The staff was extremely rude and unfriendly upon arrival. I stood at the counter for 15 minutes with a toddler before someone decided I was good enough to be taken care of. There were two employees there bluntly ignoring me. The pool area was well kept though.

We stayed at the Marriott to attend our son’s graduation from University at Albany. The location was great, it was so close to all of the stores and restaurants which were so convenient. Great bar and restaurant at the property where we had breakfast. Staff was friendly. Our room was okay, the bathroom was a strange layout, the toilet was so close to the shower. You had to be careful not to knock your head on the shower door. However, my father stayed in a room down the hall from us and his bathroom was fine. The hallways could use some updating. But it was a clean space and the hotel met our needs.

There was a VFW conference being held at the hotel. The participants booked suites and held parties until late into the night that were loud and there was excessive cigarette smoke that permeated the halls of the hotel. The staff did was very helpful and moved our room away from one of the parties (at almost 11pm), but it was impossible to escape the cigarette smoke which was everywhere.

The TV did not have an HDMI port, so my son could not play his games while he waited for me. The breakfast was $22 and was NOT CLOSE to worth it. The bathroom was super cramped with no shelving or stools or hooks for clothing. Other than that, the pool was amazing (don't forget the goggles).

Clearly the manager has never looked at the property from the perspective of a customer. Arrived at night in rain. Parking lot full had to lane out back. No problem there is a big sign there “lobby.” Standing there in rain can’t get in without a key. Why have the sign? They could have had a button to talk to front desk and get buzzed in. Desk says they get that complaint before. Get to room. No water bottles. A full Marriott at $250 a night and they can’t leave water in the room? Is this Motel 6? Called front desk for water. Phone rings three times then disconnects. System is broken. Went to front desk. They are busy. Wait in line for water. Desk staff is nice. They have already told manager rooms should have water. Manager has not made it happen. Next morning for breakfast. Pancakes and crispy bacon. 20+ minutes for food. Bacon is soggy. Sorry they are waiting for the oven to heat up. Ate the pancakes (excellent) and left never got the bacon. Waitress said she told them first time bacon was wrong. Why did they serve it? Overall this facility needs a new general manager.

This hotel was honestly amazing. The bed felt like I was laying on a cloud. It had the best shower head I've ever had, in a hotel. The only reason I'm giving this a 4-star is because both the indoor and outdoor pool was very cold. My son was very excited to have a pool and we didn't last more than 20 minutes due to its temperature.

I’m writing to share feedback following my recent stay with my family at the Marriott Albany over the weekend. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the cleanliness of our room upon arrival. The floors were visibly dirty, the bathroom appeared not to have been properly cleaned, and there were black, mold-like spots in the shower. For the price we paid, we expected a much higher standard of cleanliness and comfort. While I want to acknowledge that the front desk staff was kind and accommodating, the condition of the room made our experience far below what we’ve come to expect from Marriott. It has certainly made me hesitant about choosing other Marriott locations in the future. I hope you’ll take this feedback seriously and address these issues to improve the experience for future guests.

Rooms

Rooms earn praise for comfortable beds and some quiet stays, but many report dated decor, maintenance problems (HVAC, outlets, fixtures), and noise from hallways or nearby rooms. In-room amenities feel limited for the price, with no microwave in many rooms and Wi‑Fi that can be paid or unreliable.

Less than I expected. The outlet in the bathroom didn’t work. The provided hair dryer didn’t work. The fan cover in the shower fell during my husband’s shower. The rooms were clean but the refrigerator was very small and there was no microwave. Very dated. Since the rates are higher than many other places, I expected more. Wouldn’t stay again.

Specifically requested to be in a quiet area they put us across from the ice machine and throughout the night younger people were running back-and-forth in the corridor. In addition, the housekeeping service kept knocking on the door or just simply trying to open the door to the room from 7 AM on, I am requesting that you refund our nights stay which was Friday night. We spoke to Bobby Saturday morning at the front desk and she said she would reach out to the general manager about this

We could hear a lot of noise from the room next to ours and in the hallway. The AC was making a loud noise while closing. If you're not a Marriott member you'll have to pay for the internet. Overall it was nice, but we had a better experience in a cheaper hotel.

Dear Management, I am writing to formally express our disappointment regarding the unresolved issues we faced during our recent stay at your establishment. Upon checking into our room, we immediately noticed that the air conditioning was not functioning, making the room extremely uncomfortable. Additionally, the main light switch was defective and could not be turned off, which further disrupted our experience, especially during the night. At 10pm, we promptly informed the front desk about these problems and requested a room change. We had to wake our kids up for this matter. We also asked to speak with a manager to address our concerns. The front desk employee assured us that a manager would call us back to follow up on the situation. Unfortunately, we never received any communication, nor was the matter resolved during our stay. Given the inconvenience, lack of basic room functionality, and the absence of any follow-up from your management, we find this experience far below the standards of service we expected. We kindly request a refund as compensation for the significant discomfort and poor customer service we encountered. We trust that you will take this matter seriously and address it promptly. We look forward to hearing from you.
