Disliked: Staff & service
The bed was comfortable, the room was huge! It’s dated but a fine hotel. If you’re expecting luxury, you’ll be disappointed, but it was a perfectly nice stay. Quiet, clean enough, and convenient with real cooked breakfast in the morning, bus routes close by and a health food store across the street. Would recommend for a budget-friendly option in Albany!

Excellent for one-two nights busy days

This hotel is excellent for the price (hotels.com price) I agree with prior reviews that if you have to stay for a night or two, have to work most of the day and eat out, and just need a clean simple place to stay, this is the best bang for buck. Front desk people very polite and helpful, room clean, breakfast average. All high ratings based upon what they charge. For that price, the hotel deserves 5 stars.

Perfect stay at Albany

My first time visiting Albany, it was for business, and all I need is clean quiet place to sleep. Yes, the hotel was not the little old building, which I could pick some aged detail, I could nick pick here and there such as cracked paint spots here and there. But overall, very clean and quiet. very nice hotel, I do not need anything luxury to sleep peacefully. Bathroom was very clean and nice, so does all towel and sheets. I was surprised they also have nice free breakfast. For the price, this is the best hotel in Albany.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The water pressure in the shower was nonexistent. The building could definitely use some updates. Free parking and it was conveniently located right off the highway. The free breakfast was a hot breakfast with scrambled eggs, home fries and sausage. Some cereal, a few muffins and toast. My only real complaint was that it did smell of cigarette smoke and weed.

The bed was comfortable and clean. Aside from that, my room had obviously not been dusted in a long time and the furniture, bathtub and toilet were very old and it showed. The place is really rundown and an embarrassment to the Ramada Inn/Wyndham brand. The staff were all pleasant.

Great location, being close to I-90 and I-87. Close to dining and retail, which is super important to me. My room was not clean. 8”+ long hairs all over the place. I don’t blame management, because they have to have some trust that housekeeping will do their job. The bed was comfortable. Carpeting everywhere is not clean- hallways, floor rugs & mats, elevator. They definitely need to vacuum a lot more. Presentation is everything.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pictures on the website do not match the property and amenities are very limited. Needs to be inspected and renovated promptly outside and in. Broken receptacle coming off the wall behind the bed being a fire hazard. Shower tub is fragile, water leak all the time in the tub. No paper towel available in the room. Complementary breakfast was served by one staff member only if available. Carpet had bad smell as well. Pros: Good AC, comfortable bed, hot water in shower, close to downtown restaurants and activities.

It’s a motel that uses the Ramada Inn brand but let’s not get too excited on value for money since this really is a low cost alternative. Front desk and breakfast staff were very helpful and accommodating for us coming with bicycles

Roof over your head with a clean bed.

Clean & comfy bed to rest as my husband and I were in town to see a show! The bathtub had a steady leak which was a bit of an annoyance, and we left before breakfast was ready so I can’t speak to that. For the price we paid for a queen bed room, and our short stay, it was very comfortable, affordable and convenient to travel to the MVP arena.

Hotel bath room need renovation

The front desk lady is friendly and helpful. The room is clean, but the property is old with leaking tap in the shower with limited water flow, the shower tub should be replaced as when I step in the bath tub, I feel the bottom of it is floating on the water, i.e. it moves. The blanket on the bed is too thin and we have to raise the room temperature to 77F to be able to sleep. The door lock is hard to open with the assigned card and I have to ask the front desk lady to help us to open the door several times. The breakfast is fine with on onsite service person to distribute the food to avoid waste.

Liked:The bed was comfortable. Disliked: when we entered the room they had the heat on set at 85°F, it was like 85 outside. The bathtub tap had a steady drip. The set up for breakfast was annoying. Every place that had a complimentary breakfast was self serve. This was weird. It was part self serve and part was served.

Staff was wonderful. Area was not the same as in description. Place looked run down. The main door stayed open and unlocked 24/7 (sign in door says must have room key to enter). Room was out dated and dirty. We cleaned out bathroom before use. Shower curtain was ripped in serval places. Safety was a concern when we saw someone shoved paper towel in the peephole.
