Great location to Rensselaer College and for the RPI East Campus Arena. Hotel exterior nicely kept, parking lot is well lit, check staff was friendly. Hotel is noisy though… in room fridge was violently vibrating when turning on and off, hallways are super loud as if you have your room door open to the crowds that run the halls at night, roadway traffic noise was loud, AC on and off was loud and the temp was so unregulated… spent the night with covers off dying of heat then covers on freezing to death. Would I stay here again? Ehh…as a last resort.
