I stay at a lot of hotels every year -- at least 80-100 hotel room nights each year. This is one of my favorite places to stay on a business trip mainly because it is convenient, well priced, and the staff are so good. From the manager to the cleaning staff everyone treats me well. Nothing is ever a problem... More

We arrived somewhere around 1230AM in the middle of a wind storm. We were unable to book our room online due to Marriot's website having some type of malfunction. We found a rate on line for $89.00 which is including a AAA discount.When we arrived they quoted us $129.00.I explained our dilemma but the desk clerk would not give us... More

Used for an overnight between the wake and funeral of a good friend's Mother, an Albany native. The room was nicely appointed and obviously remodeled within recent history. Senior rate was around $150, a tad stiff. Went to great lengths at check in to provide the additional documentation the amended the rate lower. Handed it to the Front Desk Clerk... More

Stayed at this hotel for business on January 9th. It was the first time I stayed here and the experience was excellent. It is newly remodeled and Marriott has done a wonderful job with the interiors, rooms and common areas. The touch screen information center is a pretty cool too. I typically do not review business hotels but this one... More

Stayed at a suite for two months straight, and while everything is modern and clean and "hip," the room was not designed or built for a long-term stay. There's no free breakfast, not even a cup of tea or coffee (everything is for-purchase, which is typical of Courtyard). The bathroom was tiny - its door barely cleared the toilet before... More

On a recent trip to U Albany we had the pleasure of chosing this hotel. From the moment we arrived and were greeted by "T", probably one of the nicest and friendliest desk clerks we have ever met, to our checkout, the stay was amazing. The rooms are large and clean, the beds extremely comfortable, and the ammeneties were modern.... More

This has to be the nicest Courtyard I've ever stayed at. Very modern, clean lobby and lounge area. Having the bistro in the lounge was a great touch. The Thai soup was yummy-impressive for hotel food. There is a well-stocked mini-market with microwave provided for any late night cravings. My room was clean and stylish. The bed was very comfortable.... More

This was the first stay at this hotel but it won't be the last. We had to check in very late in the evening and the kitchen was closed but the desk clerk offered to get us something to eat or drink (within reason). We had already had dinner so we got a drink. The room was beautiful and very... More

First time stay at this hotel, in with colleagues, and couldn't say enough about this hotel. The decor is just beautiful, unpretentious, but impressive and inviting. Comfy room, lots of space and friendly, outgoing service. Love it!! More
