Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
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.

I guess you could say that I’m a regular. If I go to Albany, I am now pretty much staying at the Hampton Inn. You can always rely on a Hilton property.

Property and service were great. Expedia charged me twice and they still haven't cleared it up. The hotel worked very hard to get it resolved, even telling Expedia that they were not charging me for the second reservation. So that means Expedia took my money.
