(Went for two nights in conjunction with the solar eclipse) First the good: Spectacular theming for the eclipse. Treated to welcome bags for the whole family filled with eclipse glasses, cosmic brownies, Sun Chips, etc. plus info on local gathering/viewing sites. Drink display on eclipse day with Sunny D, Capri Sun, and Sunkist soda. Just really cool. Quality pool/hot tub, good breakfast that included non-dairy milk options. Good-sized room (2 queen). The bad: Scammy from a point that their usual 2-day member flexible cancellation ballooned to 7-day cancellation solely for the eclipse. Rochester ended up cloudy and I couldn’t afford to lose that amount of money to pivot elsewhere when the 7-day clear forecast changed to clouds 3 days prior. As a result, the family missed out. They still made their money but that’s just crummy to do to people. This was a stretch for our family for a once in a generation experience, we are not wealthy by any means. As for everyday things, the thermostat only gives the illusion of control. We set it to 66 for overnight, but the actual room temp stayed at an uncomfortable 70. I messaged the front desk and they changed it to the “VIP” setting, “allowing” me to go down to 64…but the actual room temperature still stayed at 70 the entire time. My verdict (eclipse aside): Would be in the mix if I’m in the area again, but the room temp issue would give me pause.
