"This is our 3rd time staying at this hotel, which we have now adopted as our home in Buffalo. The hotel itself is in a great location and feels very safe. The grounds and inside the hotel were very clean and our room was no exception. The staff were super friendly, attentive and helpful. They provided us with a free upgrade to a handicapped room, which was very helpful as my spouse is disabled. There were some descent options at breakfast and we were not disappointed in any of the food."

The Richardson Hotel

8/10 Good

"Our first room had to be moved because the first room had a terrible odor. I heard of one other person whose room had to be changed while we were there The staff was very very pleasant and helpful..They helped to make our stay very good."

Beautiful furnished 2 bdr great location Elmwood

10/10 Excellent

"Great communication. Very clean and location was great!!"

InnBuffalo off Elmwood

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, beautiful place"

Open floor plan-historic Elmwood Village, Buffalo area-gated off-street parking

10/10 Excellent

"This place is wonderful ... a diamond in the rough! I was very pleasantly surprised when I walked in. The space is newly renovated with gorgeous hardwood floors, a large kitchen, state of the art televisions in every room, a full bar and beautiful lighting. The street entrance has a tall iron security fence that opens with a code or remote so you feel very secure. Coffee shops, bakeries and boutiques are within walking distance. The living area has 2 huge sofas to comfortably seat many people. Master bedroom has a very comfortable king bed, large closet and lots of drawers. The only minor negative is that there's only one bathroom, which wasn't an issue for me. If you're visiting Buffalo, I highly recommend staying here. I will definitely be returning in the future. Your host is very friendly and accommodating."

Elmwood Village 2BR Apt •Sleeps 8• Walk to Dining

10/10 Excellent

"Location is good, though not walkable to much. Plenty of space. Only real issue was getting my van in and out of the driveway. The space is very tight. Would suggest not using the driveway with anything larger than a sedan. Would absolutely come back."

Lovely 2 bdrm w patio overlooking Bidwell Park!

10/10 Excellent

"The location of this lovely home was excellent. We walked to local coffee shops and restaurants easily and enjoyed strolling the nearby Elmwood Strip. The house is beautiful and had comfortable living room furniture and beds. We normally don't spend so much on a rental house, but this place was wonderful. The bathroom was spacious and nice, and the house layout was prefect. It was quiet at night and felt private in the house, despite being in the middle of so many amenities. The house was nicely stocked with everything we needed, including laundry detergent and soaps, and even some coffee. We loved the outdoor seating area on the front porch to enjoy the beautiful parkway in front of the house. When sitting at the dining room table, our legs didn't fit under the table because the chairs were too tall for the table height. Considering that is our only complaint, this place was pretty great!"
