Clean, well maintained property. Friendly staff, good breakfast. If you are looking for a reasonably priced, clean place to stay in Albany, look no further. This is an excellent choice. More

I've stayed at this property twice. Rooms are comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast area is well supplied. Shame this hotel doesn't offer room service or have a restaurant for dinner! Wifi was hit and miss on the upper floors but worked well on the lower floors! Would stay here again! More

It was very crowded when we ate and several people were coughing on te food. Gross. The room was very clean and well organized. Not... More

hi! Thank you for this great comment. The hotel is actually celebrating its 16th year this year but we are very lucky to have an owner that continually invests in the property giving it that new look and feel! That magical pancake machine certainly does help!! :) Kathy Tabora General Manager ktabora@turfhotels.com More
