About this property

Spectacular 2 BR, 1.5 BA close to all venues, hospitals & universities

We took our time renovating this 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath apartment so that you can enjoy all the comforts of its open space, great amenities and central location. Both bedrooms feature Queen sized beds, ample closets and carpeting. There's plenty of space to spread out and watch a movie, have dinner with friends or an intimate wine and cheese snack time with just the two of you.

This 2nd-floor apartment is close to the arts and entertainment districts, Rochester's best restaurants as well as our excellent universities and hospitals. Highland and Strong are just a short, side-streets commute away as is the Eastman and the Auditorium Theater. Perfect for a either a quick trip or a longer stay if you're assigned to Rochester for a few weeks.

Lovely, spacious and well maintained and sure to be your favorite home away from home!

We did not check-in so I can’t actually speak to the inside. We felt tricked by photos. There should be an exterior picture. We arrived late at night and didn’t feel safe. The home was still under construction so it looked rough late at night. I am hoping for a partial refund. The location was very close to downtown so if that is what you want, it’s great. We were in town for soccer.
This should be apart of the listing

This great two-bedroom apartment is located in a friendly neighborhood close to all the great things that Rochester has to offer: shops, museums, entertainment. The space is charming and comfortable. We had a minor hiccup when the weather was much hotter than normal and the window AC units were already removed. Our host brought a fan to make the living area more comfortable and offered generously to reinstall the units if needed. Both bedrooms are equipped with good ceiling fans, so that wasn't necessary. We would stay again and appreciated the great communication and response!

Perfect for RIT graduation weekend

What a gem! This was perfect for our 3 night stay for RIT graduation. An easy 15 minute drive to campus, quiet, lovely, walkable neighborhood. The apartment is comfortable, clean and adorable! Fun tavern within walking distance and great options for longer walks nearby (make sure to catch sunset at Cobb’s Hill Reservoir!). Highly recommended.

Visiting family 4 night visit

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Location and parking were great. The only suggestion I have is to change the table stools to chairs with a back. It was uncomfortable to sit for more than a few minutes or to play a game of cards. The bed and bathrooms were great.

Beautiful Booking!

This booking was beautiful, full of character and amenities. The host was quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and a pleasure to book with! Checking in, getting inside - all a breeze. Walking up those stairs and seeing the stained glass windows, what a treat! The central area is robust and would be great for a family or group. I had no complaints and would certainly book this location again!

Beautiful and quiet apartment

We had a very pleasant stay at Melanie's apartment which is located on a quiet street in a hip neighborhood within walking distance to two beautiful parks and several restaurants. The apartment was immaculate and its modern layout is great for offering privacy (bedrooms are not adjacent) if more than one person is staying, and being an upstairs unit the quiet is appreciated. Air conditioners work great for hot days. Communication was always fast and simple. Highly recommended. Thanks for being a great host Melanie!

Wonderful stay. Very quiet, safe neighborhood within easy distance to several Rochester venues. Apartment is immaculately clean, check-in a breeze and host is a great communicator. 5 minutes to Strong Museum and great restaurants in the Park Place / Berkeley St area. Off street parking and plenty of on-street parking if you prefer. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
