Very Good

Nice place. New and clean. Only complaint, which is not the hotel's fault is the youth hockey teams that were visiting Buffalo and staying there for a tournament. No discipline by children and little to no supervision as they ran up and down the hall outside my room. This is on the parents, showing them to behave that way. It ended around 9pm, which was the time i gave myself to tolerate the noise before i called the front desk. The front desk clerk was very nice and helpful. Will definitely stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was courteous. Room was tidy but the garbage wasnt thrown out from the previous occupants, so we had to go tell the front desk. Also the wall was peeling on one side of the bed. Other than that, everything was ok
When making the reservation, I did not notice that the rooms do not have a microwave oven. For us, it is a necessity.
In the future, we will have to look for other options.

Disliked: Staff & service
After the first night I looked at my account to make sure the charges were right and there are about $1000 in extra charges. 3 charges for $300 1 charge for $1 and 1 charge for $150. The manager said that the person who checked us in messed up and that they are only holds but that hold doesn't let me use the money for things I planned to do on the trip. So driving 7.5 hours to come have some fun ended up being driving 7.5 hours to stay in a hotel and go home.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The reason for my low rating is that the furniture in my suite look like it had been chewed by pitbull’s all of the furniture legs were chewed up and should not have been in a Marriott property
The hotel room was quiet and clean. The bathroom was small as the door swings in to right in front of the toilet. The hot tub is gone and recently tiled over, which was a disappointment. Television allows easily for HDMI media input.
Clean room as described. Beds are comfortable however pillows are horrible! Also super loud vacuuming with the cleaning staff talking super loud in the morning at 7am!! Overall good stay decent staff and clean hotel!
