Weekend Getaway

  • lucid
  • Apr 16, 2012
We were looking for a simple LOW COST room and this was a good value. Our room was small but adequate. The bathroom was clean but the main room could have been a little cleaner. Bed was comfortable. WiFi internet in the room worked well. Staff was friendly and courteous. Hallway doors made some noise when closing, but once we knew where the noise came from we had no trouble sleeping through it. Self serve breakfast buffet was limited but acceptable for this type of hotel. The location directly across from a large Mall and many area restaurants was ideal for us. We would stay at this hotel again.

We stayed there for one night in the middle of our trip. When we got there at 1am the toilet and shower in our room had no running water so they had to move us into a smaller room. Both of the rooms were clean. The carpets and bathrooms were very old though. For one night it was ok. BOTTOM LINE: I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND FOR FAMILIES OR FOR MORE THAN ONE NIGHT.

Great staff, not a great location

  • SteveInVA
  • Apr 23, 2012
We booked this hotel since it was the preferred lodging for a nearby wedding. In that respect, it was very convenient. That said, the neighborhood is not great. The hotel is located close to what is considered the "waterfront" in Albany, but take my word for it, this neighborhood is not an area in which you would like to take a casual stroll...and the waterfront is not worth the walk. The waterfront is fairly barren, as is the neighborhood. The hotel is next to a bus station and a number of industrial buildings. After attempting a walk, we quickly retreated to our car and tried driving around the area. Unfortunately, we learned that this part of Albany is fairly economically depressed. Try as we might, the best that we could find was a section perhaps a half a mile away with a number of bars (and perhaps restaurants) spread over a two block stretch. We were sure that we were missing some area in which we could walk, take in the sites, and perhaps window shop...but both our experience and speaking with locals quickly dispelled this notion. It appears that many have abandoned the city for the suburbs...and there does not appear to be much left in the city for the average tourist. The good news is that the staff was super friendly and very helpful...and the rooms were clean. The views on the other hand...well, let's just say that if you get the view of the parking lot, you are lucky. Our view was of a highway and train tracks...and yes, the train comes by fairly often. In our travels we came across another HI Express further to the west that appeared to be in a safer, more suburban neighborhood. Again, it's not a walkable neighborhood, but I am getting the feeling that not many go to Albany to take in the sites. Sad. NY needs to invest more in their capital region.

Nice hotel, slightly expensive

  • Caromu
  • Jan 20, 2012
They may have raised the rates because there was an event at the Empire State Plaza Convention Center at the time, but the hotel was a bit expensive. However, it had a shuttle that brought guests wherever they needed to go and provided breakfast in the morning. Great location and the shuttle definitely made it worth the stay because taxis are very expensive.

This hotel does not deserve its old bad reviews. Granted, it is not in the best location but it has very easy access from Interstate 90. Staff was polite and helpful with directions to downtown Albany, which is only 10-15 minutes away. Central Ave which was once the main drag for restaurants still has its share of decent places. A great Vienamese restaurant, for example. The price is very reasonable and the location is the tradeoff. The hotel room was not filthy or smelly as older reviews suggested. I would stay there again. A good alternative to Wolf road area if you want to save some money and can deal with the location. A older hotel but still a decent hotel.

  • Jun 28, 2010
We were just passing through and stayed one night. We got a smoking room, but it smelled like someone just finished smoking in there. The only real complaint I'd have would be about the bathroom. It was too small (only the shower and toilet were able to fit in the "room" part. The sink was outside.) and the water was SUPER WEAK! I had to shower twice as long to get all the soap and shampoo off. Aside from that, the place was quiet and comfortable and was worth the price.

My home away from home

  • Melanie B.
  • Mar 3, 2012
I come into Albany regularly, and after trying out most of the cheap hotels on Central and Wolf, I've pretty much committed myself to staying at the HoJo. They have good wifi, a good selecting of TV stations, perfectly fine rooms, and a very good contimental breakfast that isn't set up in the front lobby, so I can enjoy it in my pajamas without having someone looking over my shoulder the whole time. Housekeeping had the uncommon sense to leave the heat on and the TV on while I was gone for the day- I HATE walking into an icy room in the winter.

Excellent Value for Money

  • asmot
  • Apr 25, 2012
When many similar hotels in the Capital Region of Albany are charging $160 +, this Comfort Inn is a steal at just $117. Well managed, good breakfast included plus a free Wall Street Journal. Really good value!

Convenient Comfort

Location was convenient (close to I-87, IHOP and Starbuck's). Staff was very helpful even after checkout avoiding a near-catastrophe when my daughter left a favorite stuffed animal in the room. Even so, it was a bit pricier than I would have liked.

Great Hotel, Great Location!!!

  • May 8, 2010
I found the staff to be friendly and very helpful, great location very near the Capital and Empire Plaza. Ate lunch at the bar on the second floor and food was excellent. Drawback for some may be no tub. Huge walk in shower was great for me. Will definitely stay there again.

Hotel is new, comfortable- clean, somewhat sparse/spacious rooms. The staff is relatively young, polite and pleasant. Food is relatively anodyne.

Safe hideaway in Albany

  • Maxy
  • Oct 5, 2011
We were a little apprehensive about crime and vandalism in an unknown large city so were relieved to find the motel in a very safe and upscale neighbourhood. A "5 Guys" restaurant was a block away which was perfect for our group. Breakfast at the motel was much better than most, lots of choices and free. The motel was near where the 87 Northway begins or ends so this was very convenient for us. My only tiny quibble was that their was no exhaust fan in the bathroom so the mirror took a few minutes to defog after a shower. Motels at twice the price offer no more.

Just Ok for the price

  • Robert
  • Aug 12, 2008
We stayed at the hotel for the convienience of attending the NY Giants training camp as well as Saratoga Race Track. SUNY Albany is directly across the street. It was our second stay at the hotel. I think that next time I'm going to go somewhere else. The room's walls were a little beat up and the carpet had numerous stains. I must have forgotten but you don't get daily room service other then getting new towels (If requested). However the staff were very friendly. There are many other hotels along the same strip of Washington Ave to choose from. I think next time I'll spend a little more and and stay somewhere else. If you're not too picky about hotel rooms this hotel will suit you fine. The rooms have a refrigerator, stove, microwave, etc.,

Worst Hotel Experience Ever

  • Lisa
  • Nov 27, 2007
At check in the receptionist could not even answer simple questions or give me directions to my room or where to park. The room was filthy. The bed looked like it had been slept in. The pillows were yellow and spotted and in addition to the dirty ;inenes I have never seen such a filthy mattress cover or blanket in a hotel. The carpets has large ares of stain and burn holes. The room had a strong, peculiar odor. I could not regulate the heat and the curtains would not draw completely closed. I asked for a second room which was just as bad. I went to the front desk and a different receptionist went and got me a NEW mattress cover and pillows and blanket and sheets and pillow cases that had been washed. Overall, this hotel was not remotely how it was described and I certainly would not even consider giving it a second try despite my frequent trips to Albany.

A nice place to stay in Albany

  • Rarn Child
  • Apr 5, 2011
The family took a week-end road trip to Albany to see the Albany Devils games Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. We got there early enough on Saturday to walk around and check out the sites. We were happy that the hotel was on the "right" side of Delaware Avenue. The room was clean, comfortable and nicely furnished - plenty of room for us 3 adults and 1 baby. The kitchen would have come in very handy if we were able to stay longer. My favorite thing - the freshly made waffles at the FREE breakfast! Delicious! The only complaint I have is that we had to check out at 11:00 - and the game didn't start until 4:00. Being a Sunday, there wasn't much to do in town. We took a ride out on the highway to a mall and spent time there and ate before the game. It would have been nice to have been able to stay in the room until 1:00.

Clean, convenient, accommodating weekend stay

  • Collegian Mom
  • Oct 31, 2011
We were visiting our son for parents weekend at college in Troy,NY, so the location of the hotel was just right in Albany near the airport. The drive to Troy was only 10 minutes. Our first room was comfortable and very clean, but very noisy--we were right beside the stairs on the second floor with a door that slammed shut loudly with any foot traffic, which started early with the breakfast crowd Sat. AM. However, we requested another room that morning and the staff was very polite and accommodating; the next room was perfect--almost identical to the first room, overlooking the lovely inner courtyard garden, and quiet !!! The indoor pool was clean, refreshing! Breakfast was delicious, well maintained, nutritious, and abundant. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and may return in the Spring for graduation.

I took my daughter to check out Univ of Albany so the location of the hotel was perfect. The staff was really friendly and very helpful about how to get around the area and recommendations. The room was really clean and comfortable. The beds were really comfortable as well. Wifi was easy to connect to and the continental breakfast in the morning was pretty good. Since my daughter chose UAlbany I'll definitely be staying there again.

Decent Motel

  • Tip Toes
  • Jun 5, 2011
All I needed was a place to lay my head, be by myself and this was it. It was not a 5 star hotel by any means. It had what I wanted, clean bed, tv, clean towels, no bells and whistles.

Place to stay near Rt 87

  • Rt 87 Traveler
  • Mar 13, 2011
I needed a place to stay traveling on Rt 87. It was a great price, but you get what you pay for. The bed was very clean and comfortable and the sink was clean. Other than that, the room needed replacements. A lot of the room was older. The area was fairly safe to stay. This is a good place to stay if you just need a good night's rest. Check in and out was fast.

Great accomodations, great service!

This was our last stop after attending our granddaughter's graduation from Vassar. We had one night to relax and recuperate from a very busy weekend. The hotel is located a short distance from major expressways (easy to find), about 10-15 minutes from the airport and is quiet and the rooms are large and nicely furnished. As this was our only night away from family, we chose to eat a quiet dinner and see a movie at the local mall. I would highly recommend Houlihans Restaurant in the Crossgates Mall.
