    Breakfast is basic buffet style sub par quality. Dry overcooked rubbery cheese omelet with dry potatoes, cold hard boiled eggs, fruit and oatmeal as well as a waffle station. The missing hairdryer was replaced, but only after receiving a front desk call telling me to check the bathroom drawer and a staff member entering my bathroom to check the drawer without requesting permission to do so. I think that conduct is unprofessional and a guest should have an item replaced quickly without being questioned about it. Just a little more staff training needed perhaps. Overall, this is a good option if you’re just here on a quick work trip and you’re not expecting an amazing breakfast experience. The bedding was clean, comfortable and met my needs.

    I love that the breakfast had turkey bacon and chicken sausage as meat options because I don't eat pork. I also like that ther was a pork meat option for the people who do eat pork. The staff in the breakfast area was professional and kept the area well stocked. The only thing you could have done better is have a location closer to downtown Albany's Capitol building.

    The hotel is very clean and tidy, and my son and I really enjoyed our stay. The pool is great for small children, and the beds and pillows are very comfortable. The noise insulation is also very good. It was great to have a microwave in the room to heat food and drinks. The breakfast offered a good variety of tasty food, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. We had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend! We loved everything about our stay. Just one recommendation: it would be nice if the hotel provided robes, as that would make visiting the pool more convenient, as well as toothbrushes and toothpaste, since I forgot mine in the rush.

    Breakfast was great. Everything was clean. Every staff interaction was positive. Room decor is a little tired. No fan in the bathroom. I specifically asked for housekeeping to come on our 3rd day to take out trash and refresh towels. I was assured they come daily (they hadn’t yet up to this point). When we returned at the end of the day, housekeeping has not come. Front desk person had someone come up promptly to take trash and give us new towels.

    The other was the front desk clerk on the first morning of our stay (Friday morning. December 26th at 6:30 a.m.). She was so helpful and accommodating. She didn't act put out when we asked for help and was quick to assist us with sincere friendliness. We did not catch her name. but had hoped to thank her and leave her a tip; however, she was not on duty on Saturday morning. Both of these individuals deserve a raise! They are an asset to your hotel ~ Please give them a special commendation for their excellent service on our behalf.

Eggs, potatoes, meats, waffles, bagels, toast, coffee, fruit, variety of juices and muffins. The staff hovered and continued to bring out full trays of food. Continental breakfast is a waste of time but a good robust breakfast like this is definitely worth the stay. The staff also texted daily to make sure I was enjoying my stay. Well done.

    The Hampton Inn on Western avenue is the hotel where I always stay when I am in Albany, NY area. It’s super convenient to SUNY and everything else that’s going on in the City. The staff is always welcoming, friendly and helpful. The rooms are spotlessly clean and very comfortable. In the morning there is a breakfast buffet that is always well stocked and delicious. What’s not to love? I have to give one more shout out to the staff, because they ALWAYS go the extra mile to make sure my stay is as pleasant as it can possibly be.

    We always try to stay at Hampton Inns when we travel because we know we will have a great room at a reasonable price.

    My mini fridge was turned off, so my food spoiled. The hotel's policy about payment at check-in is different than what was listed on Expedia. Would never stay here again.

    The Hampton Inn on Western Avenue is where we always stay when we travel to Albany, NY. The location is super convenient. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The rooms are always spotlessly clean, and the beds are insanely comfortable. There is always a tray of cookies in the lobby, and a hearty breakfast in the morning. What’s not to love.

    I was leery about the neighborhood but it was a nice quiet area. Convenient location. Several dining options within a 5 minute drive. We needed to check in early and it was no problem whatsoever. Room was updated and clean. Staff was very friendly. My wife forgot an expensive pair of sunglasses and the hotel found them and held on to them until she picked them up a few days later which to me speaks to integrity. I would stay here again.

    Second room had a few working out let’s but the air conditioning was still uncontrollable. When mentioned to staff, they said it was due to the heat wave. My account was gone into and charged during my stay for amounts that made no sense. It needs to made clear to customers that after your stay reaches a certain amount, your account is charged mid-stay. I was also told that upon leaving, my account would be charged. It was reimbursed, but when checking my account, which I do almost daily, it looked like I was being hacked by Hilton. It took four days and a call to corporate customer service to be able to speak with the manager. Once he got the call from corporate, he was then “available”to call me. We worked out a reimbursement only after I refused the offer of Hilton honors points. Not a good performance by anyone!

    Everything was pretty good. We requested adjoining rooms. When we arrived they said they could give them to us but we would have to wait 2 hours. After waiting we went to rooms only to find out they were next to each other but not adjoining. Not the worst thing but a bit annoying. Not sure what's wrong but we did have trouble with the key working as well. But all in all not a bad place.

    Room was fine - carpets are sort of gross. Rooms should have a full length mirror. I mistakenly forgot to cancel our first night and sent an email in the morning to informa location that we were still coming for second night- Paid in advance no refund I knew. But I was surprised to hear back that our room had been cancelled as a no show? fortunately there was a room but I was quite unsettled to hear that maybe it would not have been?

    The room was clean and comfortable enough, but the refrigerator was too noisy to use it and the heat/AC was inconsistent. Breakfast was pure chaos. There is not enough staff to manage keeping everything cleaned and stocked. The front desk person was just rude and condescending when I had questions about the charges on my account. Most of the parking lot was coned off and not accessible. The property itself is decent, but the stay was uncomfortable due to staff interactions (or lack thereof.

    Generically comfortable! I was disappointed that the heating unit in the room was extremely loud. Also I was given a room on the ground floor and the curtains did not close completely and I had to use a paperclip to keep outside lights, including headlights, from bothering me. Also returned one night to find the room had not been serviced - not a problem, except there was a little card saying it was because of "requested privacy" which I had not requested.
