Stay was comfortable and location was great. Our reservation was for six people but it didn’t look like the room was prepared - not enough towels, no bedding for the pullout couch. We had to call for these items. The room was also not cleaned every day which is problematic for a six person reservation. It would have been nice for breakfast to be included as well. Other than that, a great option for downtown Rochester, NY!

We booked the King bed suite. There is a good amount of space for both the living room and the bedroom. However, some of the furnishings and textiles (e.g. carpets, couch) either had stains or just a bit drab / dirty. No pot lights and a lot of the free standing lights did not work. The whole suite needs updating and it's showing it's age. The public areas of the hotel are well appointed, however. The only reason I booked this hotel was to have a separated bedroom for our two kids. I would not be booking there again. Would rather book the more updated Hampton Inn across from the Strong museum (our friends booked there and raved about it).

The hotel and staff are phenomenal. Rochester in general I found to be unsafe to be walking around with small children. There are a lot of homeless around the area in general and the city doesn't have many friendly walking areas in the downtown.

Short walk to the Museum of Play. Nice room and good restaurant onsite. I was disappointed that the room wasn't stocked with shampoo, or extra blankets (we had a room with a pullout couch) , and when I needed a pen and paper I realized there wasn't any in the room. We stayed at 7 hotels over 10 nights, the Hilton was the first to not have paper/pen, shampoo, extra bedding.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Arrival signage would be helpful-where to park while checking in/etc. The City owned parking situation caused confusion for several guests. The city employed garage attendant seemed more intent on giving folks a hard time as opposed to just simply being helpful when asked. The hotel elevators seemed to make excessive noise that we had not experienced anywhere before. Due to our rooms proximity to the elevator, it was unavoidably noticeable most hours of the day (every time anyone called for an elevator, we knew it). We were there during what we understood to be an abnormal heat wave. The elevator area and hall to our room was quite hot during the day (quite warmer than outside).

The parking garage needs better signage and better markings to identify where cars are parked and where the entrance to the hotel is.

If you're sensitive to scents, then this skip here
While the property is well situated downtown (great restaurant options in the neighborhood, and close to the highways), the parkade is undergoing construction and super confusion on it's own - the construction just makes it even more confusing! The hotel is good; however, if you're sensitive to scents, then you'll want to stay elsewhere. They use a green apple air freshener throughout the hotel (lobby, hallways, elevator) and it is VERY overwhelming - especially in smaller areas like the elevators. There's no escaping the scent, and it even embedded itself in my clothes - - to be honest, it put me right off staying there again.
