Stayed here for two nights, the cons outweigh the pros for my stay, and I usually stay at HI Express... Cons - tv didn't work in my room - No delivery of newspaper to your room, you have to get it in the breakfast area each day - small plates only in the breakfast area - internet extremely slow most... more

My family and I stayed here for 4 nights in August 2008. I went to the State education building each day and they just hung out at the pool or walked uptown. The hotel is newly renovated and very nice. The staff was more than friendly. We did have a few bumps, but they were quickly fixed and the manager... more

We recently travelled to Albany, NY as a meeting place to continue a two week trip into Canada.

I stayed at this hotel for one night 8/3/08 because I was attending a training program held at the same hotel. I was very pleasantly surprised by how nice my room was.

The hotel is located next to a busy highway, but... more

I had a pleasant experience while visiting Albany. This location was perfect for me. The staff was very nice and accomodating. I really loved the bed. Breakfast was good and fully stocked and fresh. The only reason I cannot give it an Excellent rating was that the carpet seemed a little worn in my room and the curtains were dirty... more

I stayed for 1 night as I needed to fly out of Albany the next day. It was a great place to resty my head. The desk staff were awesome! Very accomodating as I only stayed for a handful of hours. more
