Hometown visit

The Other House is a cute and quirky place where we instantly felt at home. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked as if all our needs were anticipated. We would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the Capital Region. The backyard hill is a little steeper than the photos make it out to be, so throwing the ball with the pup was not possible.

An interesting place

We arrived and didnt know what to expect. Everyone proceeded to choose the room that seemed to just fit. We enjoyed the opportunity to sit fireside and plan our days and even had a cook out. Nobody had any complaint about the house. If it were my property i would suggest a no shoes policy. I cant think of any other place i would prefer to stay . It was safe, the neighbors were very nice and our host was the best. Thank you for everything.

Another great stay!

This is the second time we are renting this property… Myself and my young adult daughters, and our two dogs. We were in the area to watch my daughter play volleyball at the College of Saint Rose… This is a perfect location.! The house has plenty of space and is tastefully decorated with lots of attention to detail, including seasonal decor and fall decorations. We enjoyed a few dinners in the Downtown Troy Riverfront area and also visited the New York State Museum in downtown Albany, which I highly recommend! Thanks again for the snacks and various toiletries… they are greatly appreciated 😊 I am sure we will be returning to this house again!!!

Visiting daughter at college

My daughters and I had a great stay … house is roomy and homey, with lots of attention to detail!! Very much appreciated the toiletries, snacks and coffee .. extremely thoughtful touches! The location to Troy and Albany is ideal. While we spent most of this trip moving my daughter into her dorm, we are excited to come back and visit downtown Troy and further explore the capital region. We have already booked a return trip! The only negative issue is the condition of the house next door … not sure of the circumstances, but it is a bit of an eyesore… the street is narrow and neighbors are close, but there was never any negative issue, aside from aesthetics. The yard area is lovely and I hope to have more relaxation time on our next visit …and bring the pets 😃
