We took a one-night break on the way to New York. The hotel is near Highway 87 and Albany Airport, but it is quite far away and not noisy. There are some fast food restaurants and a restaurant bar nearby. The hotel is of domestic business four-star standard, such as Holiday Inn Express and Hampton by Hilton. The room is clean and the double beds are two 1.5-meter beds, which are quite convenient for bringing children. It is a good choice for a one-night stopover!
When searching for Albany's travel strategy, I found that the downtown of the city is not very safe, so I searched the surrounding campus area and found that the University at Albany campus area is 10 minutes away from the city by car. The hotel is located near the campus area
I feel that the cost-effectiveness of the hotels here is much higher than that in the urban area. Most of the hotels in the urban area do not have independent parking lots and require street pas, while hotels near the campus area can park for free. The room is also very big. The hotel does not include breakfast. If you want to upgrade the breakfast, you need to pay 11 dollars per person. It is recommended to go to the city to eat Brunch. The hotel room is big and the facilities are also very complete
The sheets in the room were single smelled, the use was very old and the texture was not good. The air conditioner simply couldn't sleep. It was like a motorcycle. It was given to the machine platform outside the third floor. The air conditioner of others was also very noisy. Because I was too tired, I didn't want to toss after I checked in, so I stayed, and turned off the air conditioner at night, otherwise I couldn't sleep.
While the facility is good and the room is clean, the front desk service was disappointing. Derek was rude and did not demonstrate basic hospitality—there was no “thank you,” no courtesy, or any polite communication. His attitude was especially noticeable at checkout.
At check-in, I requested a room facing the parking lot if possible. I understand that requests cannot always be accommodated, and that is fine. However, there was no explanation when the room key was given, which led to confusion and disappointment.
Overall, the checkout experience was even worse than check-in.
The room is quite big, you can get a shuttle to the airport, you can order takeout, it's very close to the airport, there's a small square nearby where you can meet up for dinner, generally it's OK, didn't try breakfast
