I was in Albany for a work trip and decided to pick this hotel because it was close to where I needed to be for work and I got a good price through the United website. I typically choose Hampton Inns for my work trips but figured I would give this hotel a shot. The hotel itself is in a... More

Stayed here for two weeks. Its just off Interstate so if you are traveling out of Albany its a good location. But other than Dunkin donuts there is pretty much nothing around. You have to drive about 4-5 miles for anything that you would need! The place is decent and recently the prices have increased quite sharply! One thing that... More

I had reserved one room on a recent trip to Albany, but ended up needing an additional room for our two daughters. No problem, the desk clerk working the early evening shift on 3/21 went out of his way to be helpful. He placed us near each other and made us feel welcome and actually gave us a better rate... More

We were comfortable at this hotel. It wasn't spotless but it wasn't dirty either. The rooms were decent and they accommodated us with any special requests. When we couldn't get into our room due to the key card devise not working they were very nice and relatively quick to remedy the situation. The pool is kept surprisingly clean as well.... More

I feel very badly writing a poor review, and indeed rarely do so. I am hoping this is just a one-off experience at this hotel: But our recent stay at the Fairfield Inn was most disappointing. It is a drab, dirty property in need of urgent refurbishment. First the good points: all the staff were very friendly, from Matt who... More

Pretty average motel Fairfield Inn, nothing special, but nice comfortable bed and room. Breakfast adequate, pool looked clean, hot tub not operational (looks like has been out of service for a while. We did get a very good rate on Priceline, so it was worth the stay for an overnight sleep/stay. Would stay there again.

The hotel is right across a street from SUNY (as are a few other hotels on Washington Avenue). It appears to be fairly new and is quite fine for a short stay in the area. It has a very small work out room, but SUNY has a 5k track around it's perimeter that makes a great run. The hotel is... More

Took at shot at Priceline's "Name Your Own Price" and was pleasantly surprised to get booked at the Fairfield Inn SUNY. From check-in to check-out our stay there was very relaxing and enjoyable.
