The room seemed to be extremely run down and outdated. It seemed to be extremely moldy as my partner and I were up coughing almost all night and was fine once we left the property. Other people said the hotel was nice so I assume we just got an outdated room that has not been taken care of

Here’s the revised version with a polite, professional closing directed to management: ⸻ Albion Hotel – Summit, NJ ⭐️⭐️ (2 out of 5 stars) Our recent two-night stay at the Albion Hotel was unfortunately below expectations. While both the guest room and bathroom were clean, several aspects of the stay detracted from the overall experience. Upon arrival, we were not informed how to reach the front desk, and since there was no in-room telephone, I had to go down personally to request a bar of soap. The room lacked basic amenities such as note paper and a pen, and although it was tidy, the furnishings were sparse and did not reflect the standard suggested by the property’s presentation. Additionally, while the bathroom was clean, the door showed visible signs of wear — including chipped paint — and did not close properly. In summary, the stay was adequate in cleanliness but underwhelming in comfort, amenities, and attention to detail. With improved communication, better in-room provisions, and some maintenance updates, the Albion could offer a much more satisfactory guest experience. I hope this feedback is helpful and taken in the spirit intended — to assist management in enhancing the comfort and overall experience for future guests.

The listing said that they had a partnership with a nearby gym. I raised this question. They said they didn’t and offered nothing, not Enron an apology for the bait n switch. Also, WiFi was awful.

The Albion is a walk through history. The building is incredible with architectural features, lobby restaurant, and really nice modern updates. It's a few blocks to downtown Summit and all of the restaurants and shopping. The staff were off the charts friendly and helpful. The cigar bar was a great touch as well.
