Great central location to enjoy all of Buffalo
The location of this house was perfect to explore different areas in Buffalo. The house itself was perfectly equipped with all of our needs, including guide books for the area. I would highly recommend this rental if traveling to Buffalo.

Place was great and we would definitely book again. Only improvement I would suggest is possibly some additional items in the kitchen (i.e: some mixing bowls; possibly maybe just a thing of foil/saran wrap or some baggies).

The property was very nice. There’s a very nice backyard but not really set up to sit out and enjoy the nice weather. The front door is very tricky with the keypad. We enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely recommend it !!

We had a very good stay
Overall the property was clean and nicely appointed. The only issue was a few black ants in the downstairs bathroom and kitchen. Not a big deal. We appreciated the shower body wash conditioner and shampoo in both bathroom. We did have to got out and buy toilet paper. There was no local tv only Netflix and Prime. The deal breaker as to why we would not stay there again-The front steps are a major safety concern. The porch slopes terribly and the outdoor carpeting on the stairs is a tripping hazard. Honestly, I don't know how this front entry passed inspection. We visit Buffalo often and would love to stay again if the

Easter Weekend in the 716
The house was well suited for our stay, 6 adults. The kitchen was great - organized, clean and well stocked. Only two disappointments, that didn't alter our rating, just are suggestions for improvement. The living room does not have enough seating and the sofas are very old. The main TV in the living room is not a smart TV, we could not get live TV at all (it is March Madness), only Netflix type entertainment. An upgrade to the TV would be great! Thanks for the hospitality!

Fabulous stay in a beautiful home!
We were four friends who were coming to Buffalo to spend four days together, and we couldn’t have picked a better place for a girls' weekend! As soon as we walked into the place, it felt like home. The entire house was very clean and well kept, and the location was perfect for getting around the city. Everywhere we wanted to go was just a short driving distance away. We each had our own bedroom with very comfortable beds and lots of pillows, there was plenty of living space and a well stocked kitchen, and there were two full bathrooms with nice, plush towels. Ayat was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was always extremely quick to respond to our inquiries. We all loved our stay and would highly recommend Harvard Haven for a great getaway! Thanks again, Ayat, for a wonderful stay!

Horrible stay and experience.
When we reached there, it was not cleaned after prior guests left. We had to leave the house until 6 pm so they could clean it. We were left waiting and killing time till he got it cleaned. Upon asking to reimburse in some form (for eg buy us a bottle of wine/liquor) he denied that and got us a couple bags of chips and some chocolate which doesnt even cut it. This was completely unprofessional behavior and stay started at such a bad note. We wanted to have a good time but it turned out sour from the get go.

Buffalo Family house
This house has four roomy bedrooms and plenty of living space. It was perfect for our family visiting Buffalo together. We were close to where we wanted to be and it was very easy to get to the Falls and museums and just a couple blocks from Delaware Park. The beds were super comfortable and the bathrooms were very nice. A great place to stay if you are planning to hang out in Buffalo.

Great Location!
This property had a great location. We were able to walk to Elmwood pretty easily from here. Pretty close to the light rail line so you have easy access to downtown. The neighborhood is up and coming so it's a little rough around the edges, but I think it's only going to improve. Definitely would rent again!

Ayat has done a great job keeping the charm of this magnificent old large house while providing some modern updates. The house is located less than a mile away from Elmwood Ave and all of the beautiful parks and parkways--it was perfect for our group! If you want to stay in the Canisius/Elmwood Village area, you should consider Casa Verde!
