We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Hampton Inn Albany/Western Ave., the room was super clean, the staff was very helpful and the indoor pool area was beautiful! The hotel was also in a great location with many local businesses available and trips to MVP arena and the New York State Museum were easy and less than 15 minutes away. We'll definitely be returning to this location in the future.
