Very friendly and helpful staff throughout, loved they asked before shutting down breakfast service Having to pay a 100 extra deposit (refundable) for potential breakages. Given we found a the rooms a little tired and worn in places, did feel a little on edge as a family vacation group. If the room was immaculate would not have been concerned. Overall suite was spacious and well equipped, made best by the wonderful staff around. Would recommend highly.

I needed a room at 11:00 pm after a really bad VRBO experience. I am the trip coordinator for a group of young men who needed a kitchen and spacious layout. What an amazing property! I called to see if we could extend the stay for 2 weeks (cheaper than staying at a VRBO in the area with great amenities), and the office staff was so kind and helpful, but they were booked for the type of room I needed. Perfect property for families!

I used to stay in this hotel four years ago when my daughter went to college and it was great, but when I came this year, the place is not so well kept and the rooms need some updates. It is great location though and good amenities.

Overall, the stay was pleasant. The breakfast was good, and the facilities were clean. Our only issue was a strong fish smell in our room all four days. We think this may have come from another room where the guests were cooking. Even with this, we would consider staying again.

It was clean and staff was friendly very helpful and respectful. Made you feel like family. The breakfast was very good . The only one thing which is small is the trash can in kitchenette area was small. Need a booger one if you cooking and want to throw your garbage away other than that no complaints

Almost every outlet in our rooms was covered by tape. Elevators are nightmare fuel with the shaking and rattling and horror-movie-esque hum. Heat/AC made a rattling squeak all night too

I had a horrible stay. I felt like the staff was watching me and the guests in my room from the time we checked in until the time we left. It made us very uncomfortable. I will not be recommending this hotel to anyone and they will never receive my business again.

The hotel was clean, nice gym and work out area, the staff was really friendly! They had food and bars in the parking lot (literally) so it was nice to have that option. And breakfast was really good! Overall great stay, the staff and area made the experience even better!

Breakfast at Staybridge Suites is a solid, convenient perk, especially if you’re traveling with family or on a longer stay. The complimentary buffet typically includes a mix of hot items like eggs, sausage, and waffles, along with continental options such as cereal, yogurt, fruit, and pastries. The tea is decent, and the variety is enough to please most tastes, though it can feel a bit repetitive after a few days. A great value add to your stay.

I would also like to acknowledge the woman overseeing the Hotel that was working breakfast area and the front . Unfortunately, I didn’t catch her name, but she was on top of everything and worked with such dedication—like she was running the entire place herself. Thank you all for making my birthday stay so pleasant. You did a wonderful job, and your hospitality truly made the experience special.

When we returned to our room for our last night, the room had not been cleaned. Beds were not made, and no clean towels left. Trash cans had been emptied, but don’t know if the rest of the cleaning was completed. We’re not particularly nest freaks, but we do make our bed every day!

Breakfast was good, not a lot of options but tasty. The suite was perfect for our family of 5 comfy and roomy. The bathrooms had some pink mold in the tub/ shower area. 3 out of the 5 dishes we grabbed to use were dirty. The staff is always so welcoming and nice.

This hotel is always clean and the staff are very helpful, especially Marz, who is very kind and solution-oriented. The rooms, however, can use some updating. My curtain was hanging and partly broken, and various scratch marks on the baseboards that needed to be painted.

The room was spacious and well kept. There was kitchenware included with the kitchenette for easy use and they gave you dish soap and a dishwasher tab for use if needed as well. The rooms were quite sound proof. The people next to us had a dog and you couldn’t hear barking through the walls, even when you could in the hallway. The bed was comfy and the air conditioning worked like a charm on a really hot weekend. The continental breakfast was delicious and had a lot of options. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely go again!

The staff were welcoming and helpful. They made a hotel feel like home! The meals weee delicious and filling. The rooms were clean and I was surprised to find that there was daily maid service.

We booked this hotel for 2 nights for 6 people , note that the rate for 2 nights was 840 ish dollars. We got a suit with 2 twin beds, barely enough for 4 people let alone 6. The staff did give us a couple of extra comforters.This hotel carpets were dirty and the hotel does not represent any 3 star IGH hotels.

The hallways and elevators were not air conditioned. The furniture in the room was worn and had some stairs. I was surprised at these conditions given the price that we were charged. I would not stay again.

I had a very disappointing stay at Staybridge Suites Buffalo-Amherst. The room was in unacceptable condition, with visible rust and dirt inside the refrigerator, a stained and unclean toilet, a greasy stovetop, a damaged refrigerator vent, and a filthy garbage disposal unit. I have attached pictures to prove this. When I raised these concerns at the front desk, the staff member (possibly named Kathy or Kelly) was extremely rude and dismissive. She said things like “I don’t build hotel walls, I can’t do anything,” showing no willingness to help or even acknowledge the poor state of the room. I booked this stay through Expedia, trusting the quality assurance usually associated with their platform, but this experience fell far below expectations. It’s unacceptable to provide rooms that are clearly not sanitary or fit for occupancy. I do not recommend this hotel. Poor hygiene, worse customer service, and a management team that clearly doesn’t care about guest experience.

Room was a bit worn. Could use a deep clean. We had a suite with a kitchen. Dishes were dirty. Curtains were falling. Lots of grease markings on the cabinets. Place could use a good refresh. However, the front desk people were great, the ease of location was good, and it was very quiet.

Absolutely love this hotel and front desk staff. Beautiful Christmas decor made for a delightful holiday 9-day stay. Breakfast buffet is fantastic, and there are many eateries in walking distance. This hotel is located in a convenient plaza area that is perfect for a pleasant short walk in the evening, even when it’s cold or rainy. The hotel has a social hour Mon-Wed. This is our second stay for the holiday season. We will be back!

The staff were all really wonderful and helpful. When our first room had a powerful perfume scent - it smelled like the last tenants sprayed half a bottle of perfume in the room and it lingered for several hours - the staff were quick to change our room, without issue! The room was clean and well laid out. The only things that could have been better were the blinds (can't cover the windows) and TV options (having access to streaming services would have been nice).

It was a fantastic Stay. The staff was super friendly, and the hotel was very clean. The bed was comfortable, and the area where the hotel is located has lots of restaurants available within walking distance. We didn't get to go to the pool this time, but we spent a lot of time outside near the fireplace to keep ourselves nice and toasty. I highly recommend choosing to stay here; believe me, you won't regret it.
