We stayed at Newark Garden Hotel last week. We live out of state and were visiting a family member…read morein the nearby Newark-Wayne Hospital. Pros: - We were able to make last minute reservations without any trouble. - Staff was very friendly. - Hotel was dog friendly. In fact, whenever the staff saw my husband walking the dogs, they offered a treat. It was very thoughtful. - Pool was very clean. One day we were there was very warm and the whole family enjoyed a swim. - Breakfast was very nice. There was a lot more variety than I expected (bread, bagels, eggs, sausage, bacon, waffles, cereal, fruit, coffee, juice, etc.). - One day we were running quite late for breakfast. We probably arrived 10 minutes before closing. The owner was very gracious and accommodating. We were able to sit and enjoy our meal without being rushed. - They have a nice gym. I didn't get the opportunity to use it, but I peeked in and was pleasantly surprised with equipment variety. - Rooms were clean and neat. Included fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. My kids (2 & 3 years old) got a kick out of "living" somewhere new. They were especially fond of a kid-sized fridge. - Water pressure and temperatures in the shower were great. - Price was really reasonable. Cons: - In the pool area there were some random puddles of water. I think they were in the process of addressing some leaks from the roof. It'll be nice to see if it is fixed before our next stay. - The hallway smelled a bit like smoke near our room. We were by the back entrance; so, I assume people were standing outside smoking. Nothing the hotel could really do to fix this. Overall we were really happy with our stay. We visit the area a few times a year to see family. We'll definitely consider staying again.

I'm from Vegas. If this place was in Nevada it would be shut down. What a hole. Outside the…read morebuilding looks closed and way run down. As you enter the building it reeks of old cigarettes with a little weed mixed in. Rooms are simple but everything in them is literally from the 70's. The tv is so grainy you can barely see it. 2 of the outlets don't work. So you go to call the front desk there are no phones in the rooms. We asked were the ice machine is but found out it's missing or broken. This is a crap hole. Shower only comes out super hot. Across the hall a lady thinks it's ok to let her 2 year old run in the hall to scream and play. Don't stay here. Sleep in your car it's much cleaner and better. Good night.

It is cluttered with Victorian-style furniture and knick-knacks which makes it feel very homey. Since it is a modified old house the soundproofing isn't that great, but when I was there it wasn't busy so it wasn't a problem. The proprietors are very friendly and live on site in an attached set of rooms (the B & B kitchen is their kitchen as well). They are willing to accommodate any dietary needs - just tell them ahead of time so they can purchase the appropriate food for breakfast. Breakfast is served formally in the dining room (on fine china!) at whatever time you request. You are able to make yourself tea whenever you need, and I was able to use the fridge to store some leftovers I had. I highly recommend spending the extra $15 for the Rose room - the jacuzzi was really nice after a long work day!

Don't drink so don't care, the service you could never get at a hotel and looks like they really go crazy for Christmas, can't wait to come back. This is going to be a definite regular place to come to get away and it's right in the heart of the little town of Avon, NY, close by Avon Drive inn movie theater.

I have to give credit - sort of - to a nearby Hampton Inn, for giving me the opportunity to enjoy a…read morestay at The Inn On Broadway. I had originally considered the Hampton, and 15 days before my arrival in Rochester, I discovered The Inn. It had a comparable price but maybe not as much breakfast choices. Two days later, when I went to make my reservation at the Hampton, I discovered that they raised their room rates 15% since the last time I checked... supply and demand on their part I guess. Well, that made The Inn rate more than competitive, and the obvious choice for my stay. The Inn does offer a light continental breakfast, but they offer some things I wouldn't have gotten elsewhere. One was the charm of an older building with nice renovations. My room had more "character" than I would have had otherwise, and that included a large antique bathtub and a gas fireplace. Every person with whom I interacted was incredibly friendly and helpful. Vanni's Lounge downstairs was fun as well (separate review). And I got a slight discount for having a 3rd night in my reservation on a weeknight. I think that was a fair trade-off for missing out on a few Honors points.

Recently enjoyed a delightful stay at The Inn on Broadway…read more Truly, what a gem of an inn. I was traveling for work and was meant to fly from White Plains to Rochester mid week. However, the stormy weather had my flight delayed, delayed, delayed. Seeing that I'd be pulling into Rochester later and later, I decided to see about driving. This got me to Rochester earlier in the evening but I was pooped. The Inn on Broadway offered a warm welcome after a hectic day of travel. They have easy parking very close to the entrance (felt very safe). They offer valet if you're heading there for the restaurants but they don't valet for guests of the inn. Again, not a big deal because the parking is so convenient. The lobby is gorgeous. I was there during the holidays and it was tastefully decorated and brought the festive vibes. The woman at the front desk was excessively kind and got me all checked in. I was tired and really just wanted to order deliver (doordash etc) to my hotel room. I wasn't certain if this was ok with the restaurant in house but fortunately, she assured me it was fine and even hand delivered my door dash order to my room (in addition to giving me recommendations for a garbage plate, a Rochester specialty--I still haven't had one but my next visit I'm determined!) My room was completely comfortable. It was the perfect size to feel cozy without being too small. There was a window seat by the window which offered a nice view of the city. I love that they have Aveda shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the shower (as well as lotion and hand soap by the sink). Aveda is top notch and it's nice not to sacrifice quality hair care while traveling. I honestly have nothing but the best things to say about my stay here and wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Get to it!

So very disappointing…read more Let me start by saying that I love bed-and-breakfasts, and I like how a good b&b costs about the same as a nice hotel room, but is more personal, individual, private. At least, it can be. In over fifteen years of traveling and staying at b&b's, I have seen them range from cozy and quaint to resplendent and regal. They've all been wonderful. In July I traveled to Fairport with my 3 y.o. daughter and her sitter for a local Korean daycamp. We booked a room to stay at the Clematis Inn, and my first interactions with Theda, the innkeeper, were pleasant. She was courteous and kind, even offering to bake gluten-free pastries instead of regular ones - my sitter can't have any wheat gluten. (I know how much more expensive the gluten-free flours are, so I appreciated this gesture). We discussed arrangements for my toddler's sleep and camp schedules, I mailed a check, and we eagerly awaited our vacation. Immediately after we arrived, I could sense something a bit "off" about this place. Yes, it is clean and pretty, and Yes the pastries are incredibly delicious (if I were reviewing the pastries, I'd give 5 stars) - however with comments ranging from "I keep a quartz crystal here to deflect harmful rays from my inn" to "I was a federal agent, but I am only allowed to tell my guests certain things about it" - I could see that Theda was not completely... hinged, let's say. Normally, an eccentric innkeeper would just color a good story, but I'm afraid this story ends badly. It started with the odd assertion by Theda that she was turning down other guests so that she could devote more time to us, and specifically, to my daughter. As a business owner, I found this implausible; as a mother, it was creepy. Things culminated to a head when we made up a bed with clean sheets - heaven forbid. Apparently Theda was hurt that we used sheets that were of "personal value" to her (though they were in the linen closet of a guest room), and she was offended that we did not ask her for permission to make the bed. But, the oddness took a turn for the worse when the innkeeper, between crying and yelling about her sheets, snapped at my toddler. That was the final straw for me, and we checked into a hotel that night. Travelers to Fairport, NY: beware of Theda at the Clematis Inn. You have friendlier, cleaner, more professional options elsewhere in town.

We had an excellent stay with Theda, the innkeeper. This was our second stay with her, having…read morestayed with her a couple of years ago when on a trip to the Fairport area. Theda remembered us from our prior visit when we called, and was very gracious in welcoming us back! Theda had a jug of ice water with orange slices ready and waiting in our room for us, and cut short an errand run to be there to greet us. As it was previously, the room was immaculate as was the attached bathroom. Both were beautifully decorated, and the bathroom had a whole bunch of (many organic) personal care items. The linens were very luxurious and were high quality. Breakfast each morning was delicious and made from organic, fresh, and local ingredients. She specifically purchased whole milk and fresh blueberries for our 2 year old. When she found out that our 2 year old's favorite berries were blackberries, those appeared on the table the next morning for him. She was extremely kind to our son, and went out of her way to interact with him. Theda was very helpful with local directions, activities, and places to eat while we were there which was great as it was a holiday weekend and a lot was closed. I would highly recommend a stay at the Clematis Inn!

The cost of breakfast for 2 was more than the gift card and we were out of pocket for the difference and yet our room rate included breakfast. Only saw the one of the owners twice as it appears he lives off site. Website is very misleading. This is not a bed and breakfast, it is a very highly overpriced Inn. Notice the dates of the reviews. They are very old.
