Overall good hotel when you can get it on a deal what they usually are asking is way too much run down a little lot of people in the pool that is not staying at the hotel but live close by hotel the way they talk.
VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED! The only housekeeping service we received was fresh Bath towels. No other service was given. Someone could have at least made our bed. I could not recommend this property to anyone, especially for the price that was paid.

Traveled 6 hours up to Rochester for our son’s graduation. Booked this room 8 months prior. 10 minutes to arrival we get a call from the hotel saying they had an issue with the block of rooms on our floor. Not sure what but Jennifer M told us they got us a room in another Marriott hotel a little further away. At first disheartened I was pleasantly surprised that the room was a great alternative. Surprising since it was a graduation weekend for two colleges. So no, I didn’t stay at the Double Tree but Jennifer M deserves to be recognized for her exemplary service. We had a great graduation weekend in Rochester. Double Tree even comped the room. Thanks for saving our weekend for us,
I have stayed at this hotel several times and all of the experiences have been wonderful until this one.
The day before ichecked the website as happy to see there was free shuttle service fromthe airport. So i called the hotel to confirm that there was shuttle service and how to access it. After going though the prompts on the phone i went for the operator. The phone rang for over 2 minutes and then i was disconnected. I called again, same thing rang for over 2 minutes and disconnected . I called a 3rd time and went to the resevation prompt. A woman answered, i told her i was flying in tonight and was inquiring about the shuttle. She asked if i wanted to make a reservation since I was arriving tonight. No i have one what about the shuttle. Her reply was i dont think we have one. Now having stayed there several times i know there is a shuttle. I informed the woman that on the Double Tree website it is advertised free shuttle service from the airport. Expedia also advertises shuttle servicen i booked the reservation through Expedia. So the woman agaun said no servuce but she would check. Thiughout the whole experience she was polite and seemed helpful. After being on hold for over 5 minutes she returned to the phone and apologized for having me wait so long. Then she said she checked with her manager and the was not shullte service. She then said something about another shuttle service and would i like to make a reservation and stated she had a phone number for me to call. This

Stayed for one night for university graduation. The hotel itself needs updating. The rooms dingy, bathroom tub sketchy. Had to find someone when checking in. Staff was friendly. Didnt have breakfast so don't know about that. Gave us warm and fresh cookies at check in. Indoor pool looked clean. Folks using it were having a good time. If had to come back would find another hotel.
Hotel is under renovation, so I did understand some issues, but some were unacceptable, especially for a Hilton properties. The rooms were ok, however ours was next to a stairwell and exit to the outside and construction workers were slamming the door all day rattling the wall, so make sure you insist on being away from exits/entrances. Here's where it was unacceptable: The hotel had no hot water on 5/11 (mother's day) and we could not even shower. Calling the front desk, I got an answer of " yea, well the place is under renovation - everything in this place sucks right now". This is a Hilton property for God's sake, not the motel 6 - make it right given the price per night. And Hilton - This is a college town - It is dead in June and July or even BEFORE in March! Why the hell would you schedule renovations for the entire month of May when you have the U of R and RIT have commencement as well as mothers day?!? The Gym was closed as well which my wife was looking forward to using. Also, I booked this back in November and was given NO update by the hotel (an e-mail would have been nice) that they were going to be doing renovations. What Hilton should have done is send and e-mail to notify and say something like due to the renovations, we will be giving you $25 off the cost of rooms, or free breakfast (which is not included normally)...Something - anything to compensate. Will not be staying here again.

i liked the swim in the beautiful pool and the atrium is beautiful. Everyone works hard and is nice. It was not a relaxing stay because so many things were dysfunctional.
I didn't like that in our room the fridge didnt work, the toilet overflowed, the tv was hooked up wrong, and housekeeping didnt restock the coffee/tea or get rid of the used cups, and did the most perfunctory job on making the bed. A broken glass was left in the hallway for the three days of our stay.
I think the problems stem from higher up.
You had to be a linebacker to push open the door entering into a dark room with non-functioning lights where you could not see by the glow of the broken TV. Staff was super polite, but just looked at you and said yeah we’re under renovation when they couldn’t get you a fixed room or even let you into the gym.
When we arrived we had to wait in line to check in, but there was no one at the front desk for 10 minutes. By the time an employee came there was a line of 5 families waiting to check in.
The TV in our room did not work. They did send someone to look at it, but it was not fixable.
Otherwise the room was clean and comfortable and the hotel was in a great location, lots of places to eat and shopping centers nearby.
Plumbing issues in shower, back up . Horrible experience. Major inconvenience. No other rooms available. Had to find another hotel.
Awful time.
