It was easy to find, nice hotel. The room was perfect for a one-night stay. We expected more towels in our room (we were three and everything was for two), but it wasn't dramatic. Everything was nice and clean.

We booked here because of the price. The location was OK. It was sometimes difficult getting towels. There was an in house "restaurant" which was very simple. We never tried it. The parking area had quite a few large holes to maneuver around. Apparently, they once had a pool, but no longer. If you are looking for a fairly reasonable place basically just for sleeping in the Albany area, the Plaza will do fine.
