3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 June 2013 via mobile

Hotel rooms are nice and equipped with kitchenettes. Bath amenities like towels, bath soap, shampoo, etc. are all okay compared to surrounding hotels. Although some of the rooms are already showing wear and tear and their wifi are a bit slow and unstable with frequent connection drops. Parking at night can be hard as they have small parking space.

We just returned from a long weekend in the Buffalo area. We needed a kitchenette, easy access to Buffalo without staying IN Buffalo, and a room that fit us and our two college age kids, which means wi-fi. This hotel was perfect and I can't commend the value enough. A full size fridge, stovetop, microwave, great cable. Close to main... More

Good location right across from the entrance to UB North Campus, near lots of restaurants and stores. Very comfortable - very clean. A good place to stay if you are looking for a spacious room with a nice kitchen. Some things to note: This hotel shares a parking lot with what used to be a Hotel Indigo, but is now... More

This hotel was clean, modern, and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The suite provided a fridge, small cooktop and dishwasher. However, this was not enough to make up for the fact that there was NO DAILY HOUSEKEEPING (fine if just one night) and NO POOL! This information is buried on their website! What hotel chain doesn't provide daily... More

Cozy, has a nice kitchen with a normal size fridge inside, great location. Large rooms (especially after big city hotels that barely have room for a bed). What's not to like? Close to a little plaza with bars and pizza-places, not far from Galleria mall, NOTHING LIKE DOWNTOWN BUFFALO. If this is your first visit to Buffalo - I'd recommend... More

We opted to stay at the Candlewood Suites while visiting Niagara Falls, and we were so happy we did! Our studio apartment was really great: well-equipped, CLEAN and very comfortable. Every need was anticipated, down to a bowl of popcorn waiting to be popped in the microwave! It's on a busy street (Maple Rd) but traffic noise was minimal. Very... More

I much prefer having housekeeping come in every day. Towels, linens, soap/shampoo, coffee was available in the lobby, but you had to go down and get them. The room was spacious, with a small "queen" size bed, felt more like a full size bed. Bed spread was stained, sink had hair in it from previous guest. I did like the... More

The practice of clustering "flavors" of hotels (Marriott, Doubletree, Red Roof, etc.) in one enclave and often under single management occasionally has its blessings. The Candlewood/Amherst is a great blessing! Tucked next to its sister Doubletree and staffed by the friendliest women you will ever meet after your mom (especially Ashley, with her braided hair and sincere Midwestern smile!), this... More
