Don’t waste your money or time
Hotel is in a very dark neighborhood and overall feels unsafe. Manager is rude and throws around the word police at the first sign of you having a complaint with your room or service. No hospitality, bugs everywhere and rooms not clean. Wifi barely works and when it doesn’t staff doesn’t know how to resolve. Choice Hotels should be ashamed to call this a location!

Nice place to stay for an overnight. Close to many stores and restaurants. Staff was friendly. Complimentary breakfast was good. There wasn't any hot water for tea or fruit, but it was fine.

NEVER, EVER AGAIN!
Booking thru Hotels.com went smoothly. Description stated "Pet Friendly" and breakfast included. Upon arrival, waited 20 minutes for the "Manager" Bob Patel to check in the couple ahead of me - took him a while because he had to repeat himself a lot - english not being his best language. Looking around the lobby, I noticed a small sign stating there was a $20 charge for dogs and a $50 charge if you tried to sneak a dog in! Nothing about that in the Hotels.com description and that hardly qualifys as "Pet Friendly"! Manager Patel wouldn't budge and was downright rude. My wife and I (and small dog) had just driven 500 miles and were too tired to look for another motel. The room was only minimally clean, with dirt in all the corners. Expecting a good breakfast? Expect generic sweetened fruit loops and sweetened cherios with milk from a thermos bottle. No fresh fruit, no juice. Indescribably terrible coffee.

Good for a one Nighter
This place is good for a one night stay. The rooms were clean, but were very outdated. The location was good for anybody who needs to go to Schenectady or Albany to do business or see family. Check in with quick continental breakfast Soso.

You get what you pay for. Fairly clean except for bathtub which had pubic hair in the mat. Took a shower with slippers on. Room is simple and outdated. Convenient area with gas station next door. Easy to find, you can park right outside your room.

Worst Hotel We’ve Ever Stayed In
Possible drugs all over one of the broken nightstands, light fixture hanging open with exposed wires, pills and bugs and random junk on the floor with a 9 month and two year old in the room. The shower drain didn’t drain so you took a bath no matter what, unidentified, gross looking substance in one of the beds and stains/burn holes all over both beds. Wish I had taken photos now it didn’t even cross my mind to.
