This is a very cute well run B & B in a great part of Rochester. It’s on a quiet residential street but it is near both Park and Monroe Ave where there are a lot of good restaurants.

Fantastic BnB

We decided to try something different for our trip to Rochester and booked a BnB. It was a delightful stay in a beautiful Park Ave neighborhood. The BnB is within walking distance of the Park Ave restaurants and lots of fun. The staff was delightful, and helpful. The camaraderie with the staff and other visitors was fantastic! The only complaint was the bath/shower arrangement was awkward, getting in and out of the shower was a bit dicey. More safety rails would be helpful. In any case, we'll be back.

We love the area. The rooms are lovely and the staff is great. This time the WiFi was having problems and that was a real problem. They need to get that fixed. Reliable WiFi is very important.

We stayed one night. When we arrived, we already received an instruction in messsge on how to access the property. Everything was smooth. The room is clean and comfortable, and the area is quiet and welcoming. The owner provided a very nice French style breakfast. Overall, my stay was very satisfied.

Dartmouth House Review

Our stay there was very nice. Owners were very nice and friendly. Rooms were clean and stocked nicely. The only issue we had was that the house is not equipped for people that are handicapped. My husband broke his hip a year ago and had trouble navigating the stairs. Our first night there we were on the second floor, the second night we were moved to the third floor. He also could not take a shower because he had to climb into a tub to do so. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay there.

Lovely historic bed and breakfast

Lovely historic house. The Seneca room is spacious with clawfoot tub and shower stall in huge bathroom that takes you back in time. The Seneca room is on third floor and has access to furnished deck which was a great space for relaxation. The rooms all have lake names. The hosts were very gracious and breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend this bed and breakfast.

A cozy B&B in a historical city

The staff was very nice, and the food was good too. Guest rooms have ample space. That building is older than anyone else in this would, believe me since I asked, so you will know if other guests coming late. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.
