Baymont by Wyndham Henrietta/Rochester
The room was clean, updated and the bathroom was very nice. Shower worked great and the soap/shampoo dispensers are a nice option (in case you left yours at home).

DoubleTree by Hilton Rochester
Yes the toilet seat was broken and it was also not properly clean. The check in time wasn’t what was advertised. The only thing that was pleasant was the staff upon arrival.

Hampton Inn & Suites Rochester/Victor
A couple was screaming at 2:30 in the morning last night on the first floor for what had to be about 30 minutes. For all the common area cameras and being right around the corner from the front desk, they allowed it to go on. For what we paid, that should have been assessed and fast.
