Perfect apartment
We were in Rochester for three nights and opted for this apartment for its central location and historic neighborhood. So glad that we did. The apartment was perfect in every way. Tastefully decorated, comfortable furniture, very comfortable bed, and absolutely everything one might need in a kitchen. There were little touches that made us feel welcome, such a cozy bathrobes and fresh flowers. Communications with the owner was easy. I highly recommend this apartment!

Lovely half-basement in the heart of Corn Hill
Margaret was a phenomenal host. She directed us to a number of fun Corn Hill activities and met all of our needs. Very attentive and communicative. This VRBO is stocked with everything you'll need for a long-term stay. The surrounding area is beautiful during the summer! Many coffeeshops and a public library nearby. Highly rated VRBO for a reason.

A fantastic base for Rochester visitors
I was in town for a bit more than 2 weeks for a fellowship at the Strong Museum of Play. I needed a place within walking distance and with a good kitchen (instead of having to go out to eat all the time). This place fit my needs to the letter. I walked everywhere I needed to go - I only needed to use Instacart for two grocery deliveries. I was so happy to be somewhere that was walking friendly and had great privacy and plenty of space. The apartment had everything I needed to cook, do laundry, and just feel comfortable after a long day of research. Margaret was an excellent host who left me to my own devices. I hope to come back to Rochester again and if I do, I would absolutely stay here again.

Adorable Apartment
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay in this apartment. The neighborhood was lovely and close to everything. The apartment was very sweet, clean, decorated nicely and well appointed. Our biggest complaint was the bed - it was hard and uncomfortable, nothing a topper couldn’t resolve. I really appreciated the approach of the host - there if we needed her, but gave us our space and didn’t overwhelm us with information, rules, check-in and -out instructions.

The property looked just like the pictures. Everything worked and was in very good condition. We liked the off-street parking so we didn't have to move our vehicle every day. We slept well. It was below freezing outside, but the floor was warm. Hope we can stay again next time we are in town.

If you are visiting Rochester, you HAVE to stay in this apartment!! The apartment is located in a lovely, picturesque area. It is beautifully decorated and so comfortable.

The place was impeccable. Beautiful decoration, clean, peaceful and quiet. I was 100% satisfied with the accurate place pictures and description in VRBO overall information. The Owner was very gentle and gave me the explanations needed about the place and she came to me the last day to make sure that I was ok with my stay. which I was without any doubt. I would recommend this place with no reservations...Thanks M,M.

Absolutely fabulous, every aspect. The host went above and beyond in so many ways. The place is in a great location. It has all the amenities you could hope for. Don't let a bottom apartment fool you. She even has heat running under the floor tiles in the kitchen and bathroom. We enjoyed meeting Magaret and would hope to stay here again if in the Rochester area.
