Location is great for visiting Niagra Falls. Particularly if you want a short stay reasonably priced. Receptionist was friendly. Rooms are very dated but this is clearly shown in the pictures. Has a motel vibe but was fine for what we needed - 1 night stay to travel to Niagra.

Biggest plus is affordability! Yes it’s no frills but it’s a good and affordable place to spend the night while in the Buffalo NY! I’ve stayed about 3 different times and will most likely go back when visiting Buffalo area!

The Centerway hotel rooms are small and feel cramped. The queen bed should be more comfortable. The bathroom felt cramped as well. The hallways and lobby did not smell fresh. I did not have a relaxing stay.

It was an okay set up. No microwave or mini fridge in the room we stayed in. The wall to wall mirror behind the bed was odd. Retro looking room.
Stayed in the non-smoking area of the hotel looks like they do allow smoking in some of the rooms. AC unit was loud which while getting used to it turned into white noise.

Very basic place with clean rooms. It is located about 30 minutes drive from the Niagara Falls. We booked three rooms with the belief that there is a snack bar/deli, but there are only a vending machine & tea/coffee with microwave, paper plates/ bowls and cutlery. We had food with us and there being limited place to sit, the gentleman at the desk kindly helped us find a place where we could all heat food and eat dinner together. There is no elevator to the upper rooms. Walls were rather thin & I asked for another room due to noise, but was told that it was full being the 4th of July, & I could complain to the manager the next morning. Overall clean and not unpleasant, and seemed well-staffed. Suitable for short stay on a budget.
