Pleasant Night Stay
This was a very pleasant 1 night stay over for myself and my wife. We traveled to participate in a milestone birthday for our 80 year young cousin.

Fine for airport hotel
This was fine for a short stay before an early morning flight. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Airport shuttle was fine. Accommodations were acceptable. Walking distance to lots of restaurants. Sound-proofing not great but I had quiet neighbors.

It was a clean and pleasant place to stay. The only drawback was the rowdy kids using the pool. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. It was close to the airport and a shuttle was available

Worth What You Pay For
Overall, I liked this stay a lot. The Inn is a bit dated but it is clean, the staff is very friendly and the place has most of the amenities that the big chains have. I took advantage of the free breakfast for the five (5) days I was there and wasn’t disappointed a bit. A fine selection if cereals, microwavable breakfast sandwiches and a waffle station was enough to get the day started for sure. The rooms were clean but the towels need to be replaced as they have seen better days. The layout is as good as anyplace else and I had a microwave, refrigerator and coffee maker in my room. The pool area was excellent and had an outdoor area to sit or barbecue or both. There was an office area to print a boarding pass and a gym with enough (newer) equipment to work up a sweat. For what you get, the price is VERY good as I’ve paid double per night in a lot if other places for the same amenities. Definitely keeping The Albany Airport Inn on my list.

They have done a great job of renovating an older facility. The breakfast was great...more than I expected. The rooms are small and the bathrooms tiny. But clean and comfortable.
