Location is good enough. Typical motel room. Clean and unimpressive. Nonsmoking room but it was a little bit smelly. But you can park next to your room door and it is pet friendly! The TV set is old style but WIFI is very good. The price was great. Many restaurants in the area. Good for one night but if I... More

Better late than never. I must admit I've been meaning to write this review since last October. We were on a family holiday and this stop was the last leg en route to Boston. It was a perfect place to stay with prices around what you'd expect to pay for camping in England and the staff and facilities were excellent.... More

My son had a doctors appointment 10mins away and after reading the reviews of the surrounding hotels I found this to be our best bet. The room smelled musty and one of the curtains was broken and didn't close completely. The shower was hot and I didn't find any spiders or other insects. The tv kept getting fuzzy on us... More

No bugs! Clean bathroom. Heat worked quickly. Breakfast was OK with cereal, juice and an English Muffin (no fruit). Decent place for the money. $10 to have our dog with us. We arrived late and the concierge was awake. We had a ground floor room. The grounds where we walked the dog were pretty grimey with litter and years of... More

I spent one night in this hotel and it was fantastic for the price. The room was clean and pretty comfortable. They had a strong WiFi signal. The bathroom appeared to be recently renovated. The staff was efficient and I was able to check in and out quickly. It had a "continental" breakfast which was not a high point, but... More

Easy to find. Helpful and competent staff. Large, clean, comfortable room though very basic decor (e.g., no artwork on the walls). Only complaints we had were the room heater was noisy (we turned it off and were a bit chilly during the night as a result) and the bathroom fan was also noisy. Maybe we're more sensitive to noise than... More

This hotel held the standards of a travel economy facility very well. Well managed and nice people. It's always nice when the wifi signal is strong and really works. Breakfast was plain and simple but they didn't skimp.

This motel is a fairly typical Econo Lodge. It's convenient if you're traveling through on I-87/I-88/I-90 although it is a bit of a drive to downtown Albany. It was an older motel, but my room was clean and comfortable. The service was good, and I would recommend it. The breakfast was fairly basic (bagels and cereal).

Econo Lodge in Albany is located on a main road, easy to find, easy to park and get around. We were only in town one night to visit friends. We found our room to be clean, spacious, and freshly painted. We had no trouble with noise, and there were several trucks in the parking lot when we left. Yes, it's... More

Our room was very clean and spacious. The decor wasn't too bad either. It was safe and centrally located to everything. I was familiar with Albany as I grew up there as a child. I was visiting because my mom is in Albany Medical Center Hospital. The interstates were very convenient to the Econo Lodge. The price of the motel... More
