the hotel was nothing like advertised.As I walked towards the hotel there was a room on the first floor that was missing a doorknob and was closed by using wires or string.Walking up the stairs there were old mattresses in the hallway. the rooms pictured were not close to the one I had..My room had a pungent odor which I thought was possibly an air freshener then I smelled urine.The chair in my room was an old green vinyl chair and this was the source of the urine smell.On the wall I noticed white spots that looked similar to Spackle (?)..I became nauseous and had a horrible pit in my stomach.I did something that I have NEVER done and went to the front desk and told staff I could not stay that I did not feel safe.He informed me that they never had any problems. I had brought a few things to my room and needed to go back and get.When I returned my key he asked if i was going home..I told him I was going to another hotel....I was unable to get my money back since it was non-refundable... I wish I took more pics but I could not leave this place fast enough...

Nice hotel but drug testing of employees should be mandatory. Felt like we were on an episode of Intervention, when speaking to receptionist! In case of an emergency, this could be a big problem. Room seemed clean and nice coffee and donuts in the morning.

This was the start of our road trip and it set the bar high.
Staff were welcoming and friendly.
Breakfast was good.
Room was fantastic.
Very impressed.
Would always go with Econolodge again.
Well done to all in Albany.
