Horrible

The thermostate was not working. It was dirty. The tv was mounted in a way where youd have to stand and watch it. There was no chair to watch it from and you couldnt see the screen from the bed.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities

We loved the location, very close to Mayo Clinic and downtown. Furthermore the price was attractive relative to other places. We felt we received good value for what we paid. The window coverings were broken. The floor was dirty. We could never get the TV sound to work. It needed another chair to sit in. The bed was not very comfortable. It was hard to keep the water in the shower. The heat was impossible to regulate

Hello!
My name is Rita and I'm a startup business owner/airbnb host /foodie who loves to seeks new food experiences, loves history, loves to meet people, loves to be a host and travel around the world (for food of course!). And over the last 3 years, I've hosted thousands of travelers/Mayo patients/Mayo visitors/Mayo employees all over the world in our properties. And I believe I got the most reviews in Rochester (in airbnb), but I am new at HomeAway. Before booking with me, make sure to read the reviews of my previous guests and feel free to contact me if you have any questions about my listings. :) Looking forward to host you!!
