Americas Best Value Inn Albany East Greenbush

First room checked in, there was evidence of roaches. They moved our room. we put the do not disturb, they came banging in the morning along with work being done above and surrounding us. woke up the next morning with bug bites all over us. No amenities, room smell of cigarettes even though it was a non smoking room. Room cleanliness was very poor like the only thing that was done was a change of linen between check ins. Day two.... checked someone into a room we were checked into they walked in while we were sleeping. Rude staff.

Not as advertised. Picked this place for a one night stop on a road trip, the pictures looked nice online the review stars weren't horrible. My mistake was not reading the negative reviews. First thing you notice when you get there is the parking lot is being used as a junkyard for furniture, tires nothing like the clean pictures they had online, this buildning may have been that one time but is no longer. Had already paid and wed be leaving first but still felt sketch. Second despite there being 4 rooms listed as available non smoking, king bed I was not given one of those rooms claiming "its all we had". Update your website. The sheets smelled so heavily of cigarettes and one of the beds had stains all over the sheets, first time in my life I felt like I had to check for bedbugs. The roo

Keeping in mind that this is a very inexpensive hotel, I really only care about three things. Is it clean, is it safe, and is it quiet. This checks all of those boxes. Yes, it’s very basic. Although some of the furniture is a little beat up, it felt completely clean, and there was no mold or dust (a common problem in this class of hotel). One warning is that the shower took a good 5-7 minutes to get warm. I just thought the hot water didn’t work and took a cold shower before realizing it just takes forever to warm up. The one minor complaint is that they use those annoying low flow showerheads that were popular 10 years ago, that don’t really work very well. Hey, for this price, I’ll take what I can get.

Room was quite damaged and had a gap under the door. Walls were damaged and scuffed. The shower was not working, there was only a top sheet on the bed and the cleaner hadn't even knocked when coming to clean. He just opened my door while I was still there before my checkout time.

When I was pulling in to the parking lot, I noticed the hotel is very outdated. There is scooters outside of my room that were not mine. I walked in the room and I hit a wall of unpleasant stenches. The stenches were including but not limited to marijuana and cigarettes. Upon walking in I realized that there was a BURN HOLE in one of the top blankets. In the other bed there was stains!!! When it got cold, the heat would NOT turn on! I was throwing garbage away in the room, and noticed a purple Trojan condom wrapper in the trash can. My family member later noticed a USED condom outside of our room door. Spend the extra $20 and stay somewhere nicer, do NOT stay here!
