Top Rochester Hotel Reviews

Hotel on Monroe, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"This was my first time staying at this facility. Getting the key using a code texted to me was hassle free. The room overall was pretty clean/nice. The shower head and pressure was great!! Always a big plus! The bed and pillows were too firm for my liking but I made due. I like where it is located on Monroe Ave. Wifi was easy to access. The heated toilet seat was a bit weird to me, so I turned it off. LOL :P All in all the hotel was better than I expected."

"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!"
