Best Western On The Avenue

We found this on TripAdvisor, but did not know it was under construction until we arrived. Our room was very nice (410), but our friends had to move after the first night. I think the location is good enough that I would stay there again. The people at the reception desk and in the dining room were very nice and the manager made a point to talk to us. We walked to Tempo, Seabar, Allentown and were only a short drive from Forest Lawn, Albright Knox Art museum, Canal side and the freeway (in and out of the city). less

My first room was on the 2nd floor at the end near Delaware Ave. I could see the plastic bag tossed on the landing although the windows were, well, filthy. The mildew smell was overpowering. I called to request another room and was told there were none. Then I noticed the stains on the bed skirt with matching ones on the lampshade. The upholstered chair had seen much better days in the 90's given the worn arms. Walking into the bathroom, I noticed that what must have been a significant hole had been covered with some material and thoughtfully duct-taped. This was on the tile just above the tub. Hmmmm.... I thought. It is time to demand a different room. After the somewhat harried reception clerk "called the general manager," I was given a pleasant, newer room on the same floor and very satisfied. I blame the management/owner, not the desk clerk. Why try to slip that kind of room by? Three stars because it's the average of the two rooms. (One last side note, they should consider moving out that poor parrot in its meager cage from the lobby into a pleasant home.) less

This was our last stay on our 2 week trip out East. We stayed here as we were going to see the Falls. Wonderful updates to this hotel. We were in a newly renovated room which was beautiful. It had a wonderful breakfast and was a short drive to the Falls. Very nice and helpful Staff. less

Best Western Buffalo was easy to find. Had free off street parking and wi fi. Staff very professional and helpful. Close to down town Buffalo sights that we wanted to see like the Naval ships and a History harbour cruise among the silos. . less

When you tell people you're going to Buffalo instead of, say, Columbus, OH, or Wilmington, DE, or any one of a number of more traditional sexy destinations across this great land, you can get some quizzical looks from folks. But what they don't know is that Buffalo is happening and the Avenue is where it is at. When you're staying in Buffalo, make sure to stay On The Avenue—Delaware Avenue, for those new to the scene. Hands down, it's the sexiest address in the Nickel City. Great service! less
