Spark by Hilton Rochester University Area

Spark by Hilton Rochester University Area

10/10 Excellent
"Room was clean, well maintained. Beds were comfortable, good pillows. Hot water in shower, soap, conditioner and body wash provided. Breakfast was a bagel bar. Also had yogurt in a machine, boiled eggs. Coffee 24 hours a day. Spark seems to be Hiltons low cost brand, where they bought a hotel and made the rooms nice. Hallways and lobby small and not always looking the best, but it is the actual room that counts and it served us well through our last trip. Will definitely be looking for a Spark next time we travel."

Woodcliff Hotel and Spa

Woodcliff Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good
"I had an opportunity to attend a weeklong yoga training in a burg nearby and wanted quiet accommodations within an easy Uber/Lyft drive with a restaurant for an evening meal after a long day. The Woodcliff fit the bill all around! The room was not fancy, yet it was large, clean and most importantly quiet. The restaurant had a nice menu of well-prepared meals, and the staff was very attentive. The 6 days stay exceeded my expectations! There is a sweet coffee shop for a light breakfast that helped me ease into each day - which was bonus added!"

10/10 Excellent
"One of the best renovations I’ve seen to date. Staff was excellent and very friendly. Absolutely loved the bed and very large bathroom. Very quiet neighborhood. I accidentally left windows down on rental car one night and no one took anything from vehicle which had sunglasses. Will only stay at this location in the future. Highly recommended!!!"
