I would like to give this apartment a higher rating, but the check-in instructions were incomplete, and I was unable to enter it for the first night of my stay. The host was unavailable to correct the problem. VRBO had to put me up a local hotel instead. Luckily something was available for the night within a few blocks of the apartment. It was inconvenient, but could have been much worse.The apartment itself was clean, comfortable and conveniently located. I enjoyed the remaining two nights of my stay once I received the correct instructions for entering into it.The lack of a dedicated parking space is a concern. I didn't have trouble finding on-street parking nearby, but it could be a problem.The location is a typical urban neighborhood. Not especially attractive (at least, not to me) but I didn't feel unsafe. It's a 15-minute walk to a supermarket, and most of the capitol buildings are also within that distance.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was wonderful to have our own space to escape to when my parents got to be too much. The space is nicely decorated. The rooms are spacious. The ceilings are high and there are plenty of windows for light. The bathroom is beautiful. We really enjoyed being able to walk everywhere. We ate at Cafe Capriccio. We visited the Corning Tower, the restaurants and bars on Lark Street, and the Spectrum Theater.We did have some issues with the Wifi. It was out for several hours twice during our stay. The main router is in another unit and both times we had to wait for the host to get in touch with the other unit tenant to reset it.We also had major issues with the lock on the unit door. The lock is super fiddly and the other tenants had to help us get in on a few occasions. I don’t believe we were given the coorect combo for the front door, but again one of the tenants said that she had stayed in our unit before and told us what it should be.It was a very convenient place for us to stay while caring for my parents.

Convenient and Comfortable

Overall we enjoyed our stay. Street parking was easy to find. We had some issues with cigarette smoke from the restaurant downstairs coming into the apartment the first night of our stay. We notified the host who was very accommodating. She investigated the issue for us and even offered us alternate accommodations if necessary. After the host spoke with the restaurant we had no further issues smoke. It was a well-appointed unit with a very convenient location.

Good for short stay

Convenient location (a little scary), but no parking available. Street parking was hit or miss. The condo was small & couch was a bit uncomfortable. No oven and no extra blankets, towels, or pillows. Location was quiet considering there was a meadery & tasting room next door.

great space, across the st from the arena! just don't expect the host to respond

the apartment was super cute and could not have been closer to the arena! loved the space. full kitchen and just a quick walk to the venue. easy self check in process. bathroom could have been cleaner - there were small hairs on the walls of the shower and bathroom floor that i really would have preferred to have not been there - i had to clean the bathroom myself before i considered it sterile enough for my use. did not bother to complain about that to vrbo though because i had a bigger issue of the wifi not working my last day there and the host being competely unresponsive! the tv allows you to sign into your own streaming plans but without wifi i had to use my cell phone as a hot spot and log into the tv that way just to sign myself out after hours of trying to contact the host to no avail. in the end, the host told vrbo support that they were unavailable until after 5pm and i was supposed to check out by 11am that day. it's a shame the host failed to do their job, as the place was otherwise great. also should be noted that the front stoop is adjacent to the living room window, and you can hear all the other guests coming and going.

Stay in Albany, we left early !

We are from Scotland and were on a road trip in New England, staying an Albany and viewing the sites. The property was Ok to stay in but our problem was the area the property is in. It is next to the Mansion Area (google that) and you will find it is one of the worst areas in Albany. One block down from this apartment is a no go area after dark, not much better during daylight hours. I am amazed that none of the reviews on Vrbo mention this, guess I know why ? Even the house book "suggests" getting an Uber even for short distances. As per review we left a day early. I have been traveling to the US at least annually for over 35 years and have stayed in many Vrbo homes since they started and this is the only property where we have not like the area and left early. I will never return to this area if I am ever back in Albany.

Great place to stay and very easy to get to and access.

We went to Albany for a concert and had a 4 minute walk from our door. Couldn’t get any better. Only issue was the steps were icy but to be fair they did have a storm roughly 24 hours prior to our arrival so I understand things happen. Besides that would give a 6 out of 5 for our stay.

HS Wrestling State Championship 2024 at MVP Arena

Perfect spot for our stay while watching the HS Wrestling State Championships. The convenience to the Arena was phenomenal, we were able to stay parked by the property and walk each day avoiding the crowds and traffic. Was able to take break from watching and head back to relax which was a bonus for my husband who was coaching and needed a break from the hustle and bustle of the hotel with all the wrestling kids and coaches. Ideal location for what we need when attending this event, hope to use it again in the future. Thanks again for a great stay!

Needs More Accuracy

Overall, it was a nice and clean apartment. However the online listing said it had two beds and sleeps 3. A couch is not a bed and there were not linens for it. This apartment sleeps 2. There was an odor of marijuana in the building and it is located above a bar. The bar noise was not an issue - but something that should be noted.

Home Away from Home!

I am always excited to come back home to Albany to spend time with family! This unit was WONDERFUL! It’s in the heart of Albany; a walk away from the Empire Plaza and more! I stayed there with a family member and my 21month old child-spaciousness enough for her to be comfortable ! This unit is Bright!, Clean!, and Simple! The price of the unit was key to my budget and so worth every dollar! No hassle with location and found parking every time I returned from driving around! Communication with the hostess was great! This is a definite “stay again” when I come back to Albany! Thank you so much!
