For an annual Ravens road trip, we stayed at this hotel. I chose this hotel specifically because all rooms were supposedly suites. In fairness, they are more so a junior suite as opposed to a traditional suite. Upon check-in, I was greeted by a lovely young lady. I am probably wrong but I believe her name was Kiara (dark hair, approximately 20 years old.) Anyway, she was very enthusiastic and friendly. No doubt, she’s the type of young lady that reflects positively on the property. The room was dated. They have a fireplace heater which is nothing more than a decoration. It looks nice, but I think it stopped blowing hot air long ago. The bathroom is very cramped. Again, that’s not usually the case in suites. I did like how the rooms are set up as mini condos. The beds were comfortable. As far as the property, there’s ample parking. Although I didn’t eat the breakfast, I looked at it when I got coffee in the morning. It looked good. The hotel is approximately one mile from University of Buffalo. It’s a very nice area. Any kind of store imaginable is within easy driving distance. One evening, the carbon monoxide detector went off around 8pm. The front desk said they were working on the system. Incidentally, it went off again 2 am the next morning. That really doesn’t give one an easy feeling. When I checked out, I met Rachel. I also found her to be extremely outgoing and a pleasure to talk to. Again, she is a great ambassador for the Marriott brand. Would I stay here again? Maybe. I wouldn’t automatically say yes or no.
