When I made the reservation, I was asked to pay for parking for myself and my guest. Thankfully, I declined because it wasn't even necessary. I saved myself $40. I was scared walking on the street from the parking garage to the hotel alone at night. There was no attendant and signs were unclear for the elevator. I lugged my suitcase down 5 flights of stairs. When I finally made it to my room it was 76 degrees and the AC was not working well. I was drenched in sweat while preparing to meet someone special. We were given a fan, which at least made the room more comfortable. The breakfast buffet in the morning was good and the ambiance was nice. The bar area was cozy and comfortable.

I often felt unsafe at this property. People hanging out in the parking garage, loud yelling and screaming in halls all night. Property is not well kept. Needs an entire update. Wouldn’t recommend at all.

I have stayed at other Hiltons. If you want the Hilton experience, Do Not stay here! Upon walking in the room, there are No light switches on the walls. You have to go to the bed to put the lights on. The ceilings are cracked and peeling. Bathroom is 2x4 and has no vent or AC. The Bathtub is so slanted inside its a task standing in it to take a shower The fridge makes a loud noise which kept me up. The heating/AC controls are old and in Celsius. You are either hot or freezing! Of course its downtown Albany which is not great at night so the main doors are roped off 24/7 which makes it harder bringing all your belongings inside the hotel. The first evening a homeless man walked in the hotel asking everyone for money!(sad)
 The whole ceiling in the room was like this!

Overall, our stay was just average. Check-in was quick and smooth, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. However, booking through a third party left us a bit surprised with the room options. We had booked a standard single King-size bed through Expedia, but when we checked in, we were informed by Hilton staff that due to a third-party booking, they only had rooms with two queen-size beds. They explained that they prioritize guests who book directly with Hilton. While the room downgrade was disappointing, we tried to overlook it. The facility itself was clean, but one of the two queen-sized beds in our room had stained sheets. Thankfully, we had two beds to choose from, so we opted for the clean one. The bathroom was okay, but it definitely needed some minor updates. There was a warped toilet seat, an odd-shaped tub, and I even found a bug crawling on the bathroom vanity. The vanity top looked as if it hadn’t been cleaned well either. On a different note, we were given a room with a door that connects to the room next door. While this wasn’t a major issue since the door locks and has another safety mechanism, it seemed to be paper-thin. All night, I could hear the people next door playing music and having sex, which was quite disruptive. I had hoped to sleep in silence, but I had to turn up the volume on the TV to drown out the noise. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend staying at this hotel again.
