The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The water pressure in the shower was nonexistent. The building could definitely use some updates. Free parking and it was conveniently located right off the highway. The free breakfast was a hot breakfast with scrambled eggs, home fries and sausage. Some cereal, a few muffins and toast. My only real complaint was that it did smell of cigarette smoke and weed.

To quote my sister, “I could spit into my own hand and get more water than that shower is giving us.” Linens were slightly stained, there were no towels when we asked for new ones. Better than a tent for a night, but wouldn’t go out of my way for it again.

This hotel has great check-in and check-out service, the front desk people are great and the staff are pleasant and they provide good cleaning services. However, the entire hotel is shabby and dated. For instance, the lamps and light fixtures are in good working order but they are old, scratched, etc. Everything in the room is in the same shabby conditions and you won’t find more than one bath towel, hand towel or facecloth even though it was 2 person occupancy, no tissues too and in general absolutely no amenities. Now, it took me a few minutes to realize but this hotel is a “welfare hotel”, a place that is paid for by the state for homeless individuals and families and though that’s a great program for people in need, I believe that such a fact should be disclosed. It’s also important for me to note that the night was extremely quiet and the other guests, although it was clear that some were homeless, were quiet and mindful of the other guests. We chose this hotel because we couldn’t find a vacancy in Saratoga that was either available or less than $1000 a night and understandably so because it was the weekend of the Belmont race (which is why we were there) and we did not want to pay those prices. The room was perfect for what we needed and that being a place to sleep and bathe and while closing on a positive note, the beds were wonderful and so very comfortable and we were pleased to get a good night’s sleep!

The hotel room had a broken toilet seat and a toilet that was about 8 in off the floor. There were hairs in the bathroom and stains on the sheets. We asked to move to another room. The whole hotel smelled like pot. A beggar approached us as we walked in the front door. Definitely not worth the cost savings.

Perfect stay at Albany

My first time visiting Albany, it was for business, and all I need is clean quiet place to sleep. Yes, the hotel was not the little old building, which I could pick some aged detail, I could nick pick here and there such as cracked paint spots here and there. But overall, very clean and quiet. very nice hotel, I do not need anything luxury to sleep peacefully. Bathroom was very clean and nice, so does all towel and sheets. I was surprised they also have nice free breakfast. For the price, this is the best hotel in Albany.

This Ramada is a disgrace to the Ramada name brand. Internet is terrible, no blanket or comforter on bed just 2 sheets. Phone and TV in the room not working. They left previously used toiletries in the bathroom. The room was so dirty and the furnitures rusty. Them people had the nerves to tell me that the bed did not have no blanket when I checked out knowing that they didn’t have any in there. The towels are so small you can even wrap yourself in them. Housekeeping is only on demand. To get new towels you have to return the dirty ones and when you do they only give you one. No trash bag for the trash can. The elevators had a horrible smell like something had died in there, they tried to spray it makes it even worse. Apparently when you check out you have to wait for them to check the room for so call missing items which they don’t even have in the room when you check in. Overall this place is a mess, they need to shut it down or pass it to someone who can renovate it and bring it up to par!!! I would not recommend anyone to stay there.

This was easily one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Albany is in a shocking state of disrepair, and I regret not reading more reviews before booking. Let’s start with breakfast — if you can even call it that. A prison meal would be an upgrade. Stale bread, watery juice, and rubbery eggs that looked like they’d been sitting out since the night before. Honestly, they’d be better off not offering breakfast at all. It’s almost insulting. The room was no better. The door didn’t even lock properly, which is a major safety issue. I didn’t feel secure for a single minute. On top of that, the TV was tiny and ancient, like something from the early 2000s, and barely worked. The internet was completely useless on the 6th floor — zero signal, no matter how many times I tried reconnecting. Add in musty smells, stained carpets, and unhelpful staff, and this place feels like it’s been forgotten by the Wyndham brand. I don’t know how it’s still in business. Save yourself the headache and spend your money somewhere else.

Paint smears and drips on bathroom molding, toilet seat, ductwork needs cleaning. Two hangers in closet, not enough, shelves, and guard bars in refrigerator missing. Needs to be defrosted. interior of window needs to be cleaned, probably hasn’t been cleaned in at least a year. Overall needs to be repainted in minor repairs.

Hotel bath room need renovation

The front desk lady is friendly and helpful. The room is clean, but the property is old with leaking tap in the shower with limited water flow, the shower tub should be replaced as when I step in the bath tub, I feel the bottom of it is floating on the water, i.e. it moves. The blanket on the bed is too thin and we have to raise the room temperature to 77F to be able to sleep. The door lock is hard to open with the assigned card and I have to ask the front desk lady to help us to open the door several times. The breakfast is fine with on onsite service person to distribute the food to avoid waste.

The hotel looked run-down. The staff was friendly, but it wasn't clean. We found a dead roach on the wall and a bug crawling on the bed. I had reserved two rooms (139 and 140), and in one of the rooms we could not take a shower cause the mat was dirty. I was disappointed. But it was only for one night.
