I did like that when we booked separately they still put us all together and we were able to have three room that were all connected within. What I didn’t like was that my daughter’s room was dirty and the bathroom seemed gross! I didn’t like that the desk personal were not friendly and nice. We asked for transportation to go to a local restaurant a mile away and the shuttle was able to take us there, which was great, but there was miscommunication on the shuttle with the front desk as we had to seek out the driver ourselves as he stood there. The driver took us to the restaurant and told us he could they could come back and get us, but we might have to wait depending on if they’re doing other runs to the airport. It was time to leave the restaurant my daughter called. They said the shuttle would be a few minutes longer like 15 minutes we waited a half hour and called back due to the no-show of the shuttle. The lady then said the shuttle could not come and get us because we were out of range never called back to tell us that and even when she called never told us that. But the shuttle driver said it was in range. It was not even a mile away so we were left stranded at a restaurant that is now closed looking to find Ubers. Very disappointed we stayed with Hilton before and I will have second thoughts next time I book with them.

My recent stay at the Hilton Albany was average overall. While the hotel is conveniently located, the experience left something to be desired. I stayed on the 13th floor, and the room itself was basic nothing particularly noteworthy about the furnishings or amenities. Additionally, I noticed that the room was a bit drafty, which made it slightly uncomfortable, especially in the evenings. The breakfast options were also limited, which was disappointing considering the hotel’s reputation. I would have expected a more varied selection, especially for the price point. That said, the staff were polite and efficient during check-in and check-out, and the common areas were clean and well-maintained. While my stay was not unpleasant, I don’t feel it stood out as a memorable experience. If you’re looking for a convenient place to stay in Albany without high expectations, this hotel could work, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

Mysterious charges to my card
Everything was pretty good except for the fact that they don’t tell you until you get there that you have to pay for parking. So that made the $180 room $200. Then we got 2 gatorades charged to the room for $4 a pop and suddenly I’m being charged $226. Not sure why but this is the second time I was charged extra from a hotel. I leave the place clean nothing broken we were barely in the hotel to be honest. We stayed overnight and left early. Why was I charged extra money yet again?

Hilton: your brand is damaged.
There were no cups of glasses in the room. The woodwork is broken and scuffed as are the walls, there are tears in the upholstered chairs. There is mold in the tub and it does not drain; its still full of water. The hotel lobby is bleak, even desolate. The bar has all the appeal of East Berlin under communist rule.
