The room was clean and the price wasn't bad, although as with any Extended Stay there isn't much housekeeping once you arrive. TV cable package was minimal, with fewer channels than I've seen in almost every other hotel. Room had an OK mini-kitchen but was otherwise minimal.

After spending 2 months in Florida, it was necessary for me to return to Mayo Clinic again for more surgery. We've stayed at this Extended Stay over the past 12 months every month except the 2 months I've been in Florida.

Our recent trip to Mayo Clinic was something we were not looking forward to. There are numerous hotels to choose from in the Rochester area. We picked Extended Stay South because they offered convenience, a kitchen, privacy and were very easy to work with on our rates. We are grateful that we choose Extended Stay South. They lived up to... More

This is only the second time I've booked through Hotwire and didn't realize that, by doing so, you are only guaranteed a single bed. The hotel said I would have to pay an additional $15 to get two double beds (for my teenage son and myself). I was a bit dismayed, but it was paid for, so we didn't have... More
