Patrice, York

This is a somewhat tired property. While the bed was very comfortable with very nice linens, the bathroom was disappointing with visible black mold in the shower. After running the shower for a long while the water only got lukewarm. The staff was attentive at check-in. And parking was easy. Breakfast was weak. I decided to pass. I wouldn’t choose this hotel again.

There was a very unpleasant smell. It looked dirty and there was a light that penetrated into the room, so I couldn't sleep because the curtain was very transparent. I didn't feel safe.

We got a email from Expedia stating that our room had upgraded from a single king bed to 2 queen beds. We decided to bring our young son with us since we had 2 beds, and he was excited. When we got to the hotel and got to our room, it was only 1 queen bed!! When I went to talk to the front desk, they stated they do not have any king beds and that Expedia did the upgrade to 2 queens which they had no more of. My husband ended up having to sleep on the hard cold floor with a blanket under him. Needless to say he didn’t sleep. I showed the hotel the email from Expedia and they didn’t care. When I went back to look at the “upgrade” email it was gone. Very disappointing after booking trips through Expedia for YEARS. Hopefully someone can help make this right!! -Exhausted and cramped family of 3

Exactly what you think
This is a no-frills option for easy access to Albany. Cleanliness left a little to be desired (some questionable stains on the walls; I saw one cockroach), but overall the worst of the reviews seem to paint it worse than reality. Bed was comfortable and clean, towels were clean, television channel selection was robust, and it was quiet as far as outside and inside noise. If I was looking for a budget option in the area, I'd stay here again. No complaints.

It'll do -- but not my fave.
Bed was super comfy. Overall, the property could use updating. Breakfast bar was pretty well non existent with no restock insight by 9:30. Cumberland Farms next door was clutch.

Disappointed that my room changed from my original reservation (King Bed) to queen bed which was actually a double bed.
