Ok stay but breakfast the next day was scary
Overall it was good. The guy working the front desk that checked us in was very friendly and helpful. On the other hand the gentleman working the breakfast area the following morning was very aggressive and comparative when we asked about coffee. He kept saying the pot to the left was regular coffee but we kept telling him it had “hot water” printed on the pit. He kept coming back saying I don’t care what it says I am telling you it is regular coffee. We were just taken aback since all we were trying to tell him is people will find it confusing but he refused to budge in his stance and wouldn’t even put a sign in front so other customers would not be confused as well. In fact a couple of guys costing from out of the country came up and your staff person was very combatative and aggressive to them as well. Unfortunately sue to that incident we cannot return. It was quite unsettling

Well located, for weekend parking was easy nearby but no unload area so be ready to walk with luggage.
Room was clean and comfy, check in desk was friendly and helpful.
Soundproofing is not the best; we heard drunks in hallway well up to 1am. Probably just our luck more than hotel issue.

I booked this hotel through hotels.com on the night of Saturday, September 21. Upon arrival I was told by the front desk staff that the hotel was completely booked up and the had no rooms. I called hotels.com about this and was told the hotel did not update there numbers, and if you look at hotels.com it still said there 5 rooms left. So basically both parties were blaming the other but here I am stranded, hours from home, without a room now. I sat on the phone holding for almost TWO HOURS while hotels.com staff was supposedly trying to find me a new hotel only to be told all hotels were fully booked. You mean to tell me every single room in every single hotel in the city of Albany was booked? I find that very hard to believe. I was not offered a room in a nearby city or town either. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was told someone would call me within 30 minutes to an hour. It is now the next night and I still haven’t received this call. I ended up having to drive home in the middle of the night and stop and sleep in my car because I was so tired which is unacceptable when I booked a hotel specifically to avoid this and enjoy a small weekend getaway. Who can I speak to about this because this is absolutely disgusting service on the parts of both the hotel and hotels.com. Both parties should be ashamed of themselves but yet neither suffer any sort of consequences, meanwhile I suffered multiple. This needs to be resolved and made right immediately.

The proper term likely is that this place has seen better days … and seems to be stuck there. The room lacked style and ambience with no view from the window. Telephone conversation from the neighboring room were audible; hallway traffic imposing on room environment. Beware of the slippery tiles in the bathroom when either coming out of shower or entering with socks. And: make a breakfast reservation somewhere else … even just for coffee.
