My husband and I stayed here one night while visiting his family in the area.
The hotel was easy to find and not far from after exiting Rt 90. It is across from shopping and restaurants at the Colonie Center on Wolf Road.
Our room and the hotel in general were clean, but quite sparse... nothing special or memorable. The sink was outside of the bathroom, which was small. Our room included a small fridge, microwave and coffee maker with Green Mt. coffee pods, all of which were appreciated. I wish there had been more counter area around the sink and microwave. Our queen room had a occasional chair and very small table as well as a desk and accompanying chair. I could have used an extra blanket. There was a small room safe which was a nice extra.
The breakfast buffet was better than expected with a variety of food choices (cereal, eggs, bacon, sausage patties, fresh fruit, yogurt, milk, juices and coffee. The attendant was very efficient and kept the breakfast room well stocked and clean.
We didn't take advantage of the pool and small fitness room, as well as the business center. I think if the lobby was enhanced, the hotel would be more appealing.
This Holiday Inn Express was good for a short stay.
