Nice off the highway access with close by restaurants (check out the Golden Grain!). Food was good but limited. Rooms needs some repair by the shower head but otherwise was great.
I’ll start by saying that this hotel did exceed my expectation. I booked it a bit last minute, as I was called to a local office in Troy with little notice. The service was consistently friendly and efficient for all 4 nights I stayed. The rooms are aging and show signs of the age, but my room was very spacious and had every thing (and more than) I needed. The location is conveniently close to several highways, but the main access road is in severe disrepair, and isn’t the easiest to access in rush hour.
We stayed as a family of four. Our room was very clean, quiet, with comfortable beds and a great of shower. I’d stay again and would send friends. Front desk staff nice. Breakfast much better than the usual for this level of hotel.
I stayed at this hotel on 1/31/26 after a 2 hour drive in for the Rascal Flatts concert. The hotel was right off the highway and so close to basically anything you could need. There is a Cracker Barrel and a Denny’s practically in the same parking lot as the hotel. We were very excited to get back after the concert and go over to Denny’s before bed. The parking lot was close to the door so you don’t have to walk a mile. Every staff member we encountered was very friendly. The room overall was great. Super clean, very comfortable beds. Big enough for 3 women to get ready for a night out. We Ubered to/from the MVP Arena and we had no issues with that at all. It was about a 10 minute car ride to the venue. Unfortunately we missed breakfast so I can’t review that. If we return to the area for any reason, we would 100% stay here again!!
We had a long day and wanted to get some rest before the ride home. Was quiet and clean. The breakfast was great.
Spacious room; excellent breakfast choices in bright, welcoming room; refrigerator, microwave and coffee in room; quiet AC; quick from the airport.
I had to have a last minute overnight stay for a work trip. The room was nice and the whole staff was great! A special thanks to Ricky who was the front desk clerk when I got in late that night and he was great and made the whole process very smooth.
Our stay was fantastic! The staff was friendly, helpful, they were fantastic! Shay at the front desk was the greatest! Also great was Umel, Bedsti, and the maintenance man who fixed my TV, after I dropped something behind it knocking the cable wire out (my screw up) The best hotel stay I've had in a long time!!
Set 5 miles from downtown Albany, this straightforward hotel off I-90 is also 6 miles from both Palace Theatre and the New York State Capitol.
