Residence Inn by Marriott Buffalo Amherst, Williamsville

I recently made a reservation for a visiting doctor, who is a candidate for a position at this hotel and decided to check it out for myself as I dropped him off. What I found was phenomenal. For a very inexpensive rate compared to nearby hotels, I walked into a two story suite, complete with kitchen, big tv and the bedroom was situated in an open loft. When I spoke to the doctor about he experience, he said he felt he was "over indulging" that the room was big enough for a whole family. He stated everything was clean and fresh and that he was very impressed. He was unable to participate in the evening meal as he was going out to dinner, but I walked down and checked it out for him. They were grilling hotdogs outside, there were salads of several kinds and they had desert, wine, beer, juice, soda and coffee. I don't know of any other hotel that offers free dinner meals so if I were traveling with a family with kids I would think that this is a good selling point as restaurants can get quite costly. So what if it isn't gourmet food. People look at the whole package, besides the people who rent the suites could cook their own meals in the kitchenette if they wanted. We will continue to send interviewing medical candidates there. We have sent them there more than once and there have been no complaints. And it is my job to make sure everything we do impresses these candidates we wish to recruit. If it wasn't a nice place, we would not return. Above all, you should try it for yourself, if only for a one night stay and then make your own judgment. Only you will know what your standards are.

We have been staying here over a week now (and might have stay for a month). They told us that they had indoor pool,but they didn't The food is often right out of the can (all the fruits were) Not like what they said, no high speed internet,it took us forever to do any thing.. The worst part is that our possessions keep disappearing.. On weekends, holidays there is no place to sit to have breakfast, food is always out..lines are long... Tiny dining area.. I will NEVER recommend this place to any one.. If Homewood had any availability I would have relocated next day after we checked in.. Which has far better service and facility... I strongly dislike their lies they told us we heard when we made the reservation.
