Our stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Tonawanda, NY was perfect.The King size room had plenty of room, a nice sized bathroom with a walk-in shower and the kitchenette area had a microwave, a Keurig coffee maker and a larger than normal fridge. Like I said, perfect!

It could have been a little cleaner. We were disappointed we couldn't get adjoining rooms. When they say breakfast is until 9:30, they mean it: they were giving the 2-minute warning at 9:28, and the doors were shut by 9:35. Overall, it was a place to sleep and shower. We were only there one night, to attend dance recitals. Good enough but I would not be in a hurry to stay there again.

Good Place to stay for a trip to Niagara

This hotel was very convenient to stay for our trip to the Niagara Falls. It had adequate parking, the staff was friendly and the place was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was adequate for a hotel at this tier. It would have been nice to have at least 1 item change in the breakfast so you are not having the same things every day. Since we were there only for 2 nights, it didn't matter but any longer would have been a bit irritating. Overall the place is worth the price and good to stay. The pool was clean and a very decent size.

I liked that it was close rainbow rink which we were in town for a skating event. The rooms were a good size for 3 people. There were 2 minor issues. The first was the usb outlet wasn't working unless it was jammed in on the side nead the beds. The second was that the light behind the beds were flickering, although they were low it could be difficult to fall asleep with. Lastly, the complimentary breakfast was great and plentiful. Fulfilling after a night of skating. I would stay there again.
