Great place to getaway!
My Fiance and I just stayed here for a Post-Birthday/Anniversary/Valentines Day celebration. These guys did a phenomenal job of accommodating us and really going that extra mile to make our adventure even more memorable.

We are from out of town and we stayed here on Xmas Eve for the second year in a row. Had a few local family members over for dinner for a couple hours - It was a nice accommodating and quiet place, and my husband and I enjoyed having the two of us stay over with our two dogs. It’s a perfect place for a couple, and there was enough room for our pups to have room to move about.

I love this place and it’s the only hotel I will stay at when visiting family in Rochester. My only negative is that this place doesn’t have an elevator for public access which makes it difficult to maneuver luggage upstairs (especially if you have a small child or a disability). But if that can be fixed this would be the best place to stay in Rochester!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at S31 Colors Loft, and overall, it was a delightful experience! The loft itself is beautifully designed, with vibrant colors and excellent decor that create a welcoming atmosphere. The spacious layout made it easy to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the city.
The location is fantastic, with plenty of restaurants, shops, and attractions within walking distance. I especially enjoyed the nearby parks, which provided a nice escape from the hustle and bustle
Two critiques, the room needed a heavier blanket and the shower had ants.

Amazing!
What an absolute gem! very spacious! ( 800 SQ FT!) loved how they still kept so much charm from the original building and added it with very cool furniture and decor. Perfect location and near downtown. I was in town for a business trip and when I told them where I was staying, they were shocked! They were amazed Rochester has such a "cool & hip" hotel. They said they would also start referring people over. great for families as well, especially because of the space.

Not as cool as it looks.
Had to climb three huge flights of stairs to get to room. No elevator no luggage racks. Help was offered but didn’t seem fair as concierge was only a little younger than us. Room was ok but kitchen stuff was dirty. No way to cook anything and I had to clean before I put my food in refrigerator. Huge curtains were very dusty but necessary to keep out the lights of the university across the street.
