The front desk manager and staff were friendly, helpful, and answered many questions. The cleaning staff were very helpful too. The bedding and bathroom linens were fresh, clean, and fluffy. The bedroom was very comfortable and spacious. The living area, sofa, recliner, bar stools, and computer swivel chair were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was clean and a generous size, I could accomplish a lot, and my stay was relaxing and productive.

The staff were very friendly and responsive. I had an issue with check-in and needed some manager's involvement to correct it, which was handled satisfactorily The overall cleanliness was good, and the exterior was well-maintained. I was informed that they were renovating rooms; mine was comfortable, clean, and had a kitchenette. The daily rate was worth the accommodations.

My only regret was using Expedia to book the room. The Hotel was great. I made a mistake while booking and Expedia wouldn't let me fix it. The Hotel was understanding and worked with me.

The room that I reserved Friday to Monday stay was not available due to a guest refusing to leave until Sunday- made no sense. I was accommodated with a rollaway bed which clearly was not the original Queen suite that I paid for in advanced. The rollaway bed limited space greatly.

Candlewood Suites is a nice, quiet, and clean place to stay in the Buffalo area, and it is close to UB and the interstate system. The folks there are pleasant and do a good job taking care of the place.

Hotels.com service is unacceptable

You guys charge $20 for your services as just figured. Candlewood suites charged us after you another $99. So I assume you got so lazy, you can’t even make a deal between yourself and your vendors. Very bad. I will skip you next time.
