Budgetel Inn & Suites

The bed was so hard it hurt my back, and I tossed and turned all night. When I ran the tub, rusty brown water came out first, followed by black, sludge-like particles that looked like fecal matter. I was disgusted. I ended up finding another place in Buffalo for the rest of my trip, and had a nice stay there. Before leaving, I asked the owner if he'd charge me for just the first night because of the problems. He offered to move me to another room, but I told him that wasn't necessary since I wouldn't be staying. I arrived at Budgetel late Thursday night, June 2, 2016, for the US Open Sporting Clays tournament. Room 207 looked as if it hadn't been used in ages. The AC was off and the refrigerator unplugged. When I called the front desk, they said the fridge would work if I plugged it in, since the owner unplugs them when they're not being used. The room was old and dilapidated, but with nowhere else to go, I tried to make the best of it. I unplug alarms so they won't go off, and found spiders behind the nightstand when I did. I watched HBO, had a few beers, and went to bed. I had to get to the shoot, so I moved on during the day. You get what you pay for, or at least you should. If you want a shower without fecal matter, stay somewhere else. I'm not sure how the Heath Department allows this place to stay open. Regards, Erick Platten.
