I could not sleep the rest of the night. When I attempted to get the situation remedied I was told sorry. If I had not flipped the latch I would have had two strange men in my room in the middle of the night. There are lots of things that are not controllable, but this is something that definitely was. If you care about safety, do not stay here.

We were on a bus tour and this hotel was one fo the places to stay. We spent 4 nights here. The staff were all very pleasant. Breakfast was good and always kept stocked up. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Room was clean and we had plenty of towels. We did not have time to check out the pool as we were gone all day long. I would stay in this place if on my own also.

Spent 4 nights at this fine establishment. Our rooms were clean, my bed was very comfortable, the pillows were very comfortable as well. We had a hot breakfast every morning with friendly staff welcoming us daily. Management was very accommodating and helpful. I would recommend this motel to anyone and will stay here again if I'm ever back in the area. Nice motel, great rooms, good food and fantastic staff.

While doing college tours this summer my son, Alex and I stayed at the Comfort Inn University at Amherst. Our stay at this hotel was pleasant and the staff, especially Lisa, made our visit memorable. We have questions and concerns and Lisa answered them all. Our room was clean, quiet and even though our stay was short it was restful and enjoyable.
