Reviews for Cresthill Suites Albany

Review 1:No fans in the bathrooms.

Review 2:One bedroom suite was comfy like home. We booked the same room for 2 trips and enjoyed ourselves. The room had 2 tv's , full size refrigerator, stove & microwave. The staff was always kind and accommodating. Hot coffee etc always available & free breakfast.

Review 3:Highly dissatisfied with the staff at all levels. Very uncomfortable bed and pillows. Had stiff necks for all of us with very thick pillows. Even after complaint to the staff including emails (by my booking.com through which I booked the hotel) to general manager, they did nothing to help with this situation. Dirty and very old carpets in the room. Breakfast staff very discourteous ... Forget about the smile on the staff's face to greet you, the guy was rude and unhelpful.

Review 4:Well connected to highways and city center.

Review 5:I wish there was a frequent visitor program. It would be nice to save on visits without staying elsewhere.

Review 6:Super friendly staff! The rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast is great. (Could be extended a little later for sleeping in and still making it to breakfast.) Location "is great for visiting UAlbany! Being able to make a home cooked meal for my daughter in the room was great.

Review 7:The carpets were dirty in the hallways. The windows were dirty on the first floor. Our room had a slight odor.

Review 8:The breakfast was good. Hotel staff helpful.

Review 9:The romm was not cleaned the first night. We were left soap but the rest of the room was left, bed unmade, dishes in sink. Not a big deal.

Review 10:We have stayed there before. We love the convenience, that we have a full kitchen.

Review 11:AC rattled and had to be unplugged at night. Eggs at breakfast were cold, set out for hours without being heated and the oatmeal was little but starch.

Review 12:The location.

Review 13:2nd floor laundry had most of the machine nobs broken off. used the one on 1st floor and it was fine

Review 14:very well kept property comfortable and easy to get to. I would stay here again.

Review 15:I wasn't aware of the closet was damped until few days before my check out, the closet was moldy and my personal belongings were damaged. The management insisted that my stuff was wet before my check in. I stayed there for 21 days.

Review 16:Easy access to the highway.

Review 17:Cresthill was not aware of my request to bring our dog. There was an additional $100.00 fee, non-refundable. The WiFi signal was not strong from my room, so I had to work from the lobby. The room key did not work for 2 out of the 3 days we were there.

Review 18:The woman who was on shift when I checked in tried to make the best out of a poor situation-- suprise pet fee, key not working to the room for 2 out of 3 days, WiFi not working from my room.

Review 19:The experience was good. But, the facilities are in need of upgrading. The hotel us doing so now, but for the expense of the room, it should have been done years sooner.

Review 20:Staff and location were great.

Review 21:The beds had urine stained and blood stained mattress pads (in two different rooms) which the staff did not apologize for (on both occasions). Socks and other things from previous visitors were found under the bed which clearly shows the staff isn't cleaning properly. We were in two different rooms and both rooms had tubs which were black (but turned whiter once we cleaned them). The mirror was splattered with something as well. The staff never apologized for any of these issues. There was also a horrible smell coming from the second rooms bathroom and in the hall) (rotten egg smell) which they claimed to not smell but later came up in the night and sprayed the hallway (which we saw them through the peephole). I would never stay here again and would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Review 22:front desk some staff there not informative sometimes even discourteous.

Review 23:cleaning staff outdoor staff all good night person man very unfriendly not very accommodating

Review 24:Feces on outside of toilet, bathtub exterior and smeared on tile floor. It took two requests to get the bathroom sanitized and cleaned.

Review 25:location was central to everything

Review 26:My only complaint is there isn't much within walking distance such as restaurants or entertainment. You definitely need a car here.

Review 27:I liked that the room was more like a condo than a hotel room. I had a full sized stove and refrigerator, dishes and silverware a huge comfortable king sized bed and very nice bathroom. There was a nice desk and chair to work on my computer and free wifi that actually worked and a pleasant living room area. I had two flat screens, one in the bedroom and one in the living room. There was a laundry room as well as complimentary breakfast every day plus a few days where dinner was served too. The parking is free with a huge lot. The place is kept immaculate and seconds away from the highway. I was very pleased with the service staff and they were all very pleasant and helpful.

Review 28:The room smelled like smoke even though it was a smoke free room! The pillows were tiny and uncomfortable. The bathroom was VERY, VERY , DIM ! Also, I am gluten free and they had nothing for me to eat.

Review 29:The location was perfect! The staff was lovely! Everyone was so nice and helpful!

Review 30:- Hair in shower - Toilet stopped up - Screw in my sons breakfast cereal - Breakfast was not very good & no juice 1st morning - Light fell on my sons head room had a chemical smell when we 1st checked in. - AC cover was falling of the unit - Pool was not open all weekend

Review 31:Liked having 2 separate bedrooms

Review 32:Not as clean as I thought it should be. Bed clean but overall needed better cleaning. Would like to have access to an ice machine but staff did bag ice for us. Have stayed here 3 times over the past 4 years and at not time was the pool open.

Review 33:Room comfortable and breakfast a nice perk

Review 34:Television difficult to operate. Two lights did not work. Ice maker did not work in freezer. No a/c in exercise room. No record of our reservation when we first arrived.

Review 35:Separate bedroom, small apartment like setting.

Review 36:An area of improvement is the Lighting, especially in the bathroom.

Review 37:Staff was very pleasant and accommodating to our needs. Free breakfast exceeded our expectations. Shower had great water pressure.

Review 38:The only thing I would say was that the swimming pool could have been a bit cleaner although it was mostly stuff blown into it. Room was a bit dated.

Review 39:Location. Facilities and shuttle bus was excellent and staff extremely friendly and helpful.

Review 40:Had everything I needed. Location reasonable distance from where I needed to go. Like the fact they had complimentary breakfast and as a bonus social hour which consisted of a small meal.

Review 41:Pool was closed. Carpets are dirty and worn. Kitchen cupboard was greasy where you open them. Ceiling in our room looked cracked and moldy... Otherwise it appeared clean.

Review 42:Room size was nice. Easy access in from the parking lot with several enterances. Breakfast was good and the lobby sitting area was nice.

Review 43:The thermostats are old and out-dated, need to be changed to digital. As a result, the temperature control in the room is difficult.

Review 44:Many hotels in Albany are very over-priced. This was a good option on short notice, and the facility is very nice. The rooms are big and spacious, really geared towards extended stays.

Review 45:it wa a short ride to Empire State Plaza.. The staff was always helpful, friendly & couteous. When our toilet was stop Ed up they were there to fix it promptly. When I asked for extra blankets & towels they gave them to me right away!

Review 46:When we were checking out, requested to extend the check-out time by an hour, which usually any hotel did that for us, but here we were declined???

Review 47:When we checked-in the room we requested was not available, so they upgraded us for free.

Review 48:The bathroom wasn't completely clean, the shower head is so, my 5'10" daughter had to stoop and my 6'4" son really had to kneel to get wet. The kitchen cabinet doors were grubby as were the controls on the stove. The beds were not very comfortable.

Review 49:Loved that the suite was very spacious, light and bright, bath large, and the TV had a remote made specifically for it that functioned well. Loved the On Demand feature and access to ALL HBO stations. Also, desk personnel were wonderful and gave us a great lead for dinner, Delmonico's.

Review 50:No bad experience, but would like to have more glasses and silverware in the kitchen.

Review 51:Staff was great. We wanted a DVD player in the room and they brought one right up.

Review 52:The printer didn't work. It was out of ink for over a week. There are no cooking oven pans. We only received maid service one day during the 5 day stay. They didn't give us any new towels when they did clean the room so we had to go downstairs to get towels to shower

Review 53:Having the kitchen

Review 54:The hair dryer was not properly attached to the wall, and the smoke detector in the bedroom had been covered with a plastic bag by a previous guest. These are things housekeeping should have taken care of when the room was cleaned after the previous guest.

Review 55:The kitchen was not designed well. The dishwasher slammed into the counter. I don't like fluorescent lights in the kitchen. The smoke alarm was an eye sore. The curtains fell off the bar when closing the windows. I am used to a bit more luxury and will probably not return here.

Review 56:The bed and bath was fine.

Review 57:i loved everything there

Review 58:i loved that the room was so huge!!! and the full on kitchen which i didn't use lg. refrig. clean room pretty furnitures love that the windows was easy to open to let cool fresh air in.

Review 59:The maids didn't clean. They would take your towels and not leave any more. The printer didn't work in the business center. Breakfast food was cold average

Review 60:The front desk and the breakfast lady were very nice

Review 61:I look d under the bed because I dropped my glasses there was an empty gateraid bottle and dirty wrappers which means no one vacuum. That is gross. I hope my sheets were changed. I question that. Only 2 towels were in my room

Review 62:Close to highway but didn't bother me much. The babies slept fine but if you are bothered by traffic noise request a room non adjacent to thruway I guess

Review 63:Nice set up with kitchen area. Bed was nice.

Review 64:I liked the two bedroom suite! My husband and I had our own room and bathroom and the kids had there own queen beds and bathroom! They also have a nice breakfast from 6-9!

Review 65:The noise level in our room was very high. We faced a major roadway and had lots of road traffic noise coming from outside. Additionally, our heater would scrape and grind so loudly that we actually resorted to unplugging it during the night. Despite this, we were still able to get a good night's sleep after unplugging the heater. No further complaints.

Review 66:The room was the perfect size and the kitchen came with all necessary utensils. The staff was professional and courteous. Breakfast was included and had a good variety of options. The pricing is reasonable and arguably the best deal in the area.

Review 67:The eggs were not so good.

Review 68:I loved the waffles at the free breakfast. I loved our king size bed :) kitchenette was clean and room service was great when we wanted them

Review 69:The top section of the cabinet the TV sits on needs to be discarded. When you swivel the TV towards the sofa, it blocks reception for the remote. The cabinet partially blocks your view from both the bed and sofa viewpoints.

Review 70:Clean, modern, and spacious rooms. Excellent complimentary breakfast. Breakfast/dining room manager during our stay was a 10/10 (friendly, helpful, pro-active). We were surprised to find out it was only her second day on the job!

Review 71:A "meet the manager" session would be an upgrade.

Review 72:Everything was to my expectations. The room was large, the continental breakfast was robust, and the staff was friendly.

Review 73:Breakfast was hot and free, which was great, however i was not very impressed with the quality. The breakfast was exactly the same both days and was hoping for some variety.

Review 74:It is in a convenient location to the surrounding area. The rooms are nice and accommodating. My expectations were met fully. Will definitely go again if in the area.

Review 75:The accommodations are very spacious and comfortable. If you want to prepare something to eat the kitchen area was equipped with all the necessary items. In the morning the continental breakfast had a good variety of items and was constantly being tended to.

Review 76:The housekeeping supervisor was too pushy in getting me to accommodate her cleaning schedule. Parking was not easy to find on a snowy day. The $ 100 pet fee was unexpected and was disguised as a " non-refundable deposit". The convenience store was misrepresented.

Review 77:The facility is near SUNY and the government offices. The suite was cleaned and comfortable. The free breakfast provided a happy start for the winter day. The common areas were attractive and well maintained.

Review 78:I found an used condom behind the TV furniture and a sock below the bed in the room 331.

Review 79:I like the kitchen facilities, the free wi-fi and the space of the room.

Review 80:Perhaps a little out of the way if you do not have a car

Review 81:Quick check in. Helpful staff, shuttle, snacks in the evening, lovely hard working lady in the dining area

Review 82:room, dark, seedy, un kept no feeling of crispness as we entered our rooms, bedspread old, colors were not inviting, amenities were bush,

Review 83:location and convenience to malls ,gas, shopping

Review 84:The elevator is really slow. That's it.

Review 85:All we could ask for in a hotel. We love staying there and really enjoy the staff. Very friendly, rooms are so neat and clean.

Review 86:toaster broken, very few utensils, but enough for 2 people. when asked about rates for parents of SUNY, received two completely different answers. Breakfast not impressive. very bare and no one to wipe tables, restock items. no eggs/french tst..only overcooked pancakes. Tea water tastes like coffee.(they need to use separate urns to avoid that)

Review 87:the suite was large and comfortable. location very convenient for our needs. beds comfy and room quiet. check out time was noon. shower was great.

Review 88:When we were checking out my wife noticed a sign which read,people under 21 could not check in to this motel. When she inquired about this to the young man at the desk he said," That's correct. Children are not welcome but dogs are. Children can sometimes get out of hand." I'm disappointed to know I cannot bring my 6 year old grandson but I can take my Pittbull. Guess this will be my last visit to your establishment.

Review 89:Nothing negative to report!

Review 90:The apartment was comfortable and well-supplied, attractive and adequate. The social hour provided excellent 'snacks' and beer, while the breakfast in the morning was good.

Review 91:Nothing! It was great.

Review 92:This place is wonderful, incredibly clean, comfortable, well-appointed and with a friendly staff. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here while visiting Albany, and hope I can stay again when returning to the area. I had a large room, kitchenette, great beds and bathroom! Donna, at the front desk was helpful and friendly. The breakfast provided was simple but fine for me.You can't go wrong in this nice hotel!

Review 93:Wonderful and clean . Had 2 bedrooms, a kitchenette and a living. An extremely good deal. They had some problems with their Wifi - connection but when working it was fast.

Review 94:Cable TV not working. No ice in refrigerator or hallways. Had to go to front desk for bag of ice.

Review 95:Good location. Easy access to highways and plenty of restaurants nearby.

Review 96:Booking.com did not informed the hotel that my stay was for 2 days. Therefore my room was not clean the second day and we had to get new cards as we were locked out of the room.

Review 97:The location was excellent. They had a swimming pool which my granddaughter enjoyed.

Review 98:Need more pots to cook a full meal, but we managed. Only four of everything e.g. plates, cutlery, but all very clean.

Review 99:Two bedroom, two bathroom suite with excellent layout, in a great location. After a long day travelling, it was convenient to cook after buying ingredients at a nearby Super Walmart. Nice amenities in bathrooms. Ample free parking.

Review 100:I have to pay a full day for a couple of extra hours that I stayed there. They put me in a room that you hear traffic all night long on the highway. The service at the front desk was a bit snippy.

Review 101:The A/C unit was leaking onto the floor.

Review 102:Rooms were large and comfortable. The staff was attentive and very responsive. The wifi was good. The continental breakfast was not great, but adequate. A similar quality dinner on weekdays was nice. Don't expect luxury, but if you're looking for value and comfort this place can't be beat.

Review 103:The bedding (especially comforter) felt like a low quality or has been there for a long time. The pillows were not in great shape either. They would do well to replace all of their bedding to something newer/higher quality.

Review 104:The staff was very helpful and courteous. There was plenty of space in the suite and having a full kitchen was very convenient. Great place for a family on a budget.

Review 105:Our room seemed a bit dusty and a little pet hair around. Did not like hallways that were not air conditioned. Musty smell when not properly ventilated. Inside elevator too noisy and a little slow for only three floors.

Review 106:Our room was very spacious. It is very convenient for us to visit the university. We also liked the light dinner in the lobby. Salmon was excellent. We would definetely consider staying at Cresthill in the future.

Review 107:The front desk staff were not at the front desk any time during my stay. You had to get their attention. Also were not very friendly or attentive.

Review 108:I liked the location to the Mall and SUNY Albany. The morning breakfast and evening social were great. It was clean and comfortable and felt like home.

Review 109:Breakfast buffet is not stocked to last through the scheduled hours. Have experienced this multiple times.

Review 110:Difficult to adjust heating.

Review 111:Quiet room despite the fact it was on highway side!

Review 112:everything its a home away from home. everything you need is there even washer & dryer if you need it.
