Motel 6 Albany, NY

Il y avait encore des poils et cheveux dans la salle bain lorsqu’on est arrivé dans la chambre. Les planchers n’avaient clairement pas été nettoyé.

Convenient location, easy and fast check in, clean sheets and towels, air conditioning works, and large parking lot.

The place looks like a homeless shelter place smells like animals the rooms are terribly dirty bathtubs are not clean hair on the walls ring around the tub she's didn't smell fresh extra blankets only two was able just terrible

Strong smell of smoke everywhere even though rooms were non-smoking. Surfaces and floor were sticky. Cigarette burnt bed sheets. Dirty linens with stain and hair. Saw a few roaches. Fortunately we only needed to stay one night and we had to leave very early the next morning. Saw a lot of homeless people in the vicinity.

Nothing! I didn’t even stay in the hotel! That’s how bad it was

The air conditioning was effective and the shopping area was close by and on the bus route near me

Friendly staff. Basic room, could use some TLC, but if all you need is a place to crash at night, this is perfect. Organic grocery store next door.

Nothing Crackheads. Used needles on the ground. Dirty. Seedy

This hotel was one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Everything was dirty. And either smelled like weed or cigarette smoke. If I had to rate on scale of. 0-10 it would be a 0.

No clean linens. Burn holes in the bedding. Smells like smoke all over. I believe I seen some prostitution live

Did not need air conditioner only some heat.

Nothing It's was dirty, towel and linen was stained, wifi didn't work, room service was terrible, there were cockroaches

Nothing Duty, cigarettes buds inside the room, bloody on the sheets, duty floor

Duty, cigarettes buds inside the room, bloody on the sheets, duty floor

Nothing. That was the most disgusting accommodations I’ve ever been in and the most unsafe I have ever felt.

All

Nothing was really up to standard. The service, the staff, most thing we're broken.

The room was gross, the bed spread had stains and burn holes all over it. This was supposed to be a smoke fee room am it smells

The place was disgustingly dirty and worn down. English was not the native tongue of the person at the front desk. There were no towels in the room and it smelled like smoke. I went back to the front desk to complain about the smoke and he said you will lose your deposit if you smoke in the room. Even if they collected the deposit for the previous person that smoked in the room, they made no attempt to remove the smoke stench. The drawer on the dresser was broken. The light next to the bed didn’t have a lightbulb and the sheets were stained I slept on top of the bed in my sweatpants that i wear to the gym because I would not crawl under the covers. They had a coin operated washer and dryers and it seemed like a homeless shelter. I can’t believe Hotels.com even had it as an option on their site for this place. It was absolutely disgusting. Even though I have used Hotels.com for 80-90% of my reservations, i will not use them again. Let me upload my pics and a video and you will see this is an accurate description.

Clean room

First two rooms had never been cleaned, third had linens changed but floor was never vacuumed, requested towels at least 3 separate times to no avail, front desk was at least somewhat helpful initially.

The room was disgusting. There was a molded lime on the floor and dirty cups. The bathroom wasn't clean.

Lobby filled with cigarette smoke, room with bugs and chips under mattress. Towels bare, pillows thin and rumpled, bathroom sink without drain plug and rusted. Motel 6 is used for rentals and housing assistance. Lots of noise in the hallways.

Ugly dirty room

I took a bath and paint was peeling off and floating around in the tub. They supplied one bath towel so I had to go to the front desk to get more and all they gave me was a bath towel that felt like sandpaper, and a bath mat. No hand towels no wash cloth. The hotel has a significant amount of guests who live there and we were put across the hall from a mentally ill person who was in the hallway screaming for several hours with what sounded like a toddler screaming back.

The room was extremely dirty, food left in the refrigerator from previous guests, hair and dirt in the bathroom and on the floors, towels and microwave were filthy, sheets and furniture had burn holes, ac was missing the front venting so you could see right inside of it. We ended sleeping in the car in the parking lot.

The bathroom door was broken near the floor. The security chain was broken and didn’t work. There was blood on the walls. No breakfast just coffee. Lotta strange characters hanging out.

Cool

Room was filthy and littered with trash. Broken fixture. We did not stay here

Staff was responsive and friendly. But room was dirty—there was garbage under the bed, food (I hope it was just food) on the wall, and no towel rack in the bathroom.

A non smoking room. Smelled like its been smoking in it. No towels in bathroom.

Got my first room tv dose not work and there was no covers on the bed and was giving another room pieces of glass in the other

I’m good

Hotel room was not clean enough for the price of the room. The toilet didn’t flush properly which was disappointing and a mouse was able to enter my room through the space underneath the door and that was disappointing as well. The location was very convenient which was a plus.

It’s very dirty surrounding and smoke smell inside the motel.After first visit never think of visiting again 👎

Was offered Meth when I arrived. No one was at the front desk until 20 minutes, thankfully it took that time to see this place was full of druggies living their full time including prostitutes. I left right away. Expedia should remove this crackhouse and compensate this poorly run motel 6. Very scary.

Nice

For the overall price it was what you paid for. For a kings bed at $125 the sheets were clean and the bed was made. There was crumbs on the counter and hair on the table and counter space. I wiped down everything with cleaning products and got no grime. I'd say it's just a little run down and needs a paint job. But you get a safe place to rest, ac, and a room. Overall, with a tight budget I would stay again.

Not the very worst I've stayed at, but wouldn't stay there again. Found a cockroach crawling up the wall within a few minutes, the pillows were super thin, and there was an overall stench in the place.

Not clean, in room, hallways, stairs,no maintenance, lack linens - 1 towel for 2 people

The room was dirty it looked as if it wasn’t cleaned after the guests befor me

The reception were professional, and courteous!

In general, it needs better maintenance and cleanliness.

Room was dirty, cigarette smell in a non smoking room, burn marks all over the room, bathroom door was broken, shower was filthy, and much more.

Don’t stay there.

THE MORNING FRONT DESK PERSON WAS FRIENDLY

The rooms were dirty and smelled. Not one ice machine worked. Lobby dirty. Charged us a fifty dollar deposit that they said Expedia would refund. Please let us know when refunded.

Didn't like anything very disappointed poor flow to sink tub dirty walls stained fire monitor in draw of dresser problem with toilet flushing

This place sucks

One word to describe this hotel, unclean. There was only one towel in the hotel room, asked for more, received a singular towel that had a suspicious red stain. We found a long hair found in the bathroom and the hallway smells like piss. I would rather sleep outside next time. If you hate someone, tell em to sleep here.

Place had stink allover the air sticky floors but prices are unbeatable

We arrived at 11:10 from NC. (Almost 13 hours driving) My nephew and I went in, checked in (second door was locked to get into lobby, just figured because it was late) the next day I realized we only had 1 towels, no washcloths. I asked for them and was only given a single towel. We ended up buying washcloths to bathe. Front desk gentleman refused to give more after housekeeping took out only 2 towels and didn't replace them. Shower looked like it hadn't been cleaned in months. Ended up having to go to a friend's to shower. they wouldn't change my room. Desk attendant fussed at me for asking for more than a single towel for 2 people. Left a day early and came home. Unfortunately they took our money so I couldn't get another room.

It was closed to the dining place and other stores.

Worst hotel ever

The positives: I think the sheets were clean and the air conditioner worked. The lower price was not worth it.

Dirty broken no towels no tv overall condition in disrepair too dirty to take a shower

Bed sheets were filthy do not want to stay again

Absolutely disgusting, wish I read the reviews before going here. Pillows had stains, room was disgusting, shower had hairs all over it, and the entire place smelt like cigarettes. Never again.

The room was not very clean. There were random hairs all over the sheets on the bed and also a few stains on the comforter. The bathroom wasn’t too clean and the toilet was clogged. Also the bed seemed to broken

Stench of cigarette smoke in the hallways and stairwells. Room smelled like cigarette/smoke/fire or a bonfire was set every day with the windows closed.

Good

Good

Very cheap thin pillows Stained bedding Dirty floors and bathtub Water didn't get warm enough to be able to shower. Bed was decent comfort wise. For 50$/ni.. you get what you pay for

Room was dirty and placed smelled like cigarettes

I did have to remind myself that it was a Motel 6 and not the Ritz. I didn’t expect too much coming in. It was a warm 4 walls once the heater kicked in and the bed itself was comfortable.

Room was basic, but clean. Hallways seemed very unkept.

N/A

Everything is great. They are doing a great job in making improvements. Rooms look better than ever

All was wonderful

I think people live here people hanging out outside all night, smoking pot, smoking, cigarettes, people, yelling, and screaming and other rooms up and down the halls. The only thing I could say was the bed was comfortable. We woke up at 3:30 to start getting dressed for our train we had no hot water in our room, the night before my husband went down to get towels because for a double room with four people we only had two towels and one washcloth. They told my husband they had more towels so me and my husband had to share a towel and my friend and her husband had to share a towel , overall experience was horrible. The hallway smelled like cigarette smoke and I know smoking hotel pot smoke just filled the hotel and the entranceway where people were hanging out it made you feel unsafe.

Bed was fairly comfortable. And the front desk lady was friendly and helpful when we checked in.

Nothing was good about this hotel

------ In town for a concert and not picky about my hotel rooms. The room was filthy. Under the mattress was crumbs and food. The ceiling was falling in from water damage. The air conditioner worked but was covered in dirt. The headboard fell off the wall and revealed massive holes. I brought my disgusting pillowcases and asked for new ones and was given two equally disgusting pillowcases but with a massive hair ball attached. I was there for 5 minutes before I found a local Target and bought my own set of sheets and pillows. If I had to guess, 75% of occupancy is long-term tenants with no other options in life. Hard pass.

Please do not stay here. The rooms are cheap because this hotel is an absolute dumpster fire, and needs to be shut down and the building condemned. You know it's a bad place when you start searching for another hotel almost immediately after checking in. I wish I could say it was the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. But that would only be true if we'd actually stayed there.

Lack of towels in bathroom. No blankets on bed.

Dirty and nothing works

La chambre n'étais pas propre, le plancher etait collant partout. Les serviette de la salle de bain etaient tachées. L'air climatisé ne fonctionnais pas bien et les lits étaients desuets

It's very dirty and smell bad

This motel needs work ! There was blue and orange paint on the walls and furniture. The toilet didn’t flush properly. The toilet seat was broken. The toilet paper holder was broken. The towel rack was as missing could see where it once was. There were no towels in the room there was one wash cloth on the sink nothing else. Tried to call the front desk for towels but the phone didn’t work. We were on the second floor and I just had knee surgery so I couldn’t go up and down the stairs to get towels. There was trouble with the key but we finally got in. I have stayed at many motels this was by far the worst!

The whole hotel reeked of cigarettes. Inside the room reeked of cigarettes. The comforters were filthy. There were pubes in the bathroom. The whole hotel room was dirty. All the entrance doors were propped open. The place is ghetto and disgusting.

Checkin was done while the guy was on call with family, very unprofessional.

This motel is not fit to have an animal stay here. It is filthy, old, smelly, insect laden, loud...I can go on. The place houses people that apparently live there permanently. Not safe. DO NOT STAY THERE!

The room was not clean. It was smelly. The bed sheets and towels were very dirty and full of smell. There were mosquitos in the room but no spray to kill mosquitos. The neighbors were extremely noise and they played loud music even at 4: 00 am. The corridors were also dirty and smelly.

First of all, they have NO LUGGAGE CARTS!!! I had to physically carry all my luggage to my upstairs room 3 times! No wash cloths either in the room. Only 1 towel and 1 hand towel. It was ne and my girlfriend staying so i had to go to che k in to get another towel and hand towel. The place reacked with marijuana smoke on mt way to the room when ee got back from dinner and the hallway was VERY hot! Tried to sleep early and kids were running up and down the hallway! Never again will i stay here! Adios Super 8!

It was awful! Let’s start, walking in to a no smoking facility smells like smoke. Get to my room. Set my stuff on the bed, and I notice burn holes in the comforter. Bathroom is old, out dated and stained, no sink drain plug. Then I finally fall asleep and at 6 am the power goes out. I wake because my fan and the AC shut down. I think ok thunderstorm, surely they have a backup. They do. They attempt it 3 times, and the power clicks in for a second then shuts down. Power doesn’t get restored until around 8. So I got a whooping total of 2 hours sleep, in a bed that felt like it was springs with a sheet thrown over top of it. Last thing I’ll mention is the door by the stairs was left open and didn’t help with how slick the stairs and foyer was going to the second floor. I’ve been staying in hotels for trips, concerts and vacations for over 25 years, and this was easily the worst experience I’ve ever had!

It was awful! Let’s start with the incidentals pre authorization. Wasn’t done as one, but instead as a charge. Posted to my account today. Next walking in to a no smoking facility smells like smoke. Get to my room. Set my stuff on the bed, and I notice burn holes in the comforter. Bathroom is old, out dated and stained, no sink drain plug. Then I finally fall asleep and at 6 am the power goes out. I wake because my fan and the AC shut down. I think ok thunderstorm, surely they have a backup. They do.

Bad

Really run down these days.

There was a lot of hair everywhere in the room from previous guests. The towels were old, stained, and not very clean. We paid for a microwave and fridge and did not get it.

Very unclean and used condom discovered under mattress while checking for bed bugs (surprisingly not present). Beware.

Yeah I stayed for about an hour and checked out. Ate the fee for the night. I parked my car right outside the window and still felt I wouldn’t be able to sleep listening for broken glass. 2 security guards posted up at the doors (propped open and ill attended anyway). Simply not the vibe unless youre in a tough situation and

The floor in our room was sticky. I guess you get what you pay for. Price was very low.

First room no AC or working TV

Burned worn linen, Dirty everything. We have no idea when the room was last cleaned.

I booked online because i did not want a 2 1/2 hour drive after the Springsteen show at MVP arena. My fiancee and i checked in at 3pm put the 50.00 incedentals fee on my card got the key and went to the room. The bathroom was not cleaned the floor looked like it wasnt swept.that was rm 249 asked for another got rm 247 , came back after the show pulled the stained bed cover back to find hair on the sheets, but the bathroom was clean. I get the feeling homless people are put up here as the halway had clothes and towles littered outside of doors. I will say the front desk staff were very nice. Seriously upgrades need to be made to rooms , new sheets and bed spreads need to be purchased and keep the reprobates out of there if your going to run a hotel have some pride. Checkout says 11 am if i didnt have to drive i would have left at 2 am not 6 like we did. Yes this is a real review and im not making things up. By the way the photos of the hotel are not what you see when you get there. No i wasnt expecting the Taj Mahal but how about hiring people who know how to clean rooms.

I couldn't sleep at all! People slamming doors, talking loudly, I could smell cigarette smoke from my room. STAY AWAY!!!

I had a zoom meeting and had a table to place my laptop, but no chair. I had to conduct my business zoom meeting by sitting on the bed. The bathroom sink was very small with little room for my toiletries or to plug in my electric hair setter. The toilet paper was balanced on the handicap accessibility rod because there was no Way to attach it to the toilet roll. The only thing that was good was the price but I doubt I’ll ever come back to you.

This place was dirty and poorly furnished. Beds sagged in the middle like a hammock. Floors were dirty. The bathroom had a hole in the wall with toilet paper stuffed into it. The tub was missing fixtures. The light fixtures were damaged. Overall it was not something I'd recommend taking anyone but a prostitute too.

Ok

The dirtiest place around.

This is by far the worst hotel o have ever stayed in. The lady at the front desk was nice enough, but the state of the hotel, the cleanliness of the room in general and the rank smell of weed and cigarettes for a "non smoking" property was mind blowing. Idk that I'll ever stay at another motel 6 after this weekend.

It was gross!

Staff were extremely accomadating. All of them!!

There isnt great transportation and no places to eat except one place

Worst place ever. Rooms were dirty. Smelled like cigarettes in a non smoking room. Screaming and yelling down the hall. Heard a lady getting beat up next door. The bath tub was so dirty. Garbage in places like in the drawers. Nothing was clean or has been cleaned. People randomly banging on our door. I booked for 2 nights but only stayed for one. I told the front desk about the abuse next door to please call the cops but nothing was done.

Do not book here even if it is free - not worth it.

Run down and Not clean. Place smells like urine. Should be a pay by the hour. Staff were nice and friendly.

Bad smell and too dirty around

The cigarette smell was awful and made me sick.

Horrible hotel.

The property and staff were fine. The location and long-stay guests, like any city, had it's lows. Not recommended for, say, a single lady traveler. Let's just say that some music in the night, and some loud conversations, suggested some less considerate guests.

My son’s pillow was dirty and there was a lot of noise and vulgarity in the hallway, early in the morning.

bad service, filthy room conditions.

This was a extremely bad experience. Staff was not on the same page with policies, pictures do not look like the room in person. The toilet bowl didn’t work properly. The tv remote was broken.

Loud smoky leaky shower spiders and bugs could hear people all night as well as cars and trucks outside

The beds were so comfortable, the doors where a little loud at night, but were very happy and would return

Horrible!! Blood on the walls ! Bed had hair all over it. Unsafe and disgusting

Loved all the staff

One of the staff member was rude

The motel smells musty and moldy as soon as you walk in the front door, if I hadn't been so tired I would have looked around for a different hotel. There was no tv in the room and the beds were very uncomfortable. I couldn't believe that Expedia would even have this Motel on their site. I was very disappointed.

smells cigarette all over the place

Room was not clean whatsoever. Floors weren’t swept, mirrors were not wiped down, sheets had stains and cigarette burns. The box springs could’ve at least had a skirt on them, with how nasty they were. Pet hair and dander everywhere. AC was filled with dust and dirt. Room overall smelt dirty. I couldn’t expect much from a cheap hotel room. But at least clean the damn thing.

Nothing

I saw a mouse in the bathroom.

DO NOT GO THERE. It’s the most disgusting place I’ve ever seen. Smells like weed and cigarette everywhere. We got in the room, turned around and ran away. Dirty sheets, dirty floors. Couldn’t even look at the bathroom. Do yourself a favor and don’t go there. I don’t understand where the pictures come from.

Lobby smelled like cigarette smoke. We were checked into a room that was not made up and filthy!
