“This historic building blends old-world charm with modern upgrades, positioning itself as a practical base in Albany. I noted its proximity to both the Albany Convention Center and the Times Union Center-that's valuable. Despite some reports, the on-site restaurant seems a solid option if you're seeking high-end American fare.”
