Pros:

Bare bones stay. Clean enough but rough - new vinyl plank floor but chipped and worn dresser, night stands. Good enough for a more inexpensive stay but definitely no frills

Best value for money in Rensselaer area. It is located by the main road which is connected to highways and freeways.

Pros:

I didn't like the fact the room smelled like smoke. The dead bees on the floor. Not hot water in the evenings and the hot water knob just krpt turning around and you couldn't turn down the hot burning water. Bees around the door way as you walked into the room. Outlets that were melted from a electrical fire and never changed. The TV wasn't working half the time we were there. We ended up leaving a day earlier than planned because of the conditions. I do not recommend this establishment for anyone to stay at. Shouldn't be on the list to be available for guests. Also no continental breakfast was available either.

Pros:

Room was very clean and staff very friendly. The room could just use an update of the furniture, but def not a deal breaker.

Pros:

Good value for the money. Stayed here on our bicycle ride along the Empire State Trail, the hotel is a very short and flat ride from the trail. The grocery store is a short bicycle ride from the hotel, and the store has a bicycle stand.

Pros:

We reserved a no smoking room. The room we were given reeked of smoke. There were cigarette burn holes in the bedspreads. There was mold growing on the walls. It was so disgusting we left. I couldn’t even imagine sleeping there.

Great and helpful management. The property is quite old, but has everything you need and is a good deal given the low cost

Incredibly horrible room
Pros:

We got the impression the room and others part of this hotel had been used to house homeless people, who hadn't used it well.

Pros:

Price was great. You get what you pay for.
It appears that this location is used for long term housing for folks. Non-smoking room smelled of smoke. Had to get a different room. Room was clean as was bath room. TV control was horrible. Not sure who to blame on that. Couldn’t access channels listed in lineup. Noisy neighbors. AC sounded like a dump trunk when it kicked on. Bed was situated on a tin can base. Made “hollow” can sounds when I rolled over. Very very few amenities (although none were really listed). Only one chair in room. Might be suitable for a single person, but the wife wasn’t too happy.

Pros:

Found it very disturbing we reserved a non smoking room to walk in and be surprised it wasn't and had been smoked in. You can even see it on the back of the door badly yellowed. It was so late there was no way to change rooms, so we put on masks and dealt with it even though we are both allergic. Eight hours later we were up getting ready for the day and didn't like the looks of the shower so we skipped on that. There was a couple arguing and seeming to live there that we felt unsafe with. I went looking for the ice machine and it was in an obscure hallway with building materials in it. The bottom of the machine is rusted from the leaking pool of water under it. Sorry but I will never be back to this location again.

Dont waste your money
Pros:

As we walked into the room,there was a bug crawling down the wall,as we looked around we also noticed burn holes in bothe bed blankets. The walls had something thrown on it and never has been washed off,kids footprints on the wall, dirty floors,headboard was so nasty. Do not stay there Ever worse place I have ever seen. I ended up renting another hotel room and got
My full refund from that nasty room. TERRIBLE AND NASTY ROOM.
