I bought a room for my girlfriend as she was traveling to Buffalo for business. The criminals at this hotel threw my girlfriend out onto the street at 10:30 at night due to their policies on check-in ages. This probably wouldn’t have been a problem except for the fact that they refused to refund my money, so they denied me the service that I paid for then took my money and ran.
When I spoke to the night manager (Autumn? Aubrey? Something like that) she told me there was nothing she could do about the age policy (which seems ridiculous, but fine, policy is policy) and that she would be happy to issue a refund once I submitted a case with hotels.com
She lied. The Curtiss took my money and ran and denied the refund after throwing my girlfriend out into the street after a stressful 6 hour journey because she was 2 days younger than the minimum checkin age.
If they had simply thrown her out and refunded the money? This review wouldn’t have been written.
Do not stay here. This place is run by thieves

Wonderful stay; not a disappointment. Only problem; price quoted was $296. I was charged $536, at time of check in. Bit of a sticker shock

Lackluster customer service
The front desk at check in and check out was not very friendly, didn't really smile, and I didn't feel welcome...almost like they didn't think I was supposed to be there. I was in town on business - despite the gorgeous hotel accommodations, I can't get past how the two ladies made me feel. Not sure I will stay again.

Home away from home
Beautiful experience just wished I had noticed that the do not service button was pressed on the door as I never experienced the room service.
