Attractive within its class. Saturday night drunks in room below us, we got no restful sleep. A nicely maintained property & good value within its class; conveniently located. BUT hotel staff not altogether friendly or helpful when we complained about excessive noise at 3:00 AM. It's their job to investigate and confront--not the task of their paying guests who are just trying to get some sleep!

The hotel room was built for people under 5'5". The ceilings were very low especially in the shower and I had to duck my head down to wash my hair and I'm only 5'7". The room was small too. The hotel was clean and the complimentary breakfast was good but the bed was hard and at night I could see a light coming from underneath the tub - still not sure where it was coming from. Not the worst hotel I've stayed in but probably wouldn't stay there again.

This hotel is ideally located across the street from the SUNY Albany Campus. It is the perfect location for parents who are visiting their children at the college. However, the hotel is in desperate need of serious updating. The linens and blanket were threadbare. The room needed new rugs, a new bathroom, and paint. I will never return to this hotel again, unless there are major renovations made.

i've stayed here a few times a year for more than 25 years. and years ago, this hotel had no competition; now it does. to compete, it needs new beds, new carpeting, new wallpaper, major updating, ...it needs a lot. staff is nice enough. but sometimes there's almost nobody there to get you an extra blanket or pillow, because they run the place so lean. at night, it can be noisey, and sometimes there's only 1 person onsite. there's new owners since the last time i was there and they seem to have fired some of the better, more helpful people. they used to have a wonderful hot breakfast. they have something they call a hot breakfast now, but it's self serve, and sometimes there's not even any clean plates. my understanding is they're turning this into a superbudget type hotel, which attracts a lot of riff raff. i used to love this hotel, for the convenience, but the bottom line is more than price for me. it's safety and comfort, and a peaceful night's sleep. things in short supply here, i'm afraid.

My room was dark and needed remodeling. It also wasn't very clean. The coffee maker was broken. The hair dryer was so old that I was afraid to use it. The plastic shower curtain clung to my body as I showered. The drapes didn't work. I could hear the screeching and revving of the cars in the parking lot. The ac/heater was ancient and on the noisy side. Room service is sketchy - I had to call three times and let it ring forever before a weary man took my dinner order. Then it was 45 minutes before I received it - cold. The front desk staff was clueless and rude.

Location, service and complimentary full breakfast were great. The air condition could use some attention. Clean, comfortable, good price for amenities offered.

The staff was very helpful. The outside door did not lock properly. It was easy access, the staff was very helpful, and the food was good.

Location was good. Very thin walls and a lot of noise. 2 items were stolen from my room. The first room I was given had no bed!
