My wife and I stayed here when I went to meet my new in-laws after Melody and I got married. I give the location two stars because the manager was receptive to my concerns, as noted below. On the second night, a strong odor of marijuana was in the hallway of the hotel; the desk clerk had no idea and... More

I have stayed at the motel for two nights - unfortunately I realised on the second night that this place is full of bed bugs. I've got a bite and found a bed bug in bed. Management were not surprised and moreover - were was completely ignorant - after I informed them, they just said they would make a note.... More

Me and my wife stayed here in January 2012. She is HIGHLY allergic to INSECT BITES, and we woke up and found that she was bitten all over herself. We pulled back the bed sheets and it was INFESTED! Instead of giving me a full refund, they procedeed to give me a gift certificate, that I STILL have not used.... More

I would not recommend staying at this Motel 6 in Albany, New York. We arrived at the front desk and Myron, front desk agent, was snarly and snipey. There seems to be working girls and gang-bangers at this motel. Several women approached Myron while I was being checked in, and he said to them: "Not now honey. Go back to... More

We arrived at 22.45 and checked in inside the lobby with no problems. The Clerk didn't charge us the reservation price so there were a few issues trying to get a refund on the difference in price. The room was good and everything was clean. The only problem though, was the fact it was a non-smoking room and it reeked... More

After checking in at 10pm, we left by midnight. Should have known the place was questionable as to its safety and security as the "secure" door we were to enter thru was propped open by a chair and 2 men were hanging out drinking beer by the parking lot. Just needed a place to get some sleep on a long... More

I don't know if it was the abandoned construction lot next door, or the fact that after 10:00 PM you can't enter the lobby (you have to check-in through bullet proof glass outside), but this hotel gives off very bad vibes! There were many people standing around outside after dark and on several occasions cars would drive into the parking... More

When writing a review it’s important that you offer clear, accurate information. You want to help future travelers determine whether or not a certain property is right for them. Looking back on this Hotel, I don’t think its right for anyone. Located in a rather questionable area, combined with low lighting, this property, in desperate need of a complete overhaul,... More

After being treated poorly by the front desk clerk at the Red Roof Inn, I called this Motel 6 location and was able to reserve a room for a whopping $40 cheaper. (In general, this motel was $30-$40 cheaper than the others I called, no coupon needed either). Upon late arrival at Motel 6, we were greeted by courteous service,... More
