The staff was very nice. That's the good. The 1st room they gave me room 409, was 81 degrees when I walked in. The air did not work. They moved me to another room. There were no ice machines on the floor. I had to go all the way to the front desk to get ice. They put another customer in room 409. He had to change rooms too. The pool was under construction. My room faced a side street. Cars were rev in engines and screeching tires. Saturday morning the fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate. The amount I paid per night was too high for what I got.

Our check in was great. After that, it was downhill. One elevator was broken, no ice machines worked, our sink was closed causing the water to fill the sink, the coffee maker did not work....when i reported the issues to the desk, they looked at me with a blank stare. I thought the wyndam would do better than this.

Terrible stay, dilapidated property

The stay started with the hotel manager telling us the room we reserved “didn’t exist”. After a large argument at the front desk he finally gave us a room with enough beds for the people we had. Next, we learned on day two that housekeeping only comes “every 3-5 days”. Nice. Guess we will hold onto our moist towels. The AC didn’t work. The carpet was “moist”. The complimentary breakfast was bad breads and coffee. One elevator wasn’t working. The one that was working was on its last leg. Everything was dirty. The protected parking lot had no security (just disheveled security booths and gates). There was a full rap concert in the second floor ballroom on our second night, shaking the hotel. The delivery pizza place across the street was great, and the fireworks from the baseball game were nice out the window. Don’t stay here.

The staff was great. Very nice and helpful. The room was pretty clean but overall, it’s in need of some cosmetic care. The TV was hard to figure out; I couldn’t get the volume up high enough to hear. Nice to have a refrigerator. Weird that there are no ice machines on the floors. The front desk clerk had to get it on the second floor. One elevator was broken. The place just felt kind of old and run down a bit. The complimentary breakfast was nice. Parking was convenient. Price is too high. First World problems, really. Mostly, it was fine.

You had to use the service elevator, which required going through a windy, dingy hallway. Elevator worked by had some peculairities--e.g., had to hit the up button, whether you or going up or down. There is 24 hour security on site, I didnt see any sign of potential trouble, but that did make me wonder. The cook was super friendly, and loved to answer questions about the history of Rochester, recommended places to eat (for greasy spoon, learn about a Rochester classic, the garbage plate!), and was extremely pleasant. he even told me about the Rochester Royals, who won an NBA championship in the 1940s. Great attitude and really helped close out my stay with a pleasant conversation. There is a continental breakfast.

the elevator was down so we had to use the service elevator which was ghetto AF then the staff was very unprofessional with loose cigarettes all over the place on the front desk and throwing trash at the security guard while i was standing there waiting for service. The front doors would only work sometimes and you'd have to push them open by hand. the room wasn't very clean either. would not stay here again.
