Had to scramble to find new accommodations. No one called or emailed to tell us hotel had closed. Ridiculous. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Liviu-Lee, Ardmore, PA Jan 19, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lack of courtesy We made a reservation in October 2017 and nobody told us that the hotel has been closed. After driving for five hours, we found out, late at night, on a freezing winter day, that there is no place for us to stay. Thanks to the wonderful staff from Orbitz, we were able to get a room at the nearby Hampton Inn. ##### Liviu-Lee Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Karen Dec 27, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Unfortunately this hotel closed last month and I was not notified. I actually received a confirmation of my reservation a few days before my intended stay - when I arrived for my stay on Christmas night I learned that the hotel had closed. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Dec 8, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ferme Hôtel fermé et placardé Rendu sur place pour rien Expedia à trouver un nouvel hôtel pour nous ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### TJ, North Georgia Nov 20, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice location Good location, continental breakfast included in price.

As a Travel Agent who has stayed in hotels from 3 Stars to 5 Stars I've never had a stay as unviting as this hotel. I was part of a group so we booked about 5-6 rooms. To start, the card the get into our rooms didn't work, the maintence guy had to escort us to our rooms and let us in manually, the entire just had a gloomy setting, there were no wash clothes in the rooms, we were told there were no clean ones so we had to call the second day to get some. Venting machines weren't working, hotel shuttle wasn't working so we had to keep calling ubers. BreKfast was just done wrapped sandwiches which I passed on. We were told there was an issue with the kitchen. Lobby and breakfast area was cold...no heat ##### Michelle Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Yuriy Nov 19, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service My stay was ok, though I was constantly harassed by little flies in my room. I killed about 15 of them for my 3 day stay. I do not know where they were coming from. Otherwise this hotel is ok, pretty quiet and close to interstate highway. ##### Yuriy Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### SP, New York Nov 19, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Don't stay here When I arrived at the first room that I was given I was surprised to find the door ajar. When I went in the lights were on, the bed was rumpled and the toilet was running as if someone had just flushed and exited the room. I went back to the front desk and alerted them and was assigned a new room. In the new room, the fitted sheet did not seem to fit and was raised up on one side. Strings were hanging out of the mattress and the fabric covering on the side of the mattress appeared loose. As I pulled on it I discovered that it was not sewn down or secured to the mattress at all and that the springs of the mattress were visible and protruding. When I went to shower in the morning I found that the shampoo bottle was only half full, as if I had been given the left overs from another patron. ##### SP Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Leslie Nov 18, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Find another hotel Not well maintained, not clean. Carpet was torn, rooms extremely small, no exhaust fan in bathroom. On site bar/restaurant closed, yet still shows on website. Just not a nice hotel. ##### Leslie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### karen Nov 15, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### Was expecting better for BW. Was expecting better.... I booked this BW primarily for the indoor pool and location. Indoor pool was out of service. Had no view from the window in my room. Window blocked most the way up and had little natural light. Did not get our wake up call the next day. Requested a quiet room away from noise and traffic....got a room with loud humming in the morning. Not sure what that was. Did not feel like a BW brand to me. Disappointed. Would go with a cheaper hotel next time. ##### karen Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Becc, NY Nov 13, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Nice place to stay Very friendly staff and accommodating.

Advertised pool but when we arrived pool was closed for the two days we were there. Pictures show clean and nice looking hotel. The hotel is dingy. Went to take showers and there werent any wash cloths. They brought us the floor mat cloths and said "we are really f-ing up" Didn't stay the 2nd day. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Nov 12, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Property has been sold and is closing.

Makeup was on the bed sheets & the bathroom sink was loose. ##### Darlene Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dave, New Hampshire Nov 6, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Close to Cityline Grill.

The pool is older but clean. The shower had plenty of hot water. ##### Dave Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eileen Nov 6, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent service received et on Linda at front conter. ##### Eileen Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Oct 27, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hotel building was in a poor maintenance, bathroom was unclean when we got there found trash on the floor and towels were missing ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Oct 26, 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort frequently stay here, however on this particular visit the room did not feel clean. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nancy, Washington state Oct 26, 2017 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Not as nice as it used to be I visit Albany twice a year and have stayed at this hotel several times in the past. I have always found it comfortable and convenient, but my most recent stay was disappointing. The WiFi did not always work. I stayed there seven nights, and the housekeepers did not seem to come every day, not even to empty the trash. Twice I had to call the front desk for basics like toilet paper, tissues, and a wash cloth. Also, the breakfast was better in the past, but this time there were no eggs or hot food. The coffee was good, though. I have always liked the convenient location of this hotel - close to the interstate, stores, and restaurants - but I think I will look for a different hotel for my next stay. ##### Nancy Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sleep Inn & Suites Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Sleep-Inn-Suites-Buffalo-Airport.h85007.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Buffalo-Airport.h1348597.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Buffalo-Airport / Galleria Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Buffalo-Airport-Galleria-Mall.h13658.Hotel-Information) > > [Southampton Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Southampton-Hotels-Southampton-Inn.h117135.Hotel-Information) > > [Home2 Suites by Hilton Amherst Buffalo](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Home2-Suites-By-Hilton-Amherst-Buffalo.h34293145.Hotel-Information) > > [Hope Lake Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Ithaca-Hotels-Hope-Lake-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h3594548.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn & Suites Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-Buffalo-Airport.h6385880.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express and Suites Albany Airport- Wolf Road by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Albany-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-And-Suites-Albany-Airport-Wolf-Road.h5705.Hotel-Information) > > [Reikart House, Buffalo, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Reikart-House.h39605.Hotel-Information) > > [Buffalo Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Buffalo-Airport-Hotel.h26001.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites.h5678.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Buffalo - Amherst, NY](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Buffalo-Amherst.h50706489.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Buffalo - Amherst](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Buffalo-Amherst.h2914.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Cheektowaga North East by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Cheektowaga-North-East.h8130557.Hotel-Information) > > [Aloft Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Aloft-Buffalo-Airport.h9277828.Hotel-Information) > > [Home2 Suites by Hilton Buffalo Airport / Galleria Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Home2-Suites-By-Hilton-Buffalo-Airport-Galleria-Mall.h10627666.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Albany Wolf Rd-Colonie Center by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Albany-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Albany-Wolf-Rd-Colonie-Center.h8507161.Hotel-Information) > > [Tru By Hilton Albany Crossgates Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Albany-Hotels-Tru-By-Hilton-Albany-Crossgates-Mall.h26946845.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Inn Near Walden Galleria Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Quality-Inn-Near-Walden-Galleria-Mall.h558591.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Buffalo-Amherst by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Buffalo-Amherst.h6325554.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Buffalo Amherst](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-La-Quinta-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Buffalo-Amherst.h24723591.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Buffalo South I-90, NY](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h5313625.Hotel-Information) > > [Tru By Hilton Syracuse North Airport Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Syracuse-Hotels-Tru-By-Hilton-Syracuse-North-Airport-Area.h23160690.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Liverpool/Syracuse North Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Syracuse-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-LiverpoolSyracuse-North-Airport.h66620.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Courtyard-Buffalo-Airport.h4395444.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Galleria Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Galleria-Inn-Suites.h23120.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Buffalo Galleria Mall](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Buffalo-Galleria-Mall.h906657.Hotel-Information) > > [M Hotel Buffalo](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Millennium-Buffalo.h11231.Hotel-Information) > > [Buffalo Marriott Niagara](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Buffalo-Marriott-Niagara.h117.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Buffalo/Amherst](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-BuffaloAmherst.h9456445.Hotel-Information)
