I stayed one night in this horrible hotel on a business trip – absolutely terrible. I found hairs (HAIRS!!!) in the bed!! I gathered up all my items and went down to the front desk and demanded a new, CLEAN room. I was given a new room, and when I asked for reassurance that this new room would in fact... More

The management team emphatically addressed the issues with the sheets/blankets with both the housekeeping staff and the company we contract to clean our linen. Due to this incident, several changes have been made and as a precautionary measure, hairnets are now mandatory uniform wear for all housekeeping personnel while servicing rooms. As far as the stained furniture: Again our renovation... More

My title about sums it up. This place verges on seedy. The sign out front says the rooms have been upgraded but all I saw of improvements looks like it was done by A rank amateur. Paint splashed over existing fixtures instead of properly masked, gaps around outlet plates, the use of power strips, worn out furniture with stains in... More

We apologize for the "awful" experience. The management team here very much appreciates our customer feedback, good or bad. We are in the process of a complete rennovation. Currently the hotel is about 50% complete. The upgrade includes new paint, carpeting, mattresses, curtains, bedding and furniture. Unfortunatly, this guest was placed in a room that has not yet been modified.... More

I stayed at this hotel for 12 nights. Here are the pros: It was well-located in Schenectady as it was close to the small downtown area, Union College, Vale Park, and Schenectady Museum and Planetarium. The front desk staff was friendly. The breakfast bar had a good number of options and even asked if I wanted creamy or crunchy peanut... More

This hotel is under new management and customer service was an issue that was addressed as soon as the new owner was on board. We are working harder everyday to improve on that aspect of our business. Our customers our most important to us. The furniture, bedding, etc., is being replaced as part of our on-going rennovation project. More

This Days Inn seems to be in need of a renovation. Many of the mechanical featuers, such as the elevator and toilet, sounded as though they were working reluctantly. And in many areas the place did have odd odours and the room itself, while spacious, looked like it was decorated in the 1970s. That being said, it was, overall, an... More

We stayed here to attend a wedding nearby. The property accepted dogs. The room smelled of dog urine and smoke. I don't think the rug was ever cleaned thoroughly. The breakfast nook staff was having breakfast while we were so there was no one to attend to the guests for a while. If ever in this area again, I will... More
