What guests think
Across recent reviews, Red Roof Inn PLUS+ University at Buffalo - Amherst draws frequent criticism for poor cleanliness, heavy wear and tear, smoke odors, and disruptive noise, though a few guests note friendly staff and a convenient location near UB.
Multiple accounts mention inaccurate photos, rooms left unprepared, and recurring maintenance failures like faulty locks, nonworking HVAC, and broken fixtures. Several guests reported bedbugs, mold, and stained linens, while others described unsettling activity around the property and feeling unsafe at night. Positives are limited to the location and occasional courteous service; overall, expect a budget stay with significant trade-offs.
