Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was spacious and lovely, but there was a broken chair that needed replacing. The service was very professional and helpful, especially when arranging alternative dining due to a booked restaurant. The location was convenient for exploring Albany and its attractions. The dining experience was good, with fast service and a great view of the Capitol building.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious, bright, and well-designed, but there was a broken chair that needed attention. The service was a bit of a hit or miss—a mix of extremely accommodating and professional behavior along with some abrupt responses. The location was special, right by the Capitol and within walking distance of various attractions and dining options. The dining experience was quick and enjoyable, though communication about serving could be clearer.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious with good lighting and modern amenities, beautifully decorated, and well laid out. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to assist us. The location was convenient for both exploring the city and attending events. The dining experience was delightful, with excellent food and a great view of the Capitol building.
