Default transportation

Billye--

My recollection was that the hotel was totally wheelchair accessible, as was everything else about Rochester. I remember taking meals in the Mayo underground eating court, and in a dining room off the lobby, and I recall that everywhere people where in wheelchairs or motorized scooters, walkers, on crutches. Everyone at the hotel was actually a hospital patient and the hotel functioned like part of the hospital. I chose it because it was the closest to the hospital (across the "street") and I believe it had a patient rate. The website has the price of $120/night for two beds. There's also a "Mayo patient rate" which includes free parking.

I'd suggest calling them about the wheelchair situation, but the fact that this is the closest is a big plus. At the time I had a whole lot of trouble walking, and that was part of what made my decision.

I think I got their name from the admissions people at Mayo, because they area closest.
