My daughter was moving to the Albany area and this hotel was amazing because we were able to park a 26 foot U-Haul easily in their parking lot and felt completely safe leaving everything there. The hotel was close to everything and we were able to find great food and have a good night after a long move.

Room for Improvement

My stay was ok. Room was convenient and comfortable. Excellent breakfast spread. The thermostat in the room didn’t help maintain a comfortable temperature, I alternated between heat snd cool to try to find a sweet spot. TV turned on automatically to “welcome” me after I had already gone to bed. Pool water looked cloudy so I avoided it, but had been planning to use it.

Comfortable with a few flaws

Generically comfortable! I was disappointed that the heating unit in the room was extremely loud. Also I was given a room on the ground floor and the curtains did not close completely and I had to use a paperclip to keep outside lights, including headlights, from bothering me. Also returned one night to find the room had not been serviced - not a problem, except there was a little card saying it was because of "requested privacy" which I had not requested.
