Candlewood Suites a nice stay for a quick weekend trip to WNY/Buffalo. It is conveniently located near major routes and easily accessible Free coffee 24/7, a convenient snack shop, and GE microwaves in the room. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The one drawback - the wifi was out my entire 4 day stay. I was able find work arounds and it was the weekend so it wasn't critical for me. Weekdays would have been more of a problem. Things happen. Wifi goes down, but this was a long outage.

I was actually very surprised. Yup. I am a VERY HIGH status with another TOP 2 HOTEL BRAND and I must admit this place exceeded even some of the other hotels best regular rooms. Because of where I had my appointments today, this hotel was in closer proximity than where I usually stay in buffalo. The Host Nathan was very professional and helpful. I did tell.him I was quite satisfied with this place. So I strongly recommend staying here.

Front desk person on at 9 pm was not very interested in doing her job. It wasn't busy but she was unwilling to book an additional night, - Told me to get the morning staff to do it. This is the reason I went to a different hotel the next night. Front desk = sales. Not willing to make a sale, what are you doing there? - go work somewhere else....

Ignorant staff, rude, inexperienced, horrible hospitality. Management is miserable and you can tell they hate their job and their lives. It seems their mission is to come to work and make every single person they come into contact with just as miserable and negative. Don't stay here unless you want to be threatened to have the cops called on you then falsely arrested for something that didn't happen but its Amherst, why would the police believe anything the customer says. LOL DONT BOOK HERE. YOU WILL REGRET IT.

On Friday January 10th I found my door propped open, the lights and TV on. I was coming in from working for the day at 5PM. My room was 311, closest to the elevator. As soon as I exited the elevator I saw that something was not right. As I approached the door the deadbolt had been engaged across the door threshold preventing door from closing. I opened the door to find the lights and TV on. I immediately went down to the front desk and inquired as to why my door was open. The General Manager stated that workers from Spectrum had been in that day. That’s all wonderful if one, I had been asked first as this is not an emergency and the do not disturb sign was on the door (violation of IHG corporate policy for staff entrance to rooms in exception of an emergency). But two they had made sure the door was closed and locked when done. You can imagine my sense of shock and disbelief and feeling of safety being violated. I then saw the GM walking the hallways ensuring that other doors were locked. No remedy was offered outside of “Do you want to check out”? Did not checkout as it was a Friday evening and the liklihood of me finding accommodations at suitable weekend rate not great. Would not stay there again and will contact IHG corporate about experience when back home from work trip.
