This used to be the premier accommodation site in Albany, and retains its 1960's charm. The staff are friendly and the rooms adequate. The only downside is the continental breakfast, which could be a bit more diverse.

Staff were courteous and friendly. The property was neat and festive for the Holiday season. The first room wasn't clean. Unfortunately, the bathroom was much to be desired. So we changed rooms. However, the 2nd room was clean and tidy. The overall environment was quite and it's close enough to convenient stores and restaurants.

Whatever guy they had pick me up to bring me to the motel, I caught him peeking in my window while I was about to get undressed to take a shower. When I ran to the door to confront him he was leaving and saying I’m sorry. But he was smiling like that was ok.

Large “old style” motel but well maintained. Reception area nicely updated with friendly and helpful staff. The hidden gem is the pub - small cozy atmosphere, good drinks & surprising delicious food. Wish our stay could of been longer to enjoy the pool and other amenities.

Emory

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Door to room was damaged. Breakfast consisted of cereal and milk. Cream packets for coffee were old and dried into a flat solid square in its packet. All coffee was awful. Mattress was broken down on one side. Electrical outlets are few and hard to find. Furniture and bathroom facilities are worn and need to be upgraded. Running the AC unit was necessary to mask the sound of a band that played for hours near the front of the property.
