Who Loves The Smell Of Dirty Smoke?

Review of Quality Inn
1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 14 Aug 2019
Do not stay here. The place stinks of old damp smoke, mold or something extremely musty. We booked a room for 1 night and could not even stay. We left shortly after arriving even after having our room changed. Avoid this property unless you like to breathe in smoke smell. The staff was friendly but told me I could not have a refund. I've stayed in other properties without this issue. It definitely could be a health hazard for your family.
Date of stay: August 2019
Room Tip: 2nd floor smells worse than 1st floor.

Dear Valued Guest

Quality Inn wants to apologize for issues you had during your stay. We want to let you know that
our Hotel is now a non-smoking Hotel. We do not allow smoking in our Hotel. Again, I do apologize
for this issue. We also are newly renovated - new carpeting in our rooms, corridors, new walls and
fresh paint in rooms and corridors. We have a new bedding package in all our rooms. The breakfast
and lobby have been renovated as well. I hope you will give us another try so we can have the
opportunity to extend to you a superior stay. You may call me directly to make your next reservation.
We look forward to seeing you.

Sincere Regards,

Dingy, small room with a pronounced smell of cigarettes. Whole hallway smelled of smoke too. No rooms with 2 queens so we asked for a cot. Couldn't get one because there was not anybody to "deliver" them. Would not have for in the teeny room anyhow.

corrections have been made. The good news is Quality Inn in now a non-smoking
Hotel and we have been newly renovated! I hope you will give us another try so we

We visit elderly parents monthly and usually stay somewhere else. But we came and our usual hotel was booked solid. The girl at the front desk was pleasant and extremely helpful... got us into last room at a decent price. That’s where the good ends. The hallways were dirty and smelled bad. The room was semi clean... clean enough but not what we are used to. Air did not work well. We stayed 2 nights but after our first, after being out from 11AM- 10PM, came back to a room that was not serviced. “I’m sorry. I’ll tell the manager.” I went down early in the morning and just asked for some fresh towels. For the extra
$30-50 a night we will definitely return to our usual hotel. In an emergency situation, you do what you have to. But they advertised newly renovated and I didn’t see it. A shame because we come visit so often... could have been convenient.

I came into this hotel intending to stay, my phone was dead, I was very tired and I just needed to call ahead for someone who was waiting on me elsewhere and a tow in the morning.. The night audit desk clerk was extremely rude he not only said no, but threatened to call the police with no provocation. I will never again consider staying at this or any other choice property. I have never felt so alienated at a choice property. I wound up sleeping in my car because I wasn't going to stay after being treated so monstrously.

We stayed here because we were looking for an inexpensive night in Albany for the Elton John concert. Room was clean but some stains on the sheets. Pool, hot tub, and fitness center were nice but not very clean. Breakfast was great and guest service was ok. Would stay again for the price and location.

Room tip: No elevator.
