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.

The hotel was fine. It was the harrowing experience of checking in that was traumatizing. Initially my key to room 308 didn't work. After returning to the front desk to reactivate it, I entered the room to discover an occupant guest laying on his bed. He wasn't very happy, nor am I. I was told the manager would be compensating me, but after 2 emails have not heard back. This is unacceptable. Can expedia refund my money? Thank you.

One of my worst hotel stays ever, and I've stayed in hundreds! I checked in last night around 9 pm, after circling for what seemed like an hour trying to find parking. Everything was OK except the non-functioning wi-fi, so I went to bed, and suddenly at 2:30 am some stranger burst into my room and turned on the lights because the overnight clerk had given him the same room. He left without turning off the lights, so I had to get up and turn it off, and of course never got back to sleep. This morning the breakfast staff arrived very very late, so there was pretty much nothing to eat and the coffee was lukewarm & weak. Finally, I went back to my room to find that my key had been de-activated. This place is a pathetic excuse for a hotel. I really should have my night comped, and obviously I will never stay here again.

The staff was very knowledgeable and inviting. This was the best part of our weekend getaway. Also, the parking was an issue. There was a lack of places to eat and things to do in Albany. Overall, the hotel is good.

Perfect little getaway
The room was very nice! Bathroom was spotless, bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning got COLD, which was wonderful on a very hot and humid night. It was quiet and so relaxing. We were checked in by the front desk manager, who was just lovely. I would definitely stay again.
