Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino
"Great things: We liked our room and bathroom. Floor was quiet. We loved our view of the falls and Canada-we could see fireworks every night. We liked to pool and gym. Room service was great, people who took the order were friendly as were the staff who delivered the food-the food was good (5 stars). ..."

Buffalo Airport Hotel
"I had to walk and haul my luggage a long way. No electrical outlets on either side of my bed, so I couldn't use my CPAP. Lighting was poor. Had to get under the desk to find an outlet for my phone charger. Hard for a woman in my 80s."
