7.6/10 Good! (1,000 reviews)
Pros: nice view on high floor; firm bed Cons: centrally located in downtown Rochester where running into homeless transients and drug addicts is guaranteed day & night; limited dining options within hotel especially in the evening; vending machines? Serious? Hotel is old and it shows. Don't be fooled by the name and pictures. Conclusion: overall OK; unsafe area; there are better options close by. Will not stay here again.

There was an unfortunate leak in an above hotel room that damaged a front desk computer and backed up the check-in time/process. Staff was friendly. Rooms a bit dated, bathroom shower really needed to be re-grouted. I wish I had time to grab a glass of wine at the restaurant!
