I've stayed at a Staybridge Suites before in another state and it was an excellent experience so I…read morehad solid expectations before checking into this Rochester location. It did ***not*** disappoint at all. There's so much to rave about - let's start with the A+ location - you have so many conveniences within very close walking distance - Costco Aldi Cub McDonalds and 2 sit down restaurants. And there's even more food options a short walk away. Hands down one of the best things about this hotel. Upon check in, I noticed live music from the lobby and was informed there's hospitality weeknight Monday-Wednesday where a modest offering of food and entertainment is free to guests. Now is it extravagant food? Of course not. But the fact that any FREE hot food in the evening is almost unheard with other hotel chains. I think it's a tremendous offer for guests checking in around the dinner hour to have a light snack, if they choose, without having to immediately seek out dinner options. It's a really nice way to settle in first. The property is well maintained, as are the rooms. I found my king suite to be spacious with more than enough room for work and personal needs. The only feedback I have is sound between floors. I was woken up in the middle of the night by routinely loud neighbors upstairs, which was disruptive. I remedied it by turning the central fan on auto to drown out the sound. Breakfast offerings are decent and pretty standard for free breakfast. But seeing fresh blueberries was a treat and a welcome change. I also appreciated the to go boxes set out for those who needed breakfast on the go. I never see that at other hotels. I think it's the small and meaningful gestures that make Staybridge Suites a personal favorite of mine and why it's one of my hotels of choice when I travel. If I'm back in Rochester again, I'm staying here.

This place was actually pretty cool and we had a great time, especially aided by the fact that a band was playing and the atmosphere was very lively. The burgers themselves are pretty OK/good. We each had the swiss burger and the buns were lightly toasted, the mushrooms and tasty and the burger patty itself was OK (a tad overcooked, but decent). All in all, it needed a little ketchup, but was tasty. We also got a choice of tots, fries or slaw with the burger, which is nice to see (and no upcharges for either choice). All in all, for under $20, we had a nice evening meal and got to enjoy a live band. The crowd is older, but the place is lively and efficient on the right nights. Don't be intimidated -- you may need to seat yourself once you walk in, we were a little confused when we walked in, but as we sat down someone took our order and things were smooth from there on it. TLDR; not fancy, older veteran mess hall with dirt cheap prices, a bar and sometimes live music.

The room we got has a queen or king size bed and a pull out couch. There was one pillow for the pullout couch and one blanket. The pillow had make up stains on it - it was so dirty. The sheets on the pull out were so dirty we had to put towels down to sleep on. I called the front desk and the guy blamed it on Expedia (didn't use expedia), and said we got the wrong room, but didn't offer to fix the situation. There was a used gauze pad with blood on it on the bedroom floor. How could that not have been swept up?? Therez also a bandaid on the smoke detector. After a 7 hour drive up here and the emotional hell we're in right now, we didn't have the energy to fight it. Ill deal with it later next week when we get home. Thankfully this is a one night stay. There are literal blood stains on the pullout couch sheets, and all thats separating those from my kids are the towels we put down and the clothes they're sleeping in. I wouldn't recommend this hotel if my life depended on it. I use hotwire every time I travel (every one to two months, about 8-9 times a year. I have never stayed in a more disgusting hotel. We never got the pillow the desk clerk said was forthcoming to replace the dirty one. This is a Marriott hotel. I would never put my name on this hotel. I hope future travelers see this and think twice about this place. When you come to be close to the Mayo Clinic, youre here for a serious reason. The hotels that profit off of Mayo should consider this and understand that the customers need a place of quiet comfort they can retreat to. EDIT: A replacement pillow and a half (kid you not) finally showed up. I wish I were lying when I say the replacements had mascara all over it. I want to go sleep in my car. If I weren't here with my elderly mother and 2 children, I'd be in the car on the way to a different hotel. Pictures below are proof of everything I'm complaining about. Other things they need to fix that are more minor - how about more than one paper cup so everyone can have a drink? How about lotion in the bathroom? How about sweeping the floor?? This place is just disgusting.

Simply stated - I left something important to me in my hotel room. It was a favorite concert tshirt of mine that I've had for years...I didn't realize it until I was too far away to turn around and get it. I called immediately. Sandy answered and went to my room, 308, and recovered my beloved Gully Boys tshirt. She was polite and kind. She promised it would go out the following Monday cuz it was the weekend. My stay was 9/12. So now it's October 7th and I still have nothing. I followed up several times and spoke to various people about it. Most recently, I spoke to Doug who was belligerent with me and told me "not to be upset" despite the fact that nobody would return my calls, provide me a tracking number or, for that matter, apologize for the situation. The mistake of leaving my property in the room was mine and I totally get that. But the treatment I received from Doug as well as the reluctance to follow up with me was atrocious. This hotel is utterly forgettable any only exists because of its proximity to the Mayo Clinic. Whatever you do, don't leave anything there cuz you won't ever see it again. Thanks again to Sandy for trying so hard to help but beyond her efforts everybody here could use a refresher course in hospitality. Woof.
