Hampton Inn Schenectady Downtown
"Decent hotel in the middle of town - our room was fine. A problem with no hot water when we arrived - but that was rectified. The decor looks a bit tired but overall an ok visit."

"The hotel was great. Large, nicely decorated rooms. Only issue we had was a pair of men’s dirty underwear left in a corner of our room. That was gross, We did tell the front desk about it and they were apologetic. Otherwise everything was great!"
