My wife and I stayed 2 nights, arriving at 1 PM and parking in their covered and gated lot. The nice receptionist processed our Master Card and issued the key card. We carted our bags to one of the 2 elevators and up to the 7th floor.
Room #710 opened to 2 comfortable queens, a dresser unit with TV(difficult channel guide), desk and chair, easy chair and ottoman, unit with microwave, refrigerator and coffee maker and fully outfitted bathroom with tub shower(passive ventilation). The secure room WIFI was strong, the window, with an unobtrusive AC/heat unit, looked onto the Albany Medical Center. I used the 7 station gym and did “easy laps” in the small indoor pool. I requested Keurig refills and a bag with 4 coffees, creams and cups was placed in our room.
There is a Starbucks and a bar/grille on site, a Panera 1 block down the street and 3 blocks farther is Washington Park. This clean, quiet 129 room hotel with private parking provides a nice stay at a Gold member rate of $121/night.
