The staff was very nice. That's the good. The 1st room they gave me room 409, was 81 degrees when I walked in. The air did not work. They moved me to another room. There were no ice machines on the floor. I had to go all the way to the front desk to get ice. They put another customer in room 409. He had to change rooms too. The pool was under construction. My room faced a side street. Cars were rev in engines and screeching tires. Saturday morning the fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate. The amount I paid per night was too high for what I got.

The staff was great. Very nice and helpful. The room was pretty clean but overall, it’s in need of some cosmetic care. The TV was hard to figure out; I couldn’t get the volume up high enough to hear. Nice to have a refrigerator. Weird that there are no ice machines on the floors. The front desk clerk had to get it on the second floor. One elevator was broken. The place just felt kind of old and run down a bit. The complimentary breakfast was nice. Parking was convenient. Price is too high. First World problems, really. Mostly, it was fine.

Liked: Staff & service
You had to use the service elevator, which required going through a windy, dingy hallway. Elevator worked by had some peculairities--e.g., had to hit the up button, whether you or going up or down. There is 24 hour security on site, I didnt see any sign of potential trouble, but that did make me wonder. The cook was super friendly, and loved to answer questions about the history of Rochester, recommended places to eat (for greasy spoon, learn about a Rochester classic, the garbage plate!), and was extremely pleasant. he even told me about the Rochester Royals, who won an NBA championship in the 1940s. Great attitude and really helped close out my stay with a pleasant conversation. There is a continental breakfast.

the elevator was down so we had to use the service elevator which was ghetto AF then the staff was very unprofessional with loose cigarettes all over the place on the front desk and throwing trash at the security guard while i was standing there waiting for service. The front doors would only work sometimes and you'd have to push them open by hand. the room wasn't very clean either. would not stay here again.

DIRTY DIRTY DIRTY!!!

The night crew is terrible!! Due to a long drive in check in was late. Upon arrival, I'm greeted with the sight of the staff sitting on the desk and hanging out in the lobby. Now, I'm notified that the guest elevator is broken, but I can use to the staff elevator. This elevator looks like The Tower of Terror Elevator at Disney. So now I'm left to climb 6 flights with my younger siblings and all of our belongings @ 2am. Now I have arrived @ the room and guess what...Yep you got it, it's dirty. Hair and soap in the shower, dirty linens ( on a made bed mind you). When asked about switching was told no availability, but will send someone to clean the room. Ok so let's fast forward to 8am next day, no one has cleaned this room. I just drove 12 hrs and couldn't sleep nor wash my body!!! Talked to manager, which was very apologetic and surprised at my experience. Was reassured he was sending someone right away. So now it's 12 noon, my siblings and I have things to do, but remember no one was able to cleanse themselves. So long story short, lol, my siblings ended up staying somewhere else because I wasn't going to have them in this dirty room for a week.
