No fane in the bathroom, the shower head too high. I do not like to get my hair wet, so I wash myself off holding the shower head, not possible. The night crew at the front desk was less than friendly

Generally good. A little worn. Go to the second hand and buy some new bar stools. I'll never understand why motel room heaters are always noisy, next to the bed and blow in your face.

Close to Mayo Clinic
The facility is getting aged and room had an odor to it. Informed front desk of odor and they said it would be addressed, but they also noted that a facility update is planned for the near future. The kitchen was a nice amenity for our stay. Breakfast was great and staff was super friendly and helpful. The subway connection to the Mayo Clinic is awesome and convenient.

My window was broken, but they taped it to stop the draft. The furnace sounded like popcorn or electric going shocking something inside the furnace room. Sofa couch felt 20 years old.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review regarding your stay at the Residence Inn. I do apologize for the condition of the room. I have forwarded your comments the Regional GM and the GM of the hotels. We are in line to get a renovation at the end of this year. Again my apologies.

Best place to stay for convenience
We've stayed here a few times, as it is so convenient in the winter months, for Mayo appt's. We find the front desk people lacking in training, but it's a sign of the times. The rooms are very comfortable and very clean. Also, it is nice a quiet. We will stay here again, but wish the staff could at least say thank you at check-out or ask if everything was okay.

I asked for a quiet room away from the elevator. I was put in a room closest to the elevator, and then my room was above a very noisy hotel generator that ran all night. Sheets were very starched and itchy.

We do get busy at times, and it could have been that was the only thing we had available because of extensions during your visit with us. I will forward your comments to the GM of the hotel.Again, my apologies that you did not have a great stay.

This hotel is in a very good location to walk a couple blocks to Mayo/Gonda/ Charelton buildings for appointments. Also for patients of Methodist hospital. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Welcoming attitude. The only negative is that the construction of the building leaves drafts from the windows and very cold floors. The beds are on the firm side and the linens are good. The kitchenettes are well supplied but just very used and a little tired. You can't beat the location though if you have medical appointments.

The only thing that this hotel has going for it is the fact that the other hotels around it are just as badly maintained, and the closeness to the Mayo Clinic. This place needs needs fixing up.

Place was clean. Staff were friendly & attentive, providing extra condiments, hangers, etc. right away when we asked for them. Not to mention perfect location, 3-min walk to Mayo Clinic. But property seemed old, and seemingly kept on a tight budget. (Very basic coffee maker, with no auto-off. Easy to leave on all night/all day.) Free breakfast was minimal -pre-packaged granola bars, cereal; but that could be COVID-related.

We stayed two nights in a one-bedroom suite (room 313). We found it clean and well-appointed and relied heavily on the kitchen for meals. The proximity by subway to Mayo Clinic building was a true selling point as others mention. On the last day, we learned that we would need to stay another day. We'd already checked out of our room, but Residence Inn staff responded quickly, cleaning our room and having it ready for our return two hours later. They were spectacular. We don't want to return to Mayo but will definitely stay here if we do. We used paid, indoor parking and were allowed to remain parked there well after check-out time. We also made use of the complimentary breakfast and lobby freezer, purchasing Haagen Das ice cream, bottled water, and other munchies. Caribou Coffee is a block away.

Works when your trip is for medical care business.
Lodging in downtown Rochester is often for medical care. This setting is connected to the subway level of the Mayo Clinic downtown campus. The suite with a kitchen met our need for flexible, in-room meals and snacks. Staff were accommodating regarding wifi connection challenges and custom housekeeping services. Met our needs and I booked again for the next trip.

The convenience of getting to our appointments using the pedestrian subway connecting to all the buildings we needed to get to. The understaffed hotel required us to get our towels and toiletries from the front desk and it made you feel like you were going to jail....

I liked that the property was connected via subway to Mayo's various buildings. For $180/night, I think the bed could have been better (newer). There was some mold in the bathroom underneath the soap holder.

Friendly and Helpful Staff
Staff was very helpful and friendly. We were missing some items from our kitchen and they found us what we needed on request. Bed was to soft for my husband but I slept well. He also complained that it was noisy during the night. He is usually a heavy sleeper so was surprised he commented on it. Furniture wasn't super comfy but we were only there one night, if we had stayed longer it would have been an issue.
