Great place near Rochester.
Friendly staff, clean room, comfortable, & modern. The morning breakfast was great. Price was reasonable. Parking was tight but that was because they wear black topping their back parking lot. Great place.

Beautiful!
The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. When we arrived we were surprised with a free upgrade. There is a restaurant attached that sounded amazing but we missed the opening hours. Would 100% stay there again.

Comfortable couples retreat
Front desk staff was very helpful. Room was super comfortable and clean. Love the mosaic tiled bathroom. Great bar - perfect dry dirty Martini. Breakfast was meh, but lots of places for that close by if you need something more than continental basic.
