My stay at this hotel was long and pleasurable. They have an amazing breakfast everyday & dinner 3 nights a week. Also free laundry which most hotels do not offer. After work I was always greeted by the hotel staff. Lataysha or Lorenzo happily had my mail and abundance of packages taking care of and let me know promptly if I had something that day. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the area.

I am usually Hilton or Marriott person and for over two decades I have been exclusively staying at these properties. I have diamond with Hilton and platinum status with marriott. I hold platinum status with IHG. Recently, I started staying in IHG hotels and I must admit, these hotels are as good as other two. In fact, I’ll say this particular location is way better and cheaper compared to big two. Staybridge is Homewood suites or residence inn equivalent of IHG. Rooms are spacious and come with full size kitchen. I stayed here on my way to north for a night and I had good rest. I was in one bedroom two queen bed suite. Bed and pillows are comfortable. Staff is extremely friendly and breakfast had really really nice spread. There were options like cereal, milk, coffee tea, boiled & scrambled eggs, oatmeal, fruits and you can make your own parfait using various ingredients like all the fresh berries and dry fruits. This is kind of breakfast they serve in Asian and middle hotels chains. Also, breakfast was open past 11am! That doesn’t happen in almost any chains at Hilton and Marriott. Bathroom was bit smaller but not a deal breaker if you consider size of the room. Overall I am very happy with my stay here and I will definitely return when I am staying in the area. Thank you staybridge for make this stay unexpectedly beautiful and memorable.

I had to come to Albany for training for my Job and this hotel was excellent! I will say my room had a stale smell at first but I just put a wall plug in and it helped! But the staff were great! They had free breakfast and cool social nights with free food Monday-Wednesday. How cool is that! Also Lataysha at the front desk was so helpful and friendly! She’s great!

This place is wonderful. Breakfast every day, dinner Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, free laundry facilities, and in room kitchen make this a very affordable and relaxing choice. The staff are all top notch and very friendly, especially Liz. Most of the same staff members have been here for 3+ years I've been staying here. It has a very relaxed, warm, inviting vibe.
