The older lady that works the front desk is completely rude and doesnt pay attention to her job. i dont understand how you can make a mistake when i clearly communicated to not charge the card on file and handed her another. yet she still charges the card on file because apparently she was distracted with her delivery order that came in while i was checking in. then i call her to ask her what happened and she goes call the bank their is nothing i can do and hangs up the phone. she is rude and if she doesn't like her job then she should quit and go to a nursing home.

The room smelled moldy and like smoke. Carpet stained. Bed sagged. We did not stay. They did refund our credit card.

Room clean Listed as house keeping- no eating utensils, minimal pots/pans No garbage pickup unless put outside door- no one told us that,we just saw others do it. No liners for garbage cans emptied. Very miserly giving coffee for 2 people- 2 cups and had to ask for that. Hand full of cheap plastic forks etc on request. Since we lived nearby( needed room to to home construction). We could go get needed items at home. Room had alit of potential,but management did not make effort

Room was dirty, old, could not provide one extra towel and was not the room type we booked. We left the property and did not stay. They refunded the charges and we went to another hotel. Seems the crest hill suites across from SUNY Albany on Washington Avenue has become an older tired hotel that caters to cheap rates for out of town contractors. I would not stay there unless the property was renovated and upgraded.

Maintenance is overdue. Needs a refresh. Far too many yappy dogs and no effort to help quiet them. Staff friendly. Location food. Breakfast impressive. Good value.
