Hampton Inn & Suites Albany/East Greenbush

One of the best breakfast selections with to-go bags for those running late in the morning. Excellent Hotel experience

Good hotel, close to downtown, yet not in downtown. Great access to the freeway. Close to a Wal Mart, Target, Starbucks, Cracker Barrel and the usual. Good parking. Well kept, IMHO more modern and in better shape that the Fairfield Inn across the street.

Great location, quiet

Housekeeping service is not provided every day.

Hotel seemed recently renewed. Room was big and we had plenty of room. I would have given 5 stars except Breakfast was set up late (45 mins later) and we were charged for water after being told desk staff would not refill the water container in the lobby.

Upon arrival we found you could only enter the property from one direction...this would have been a bit confusing had it been after dark. Check in went smoothly even though we had to wait for the desk clerk to come inside. Our room was what we expected from a Hampton Inn. It was clean but we were not a fan of the sliding barn door shared by the bathroom and the closet. Also the light for the bathroom was a sensor so when getting up during the night you are accosted by a bright light. Totally unnecessary as there was low lighting on already. There was no bar soap at the sink. The only soap available was the liquid soap in the container in shower which was attached to the wall. Not convenient when washing hands. Breakfast in the morning was adequate but had to ask for yogurt as the bowl for the containers was empty except for ice. At checkout I normally get a receipt but after seeing someone stand for over 5 minutes waiting for a desk clerk, I opted to just deposit the keycard in the receptacle provided and leave. Note : there was a sign that the hotel was operated independently

Room not ready when we checked in

This was the nicest of the 3 Hampton Hotels in New York that we stayed in. Had cookies and water. Was surprised that there was a $150 deposit when we checked in.

Location was convenient to RPI, plenty of parking, good coffee.
