Nice property!
This is a very cute place and clean. The bed was not the mist comfortable and I feel we could have had more than two bath towels, otherwise it was fine.

It was just ok
It was not very comfortable. From the couch to the bed. The only comfortable thing to sit on was the chair. The shower head really needs to be cleaned and there were no blankets for the bed. I guess the pictures make it better than it really is.

Will definitely book again when in Rochester.
Very pleased with the space, clean and comfortable. We're not very tall so the low ceilings weren't a problem.
