William, Syracuse

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The Rochester is under renovation, it's a bit dusty and quite noisy (hammering and drilling). I had the room 036, and it's in the basement level, and the AC in that room doesn't work, which makes it quite uncomfortable for the majority of my stay due to quite a few warmer days. The first staff that came to check keep saying he can feel the AC (it was blowing warm air or room temp air, but definitely not cold air), I had to tell him to feel the AC in the hotel lobby to understand how the air in the room was actually warm, very frustrating and infuriating. Then the front desk suggested to keep the thermostat at 20 or 21, tried both for hours and didn't work, the staffs ultimately send 2 fans into my room to make it more bearable. The hotel overall is not bad, situated in a decent and quiet location, but just not when it's under renovation, and definitely don't stay at room 036 during the summer.
