So glad to have stumbled upon this property when searching a place to stay. It is a beautifully remodeled historical building. If anything I wish we had more time to try to in-house restaurant and relax in one of the vintage lounge areas. The service was great as well. It is a good little neighborhood with easy access to other parts of the city, whether you are going downtown or to Niagara Falls, it is a quick on/off the highway. Highly recommend

Historic stay
The hotel is in a beautiful, renovated historic building. The rooms are unique with very high ceilings and very tall windows. There are several public sitting areas. We had a short overnight stay but would definitely stay here if we return to Buffalo.

Limited room amenities compared to other hotels. The room they put us in was rather small for two people also. Nice hotel for a renovated asylum but, could be better.
