If that is the Homewood Suites by Hilton Rochester/Greece it says this:

Fully equipped kitchen with a full-size refrigerator and cookware
Microwave and coffee-maker
Two-burner stove and dishwasher
Dining table with chairs
32-inch flat panel TV and on-demand movies
Complimentary high-speed wired and wireless internet access via fiber optics
Two speaker phones with voice mail

Nothing about an oven, and I don't see one in the photos.

Ok. Yes... You're all right... No oven.i saw the dishwasher and thought it was an oven... But that is ok. The main thing I needed was the stove top. Yes,i can take it to where I'm going and bake it there.

I've already packed the dishes. I have 2 Pyrex with lids and 2 small skillets. They weigh <20 pounds. I've decided against the knife because I'm not sure they allow that in your luggage. I've tried the throw away ones before. It's ok. If you had these enchiladas, you'd understand. Every time I make them at potlucks, people go nuts!!! I have to hand serve them so everyone (i like) gets some. My family deserves it.

There's a goodwill shop 5min walk from that hotel where you may find 2nd hand cooking items on the cheap, plus a Wegmans (supermarket), target, and walmart all within 5min drive.

StacyB, thank you for telling me to print out the directions. That's something I've been putting off... And of course, my printer is out of ink. I have been able to manage to print in greyscale... And have printed out my wicked tickets.

Going to check in for my flight in 2 hours.

Changed the car reservation in buffalo to return it to buffalo... And put it in my boyfriend's name, since he's the one with a credit line... It went up in price to $50 a day. Can't find anything cheaper. But they say there is a big demand for them in buffalo for those days, so I'm just happy to have one.

Need to track down my son's birth certificate...i know I just had it... Somewhere safe.

I'm sorry if I stressed out anyone.i really do appreciate all the help.

Going to leave for the airport tomorrow at least by 730pm. I have a 2 hour drive(flagstaff)... Looked into parking at the airport. Found one in the terminal for $50 something total $9 a day. Seems reasonable.

I know I'll have a hard time sleeping tonight... Like waiting for Santa.

Made it to the roosevelt...holy cow!!! cant even say about the driving...had to close my eyes several times and it looked like we would get into an accident like...the whole time...

trip cost us $86...yes, im sure it was well worth it!!! cant imagine in the shuttle...

we got stuck in the turn style at the hotel...must have been the kitchen sink...my boyfriend got in the same space as me and the bag was getting caught up and he kept telling me to push and i was pushing and laughing the whole time. my son was in front and he made it through just fine... i laughed the entire way to the elevator...

So... OUR SUITE has 2 bathrooms and we are sooooooo happy to be inside ...away from that traffic...for a minute. amazing that the room is ready.its huge!!! and the couch does pull out into a bed...got the wifi going and next...finding something to eat...

Do you mean that you got stuck in the revolving door?

Enjoy your adventure!

Fun to watch your adventure unfolding.

You could charge us to watch on youtube. Potential crowd source funding for your trip...

some might call it tacky, but I'd chip in...this is more fun than paying for a movie at the theater.
