Awesome staff!
The hotel is quite dated and a little noisy during busy transition times. Bedding was ok. For this hotel it is the wonderful staff that make the difference. Carly greats you with joy and friendliness upon arrival and end ensures you have everything. Felicia hoes anove and beyond to make sure you start the day off right. The most amazing genuinely happy and friendly staff I have ever encountered. If the rooms were not so dated, It would have been 5 stars.

Convenient downtown location
The hotel was generally fine, but in need of some upgrading in my opinion. Pool area old looking too. Device great and friendly. Price kind of high but very convenient in center city location.

Clean with great customer service.
The room was great. The kitchen area had a sink, microwave, and refrigerator. The breakfast was good. The muffins and potatoes were delicious. The only negative was that the shower was stuck on massage mode and only one section of it worked. In their defense, I didn't contact anyone about it. It wasn't a painful massage setting. My boyfriend and I will definitely stay there again.

Perfectly situation in downtown Schenectady, ideal to visit the historical district and the local shopping scene. All the while being a hop and a skip away from the Amtrak station.

Good location for restaurants and shops. One downfall for the room was no place to hang up clothes. Didn’t notice this at first until I seen a do not hang sign near the sprinkler system in room. So someone probably did this. You would think that would make you realize that this needs to be addressed. Staff was courteous and the breakfast staff were awesome. Would stay again

Front desk Staff was nice and polite . Ms Felicia in the breakfast area was very friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean. The only issue with our stay was the house keeper attempting to enter the room at 10am. When he had an 11am check out

Smokey smell to room
The room had a smokey smell, woke up with achy sinuses from it, could smell on clothes when we got home.and no matter how low I set room temperature it was warm overnight. Breakfast was decent for a Hampton Inn. Lots of towels, floor nice and quiet
