Inexpensive lodging near St Mary's: Please help!

Posted by Marska124 @marska124, Nov 24 11:14pm

I need to be in Rochester near St Mary's hospital for about 14 days while my husband undergoes open heart surgery. His surgery is scheduled for 11/29/24. We are from out-of-state. I need more information about inexpensive / charitable / nonprofit housing. I see 3 places - for transplants, cancer patients, and RMH for children & families. Are there others? We cant afford even a cheap hotel - even $100/night will add up to over $1400.00. Is there anything that might be less than half that amount? All suggestions are appreciated. I have no idea where to stay. It's too cold for me to be sleeping in our car!!!!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Visiting Mayo Clinic Support Group.

Is this walking distance to St Mary's? On the free shuttle route? That may be a consideration because parking at St Mary's is practically nonexistent. Looks like a lovely welcoming and caring place.

I stayed there for the 2nd time a couple weeks ago and highly recommend it. The current innkeepers are Jason and Steph, wonderful people. St. Marys is on 2nd, this place is one block over on 1st, right behind the Courtyard. They have guest parking. They will drive you where you need to go, just ask. You can also pick up the shuttle 1/2–1 block away.
