Everything. But the staff was so very helpful and friendly.

In a quiet neighborhood. Several restaurants within walking distance. Plenty of character in the house. The white hexagonal tiles in the bathrooms were the same as in the house in which I grew up in California. That made me pleasantly nostalgic....

Very nostalgic, homey environment. Katherine was really sweet and was concerned about my comfort while a guest. I would definitely go back if I were to stay in Buffalo again. Also, easy access to highways to Niagara Falls and south to Pennsylvania.

Property info

We are simple, communal-style lodging set inside of a restored 1922 nun's convent. Our property features private guest rooms well equipped with central air, comfortable beds, 100% cotton bedding, and a peaceful mix of modern and antique furnishings. Guests share a dormitory style bath, fully equipped kitchen, butler's pantry, parlor room, refectory and onsite coin laundry. Guests choose our property for the first time because of our stellar online reputation, affordable rates and intriguing history. But, they come back again and again because of the people and the feelings of home. There’s no place like the Moreland Guesthouse anywhere else in the world! You’ll be so happy that you found us. OUR HISTORY Our property served as the Visitation Roman Catholic Church monastery from 1922 to 1970. In 1970 Michael Ubaldini, a parishioner who worked as an accountant for the church, learned that Visitation was being sold. He and his wife, Josephine, who were looking for a new home for their 10 children purchased the property. For the next 40 years, our site served as a private residence to a large, local, Italian family. In 2010, stewardship was transfer to Linda and Nika - a local mother and daughter team. Before the recurrence of home sharing popularized, Linda and Nika’s had the idea of repackaging and reintroducing the ancient concept of a rooming house for travelers in the United States. They search for a property of architectural interest that had never been turned into “units” like much of the local real estate had been. They wanted the site to organically lend itself for use as a lodging house for travelers. From there, the Visitation Monastery and the former Ubaldini residence became known as the Moreland Guesthouse - one of the first premium communal lodging spaces for travelers in 21st century America.

Neighborhood info

Nestled on the far east side of Buffalo, guests who stay with us experience a traditional working class Buffalo neighborhood that is easy to get to and from. We are approximately 5 miles from Downtown Buffalo and the Airport and no more than a 15-minute drive to everything the City and our immediate suburbs have to offer. For those traveling without a car, we are 1-2 short blocks to two major bus routes. While some of our surrounding areas have seen better days, our area and guesthouse are very safe. It's a place where kids still play in the street and neighbors look out for one another. There is a 7-11, Tim Hortons, Carbone's Pizza, Lovejoy Pizza, Buffalo Brewery and an ice cream shop within a few blocks. For a better dining and nightlife experience, our local innkeepers are always happy to recommend some of our favorite places around the City.
