Straight forward motel very clean and good rates . I ended up there because all other hotels in Albany were sold out but am considering using them now for business trips and save a lot of money ,
Last minute stay for baseball tournament. Room served purpose of a place to sleep. Bathroom faucet leaked, discovered moldy ac vent in middle of the night, as room was not cooling off
There was a dead mouse in the toilet when we went into the bathroom after unloading our things. Syrup under the glass top on the night stand. Rug was dirty and stained. Bed was ok.
Nice, Quiet, Affordable. Located near Sears shopping mall and Target with some other stores to see. Mini fridge and microwave were nice as was the cable tv. Furniture in the room I was in had some stains but nothing to bad or terrible. Bed and bed sheets were clean and comfortable. Carpet felt slightly odd to walk on in socks or barefoot(use slippers if you have them), carpet was not dirty tho. I would definitely recommend and I already booked another stay. 7.5 or 8/10, honestly a pleasant little hotel.
The ropm was absolutely filthy. The walls had old drips from something that they never cleaned. The shower was so slippery that we had to stand on a towel to avoid falling. Cobwebs in every corner. There were no blankets, just a thin dirty bedspread. w was never
Stayed in a smoking room this time, it wasn't bad; a few cigarette holes in the top blanket on the bed(kinda expected something like this before I got there). Apart from that the room and carpet overall were clean. Room had a microwave and mini fridge just like the non smoking room I stayed in the last time. Opted for a double bed or over a king sized bed room, I enjoyed it. Planning a longer trip next time, this will be the 3rd trip I spent there, I enjoy coming to this hotel.
Room very clean. Deadbolt works. I did not try TV. Staff friendly to me. I have stayed at a lot of hotels and Scottish Inn is a good value for the price range, which is low for the Colonie Mall/Target area, Albany, NY. Close to major bus stop for getting around rest of city, and airport-train-bus stations within an hour.
The place was nothing like described, it is basically a cheap road MOTEL and not a hotel. The room had a horrible smell, a combination of cigarettes and a strong spray trying to cover that. The shower was broken, the reception did sent someone to fix it but there wasn't a proper solution besides trying to open it again and hope it will work. The room was filthy, the carpet was full of dirt and the sheets on the bed were not clean. There were no blankets on the bed (only a sheet) and the guy in the reception argued with us over the phone when we asked for 2 blankets (we were two people who are not a couple so sharing a blanket was not really an option. The atmosphere itself was not welcoming and a bit scary. We ended up leaving for another hotel after only 30 min there. Highly not recommended!
Pros: itâs overall clean, AC works well, and water was hot.
Cons: AC is the old under the window unit with heat, and was very loud. As others mentioned, place was overall clean except for a nasty stain on the carpeting.
Verdict: Unless you need a smoking room, spend the extra $30 to stay somewhere newer/nicer.
Great and relax stay.
This motel is well located, surrounding by many restaurants and stores. The parking space is big and well illuminated at night . The room has the basic amenities. Flat screen TV with usb and HMDI connections. WiFi was strong and reliable all times. If you are a light sleeper ask for a room upstairs. They gave me a room in the street level and in the morning the people upstairs was driving me crazy. The manager and the front desk lady well very nice and profesional.
