I was slightly confused with working the tv and wifi, the man at the front desk was very pleasantly helpful.
The hotel has been very nicely redone since we were here last here.

I was so happy with this hotel! It was very clean and comfortable. It’s such a convenient location if you have a student in SUNY ALBANY which is directly across the street. The best part was that I was able to bring my dog! I enjoyed my stay and will be back often!

Very clean, nice staff. Construction going on at this time but did not interfere with stay, except having to enter from the back of the building.

I was very disappointed that we did not get room cleaning at all over our 3 day stay. We had to go get coffee pods, towels and anything else we needed in the room. I'd of thought that at least we should have had fresh towels, trash pick and beds made for the cost of the rooms per night.

Everything was clean, staff was friendly. Very nice inside.
Outside, parking was a major issue. The only area not parked full had screws from the remodel all over the pavement. I picked up many. The parking garage had half the slots filled with remodel junk.
A better organized remodel could alleviate some of this issue.
Doubt I would stay here again.

I specifically stay at this hotel because it had a restaurant and bar. Both of which were demolished and under construction. We had to enter through the back of the building, which was littered with garbage and the temporary check-in area was a disaster area, very unhappy!
