Good value for the money. Stayed here on our bicycle ride along the Empire State Trail, the hotel is a very short and flat ride from the trail. The grocery store is a short bicycle ride from the hotel, and the store has a bicycle stand.

A decent option in the Hudson River Valley

Property is dated but the staff is friendly and were accommodating. Seemed like maybe there were some long-term guest/residents in the facility, and it felt like perhaps they were a little shady. Otherwise, decent location.

Place was super dirty and very dated. Room hadn’t been swept in weeks with a lot of dirt and debris on the floor. Bathroom was not clean, had previous renters hair on sink. We understand the rent was cheep but should be able to sweep and clean between guests. Would not recommend. But on the bright side the Heat/AC, TV & Sinks worked.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Price was great. You get what you pay for. It appears that this location is used for long term housing for folks. Non-smoking room smelled of smoke. Had to get a different room. Room was clean as was bath room. TV control was horrible. Not sure who to blame on that. Couldn’t access channels listed in lineup. Noisy neighbors. AC sounded like a dump trunk when it kicked on. Bed was situated on a tin can base. Made “hollow” can sounds when I rolled over. Very very few amenities (although none were really listed). Only one chair in room. Might be suitable for a single person, but the wife wasn’t too happy.

There was no working phone number for this hotel. Red flag #1. Luckily, despite not being able to call and arrange a late check-in, management kindly and quickly accommodated us after we had driven for twelve hours. At this price point, there were so many options that I'm sure would've been a million times better near Albany. Pictures did not capture the complete neglect of the property. And nothing could have prepared us for such filthy conditions. Walls covered in mysterious smears, splashes, stains in every inch of the space. Blankets with cigarette burns. Unswept, unmopped (a previous guest's disposable contacts were still on the floor of the bathroom). Smelly. Shower temp was inconsistent. AC worked--but looked like it had been through a war. Housekeeping does come in your room to make the beds and replace towels. They have an unusual practice of taking the trash out of everyone's rooms and just setting it in front of their doors. That's the scene we came home to after being at a music festival all day: Trash bags in front of each hotel room like some weird evil Bizarro Santa had stopped by while we were gone. The bags were still there when we left the next morning. It seemed most guests were long-term, down on their luck residents. We come from rural WV so are no strangers to living amongst a marginalized & underserved population so with all this and when the mobile food pantry came to deliver we weren't shook as somebody maybe coming from the suburbs would be.

The bed was a bit firm, but comfy, clean linens/towels- which was good. Shower was clean. But rooms need updating and deep cleaning- the lamp was covered in dust, and the windowsill in the bathroom was super dirty. Soap rack is completely rusty. It was okay for a night to stay- bed was clean - which is important, but they definitely need to clean way better!

We booked for a week for business. They started after the first night claiming they needed to do an "inspection", on day 3 they asked if we were leaving soon? We paid for a week! Don't bother putting out the "do not disturb" sign cause they either knock or use their key card to enter anyway.
