    No room was available when we attempted to checkin at 4:45pm. There was a list of people who were waiting for rooms to be ready. We were told that we would be called when room was ready. We had been hoping to have shower and bed available for my daughter between basketball games but had no place to go. Staff never called and we returned to check in at 8:30pm not knowing if we had a room or not. Room was ready but never commuicated to us.

    Staff didn’t show up to work the breakfast and no back up, so now breakfast. Then they didn’t even set up the coffee area, stating that there is no free coffee until 9 am, but did have a barista making coffees (very slowly) and charging for them, but this took over 30 minutes.

    I found my stay at this hotel good but not exceptional. Staff is very friendly rooms were very clean and well taken care of. A fairly modern renovation. When I went down to breakfast, there were a few TVs on a lot of ambient noise, which I didn’t appreciate. But all in all, it was a good place to stay for a short visit

    Hotel was nice, well kept, and clean which is obviously of the upmost importance. However it’s directly adjacent to I87 and the road noise is horrendous! Our room was the last room closest to I87 and I swear at times trucks were driving through the room. Had to keep the AC fan on constantly to help with drowning out some of the noise. I have to imagine that the noise affects other rooms. If you are light sleeper or have a hard time falling or staying asleep, do yourself a favor and consider not staying her. It’s unfortunate cause it is a nice hotel.

    After attempting to make coffee the 1st morning of a two day stay, I discovered the previous occupant had poured coffee into the water reserve which since had grown mold. That morning I requested at the front desk to have it replaced which they agreed to. Upon returning later that evening, it was not switched and again l made a request at the front desk for a replacement which would be sent up. No coffee maker arrived. The next morning I brought the coffee maker down and gave it to the front desk with no resolution or acknowledgment of the oversight, just offered some points “if” I had a Marriott account, and no offer to get coffee from their bistro. We will no be staying at this location again.

    Don’t stay here. This is an awful Marriott. We are in a room without a working television. First no remote. Then they brought a remote but the TV doesn’t work. I asked for a different room. The parking lot isn’t full and it’s near 11pm. She said she can’t move me because the empty room is a higher rate! I plan to protest my charge with Amex. Stay at another hotel in Clifton Park, NY. Marriott get your act together.

    This is an mostly excellent hotel and we will stay there again when we visit family in Half Moon. There were a couple issues though. We had room 105, which had an accessible shower. It was impossible to get the water as hot as I like it. Figuring out how to turn the handles to get it hot was unnecessarily difficult. Also, the key cards didn't work very well. I had to get 2 different new sets made on Sunday, just to be able to get into the fitness room, pool and then back into the room.

    Second year stopping at this property while driving from Fort Lauderdale to Montreal. We had a good welcoming check-in. We were disappointed to see the bathroom with a black caulking around the shower pan and addressed the situation to front desk who took note of it. Comparing with our experience to Fairfield Inn & Suites, Stony Creek, Emporia, we paid almost $50 more for the night for a smaller room and a disappointing looking bathroom.

(#334)It was quiet, but could hear some road noise but not bad. Coffee very good. The TV in the morning would not come in for some reason and weather was clear outside. I would probably stay here again but just make sure the door locks.

    It was fine for one night, I travel with my wife and we had a question the shower which had no door and left water all over the bathroom as well as the loud noises coming out of the wall by the headboard every time the room upstairs used water or toilet. But overall pretty good value. Mostly I would recommend as a stop over for a night during travel as it’s close to 87.

    The pool was closed, which they would have told us during booking as we had our child with us and we specifically booked a propert with a pool. Our shower was dirty, still has used soaps and shampoos in it from the prior guest and they gave us one towel for our party of 3…

    The door to the room took a pretty hard shove to open and close. The shower amenities were disappointing, but this is true to almost any hotel in the last two years. It was definitely not the cleanest hotel room I've been in lately. The food offering in the restaurant/lounge was extremely limited. The service at the bar was great though.
