Everything! The girl at the front desk was awful. We had paid online for the room. We arrived 2 hours early and she didn't even try to get us a room that was ready! I explained we were tired from traveling and still she got even more stern. My husband and I are 73 and 75 yes. Old with many health issues. I asked if we could hang out in the lobby. Begrudgingly she said yes. We sat patiently for over an hour when that girl left her post and a much kinder girl came over to us and asked if we had been waiting. She immediately got us a beautiful room! She was very quiet but very kind.

It was spotless, decorated beautifully for graduation, and the staff was excellent. The only thing is that I booked these rooms 8 months in advance and wanted us all to be in same area. We had 4 rooms and all on different floors which made it hard with the elderly folks with us.

The staff was very pleasant and kind. The room was spacious and the kitchen had everything we needed for a short stay. The breakfast options were plentiful and tasty. Our favorite things about the hotel, however, were the pool and outdoor terrace with the firepit, which made relaxing at the hotel a lot more fun. Though the bed was comfortable, the pillows did not offer much support. The biggest issue we had with the room, however, was the shower, which did not drain sufficiently. After about 3 minutes, the water would start to back up and pool around your feet. It also would have been nicer if the complimentary shampoo and conditioner were more effective or smelled better.

Location was nice, you can walk the area. Breakfast was good. When we walked into our room, there was a strong smell. We had to leave the windows open for awhile. It smelled like maybe someone smoked in the room and then sprayed heavy cologne to cover it.

We loved the breakfast and the Wednesday night welcome home reception dinner was a great surprise. With three teenage boys the free food was well appreciated! The room was a little smaller than it seemed in the pictures, but it was great for our needs. The pool and hot tub were great. The only real miss was one of the beds had sand between the sheets on our first night for some reason. Kinda gross! Otherwise a good stay.

The room was falling apart more or less. Cobwebs, wallpaper ripped off the wall, drawers barely opened without force, television kept going purple and blue during shows, shower curtain did not fit the tub and sprayed every which way. Hair was left behind in the tub, had to buy lysol and clean myself. Was charged three times for incidentals when it should have only been twice. When asked for number to corporate the front desk said she couldn't get it, which I took a screenshot of as well. Most staff was rude, other than the cleaners who were really sweet. Train your front desk better and to not be so off putting. There's no smiles, appearance looks sloppy and more. I typically tell people to come here for a hotel and no longer will but will say otherwise. Very upset because this place USED to be good. What happened?

Amazing breakfast! Big spacious rooms with well equipped kitchen and comfy bed. Loved having a pool AND a hot tub. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I even saw a server at breakfast chase someone down as they were checking out and give them a big hug. It was so heartwarming to witness. We stay in hotels all the time due to our kids sports. Highly impressed all the way around with Homewood Suites in Albany!!

This is my second time using this property as it has amenities that serve my family well. We were able to barbecue and host 15+ people in the court yard. Once we got to the beautiful room EVERYONE complained about the condition of the bathroom, so much so that we were unable to stay the night due to the mold.

I tried to realize this is Albany and what we got is what is expected in that town I just wished the hotel manager could see, from an outside prospective, how bush league their hotel is. If you are reading this review take a look at the management comment, if they do respond. If it is the same corporate response as is on all the other negative reviews, then you know I’m right and that the customer is not their number one priority.

The receptionist was incredibly rude. My keycard kept shutting off, and they wouldn't give me a new one without an ID (it was in my locked room. After an escort to my room, i was asked to bring my ID back down to the front desk. And she didn't even check it! The TV didn't work in the room nor did the toilet. The room was drafty and cold. There was a loud party all night in the room next to mine. Finally, the sidewalks were covered in thick ice. I would never stay there again.

Arrived during snowstorm. The parking lot was maintained constantly to first enable parking and then get out in the morning. My main complaint is that front desk person was ditzy. We were told on checking-in that there would be coffee 24/7 and when my wife needed some early in the morning, the clerk didn’t want to do it. She also said she could not print out a receipt when we left, saying that the computer was down. Another complaint is that the hotel doesn’t allow fly & drive parking, even for a daily fee. Most of the other airport hotels offer this option.
