I had a mix of experiences during my stay. The hotel's location is pretty convenient for visits to the Mayo Clinic, which is great for patients. But, I encountered issues with cleanliness and service that left me disappointed overall.

My room was not in good shape. I found hair in the shower, and there were stains on the mattress. It felt quite unclean, which really affected my stay. Also, the amenities weren't working properly.
Service

The staff was sometimes helpful, but the service was inconsistent. There were long check-in lines, and at one point, there was only one person at the front desk. I also felt that my requests for a room change due to mobility issues were overlooked.

I enjoyed the family-friendly atmosphere at the Best Western Rochester, especially the indoor pool where my granddaughters had a blast. The location was perfect for our visits to the Mayo Clinic, which made the entire experience convenient. However, I did find some cleanliness issues that could use improvement, such as the hallways not being up to par. Overall, it felt more like a vacation despite some hiccups.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. On one hand, the location was really convenient for visiting the Mayo Clinic, and I appreciated the decent breakfast options that included a lot of choices. On the other hand, I ran into issues with cleanliness and maintenance, particularly in the common areas, which was disappointing. Overall, I think the hotel has potential, but it certainly needs some updating and better management.
