We were replaced in the ultra handicap room that was tucked away around the corner. It was not necessary.. The hotel was empty and I’m sure there were other rooms that weren’t available and also the chicken took forever with Marc in the evening.

Stayed here for a visit to University of Albany. Location cannot be beat - directly across from the school. Adjacent to a Dunkin' which is a huge bonus for me. Only downside is our room was right along Rt 90 - so lots of auto noise.
