I saw some scary reviews, but took a chance anyway. I think this is a perfectly normal roadside motel. If anything, it's better than average. It's not new, so the age shows at times, but nothing to be screaming about. Room was clean. Large size, good equipment (fridge, microwave, etc). Good towels, bedding. Breakfast was typical (wafflemaker, bagels, cereal, etc). Close to the hwy. In short, if you've stayed in these types of motels before and have the right expectations, I can't imagine why would you be disappointed. I won't hesitate to stay again should I drive by Albany.
