Needs substantial work

As someone in the operations and hospitality industry, I can confidently say this hotel suffers from deep operational failures that no amount of cosmetic renovation can hide. From the start, basic expectations for comfort and cleanliness were not met. The hotel consistently smelled of mildew, smoke, and general neglect—excluding the lobby. Clean air is a basic guest expectation and was totally absent. Despite NY laws, smoking of any kind is forbidden indoors, and staff did nothing to enforce this. Housekeeping left trash and food outside rooms for hours, creating sanitation issues and attracting pests. Quiet hours were completely ignored—large groups were shouting, slamming doors, and room-hopping late into the night with no intervention, despite calls to the front desk. Staff appeared either too inexperienced or unwilling to address these disturbances. The laundry area had damp, smelly clothing left untouched for our entire 4-day stay. It’s clear money went into surface-level updates—some trendy furniture and lighting—but the operation runs like a low-budget motel. We even cleaned our room and stripped the bedding to help housekeeping, but respect should go both ways. I hope management takes this seriously, because if this is the direction of their rebrand, I don’t see it lasting.

Every staff interaction was excellent... check-in (let me check in at 2:25 as that fit my busy weekend), 4am check-out (had just made a fresh pot of excellent coffee that I enjoyed while waiting for my ride to the airport) and the high energy, positive, cheery woman running around doing all sorts of work at the breakfast service.

The room needs; hooks to hang items, overhead lighting, and another countertop. The pool was not as warm as we had hoped so swimming was not enjoyable for the adults and the shower in the pool area did not get warm. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The free breakfast is one of the best I’ve seen. Staff go above and beyond the average level of friendliness and helpfulness. The room was perfect. The bathroom was very clean. Only thing lacking was a good fan. Wonderful water pressure and temp in the shower. I felt safe and taken care of here. Especially as a woman traveling alone.

Stayed the night for early flight out of Albany. Room was spacious! Parking not all that convenient. We had a great room at the end on the 4th floor. Could use a table in the “tv” sofa section. I would stay again. Super close to airport.
