Red Carpet Inn Albany

Very Poor
Traveller Type:
  : Drug deals, weird people around your vehicles, was so scary we left, our show was canceled we weren't in the room 3 hours, no kind of reimbursement

Fair
Traveller Type:
  : The price was good and the location was good
  : The room smelled like rotten meat when we walked in. There were cigarette burns all over the room. The ac worked great but it was so loud. When we were pulling in the coroner was there taking a body out of the room 6 doors down from us. The people 3 rooms down from us were smoking crack. The room around the corner from us was selling drugs.

Very Poor
Traveller Type:
  : The morning staff gave us back our money for one of two rooms when we explained the various problems of the hotel and why our experience sucked.
  : - Weird, scary people hanging around all night, the hotel is in a shady part of town- We rented two rooms. They were both disgusting. One of them had enormous marks of mold on the ceiling, the other had spider webs, dust, red marks (lipstick ? Blood ?) on the bedsheet, and a mark on the door to the bathroom : someone must have punched it or tried to break it. I've never seen this before. - In one of the rooms, there was a horrible smell of marijuana, so much so it was impossible to sleep there. In the morning, staff told us all the rooms were connected through the air vents in the bathrooms, meaning you can smell drugs if other tenants smoke them (and they do)- The A/C didn't work in one of the rooms. The shower curtain was disgusting in one of the rooms and the handle on which it's fixed was broken.- Empty beer bottles left in front of the rooms, nobody picked them up or cleaned them.- Shortly after our arrival, we told the night clerck we couldn't sleep in one of the rooms because of the smell (and we didn't feel safe because of the other tenants). He was rude, didn't care and didn't offer any solution, he simply grunted we needed to speak to the manager in the morning.- Saw a man smoking probably crack in the laundry room when we left (definitely not cigarettes)Do NOT go there, especially if you have kids. This hotel needs to be transformed from the ground up : you won't feel safe, it's dirty, and it smells horribly.After all these negative coments from all travelers I dont even understand how booking.com can keep this terrible hotel online.

  : literally and absolutely NOTHING!
  : It was filthy and smelt terrible of smoke and other odor. There was hair in the bed and bathtub, there was no smoke detector, I had to call at 11pm and ask about the status. I was told to call back in the morning. I called back and was told again to call back, on the third time someone finally came and installed one for us. DO NOT stay here, even if you think your saving a few bucks.

Fair
Traveller Type:
  : The trees out front. theyre a variety that doesnt do well where Im from and these are impressive specimens
  : its pretty run down. Lots of drug users staying there. Needles and other drug detritus was there to be seen by anyone. The cleaning guy picked up most of it the next day.

Disappointing
Traveller Type: Family with Young Children
  : Confortable beds
  : Lack of security, street gangs in the hotel, drug dealers around the hotel and people looking insode the garbage. I felt a lot of fear with my girlfriend

Poor
Traveller Type: Business Traveler
  : Price and location
  : So many sketchy people around. Receptionist was very guarded, like I would try to cheat her out of paying for the room. Place was decent but fridge so loud I just unplugged it. Smelled slightly of smoke though a non smoking room

Disappointing
Traveller Type: Solo Traveler
  : Room was a decent size. Staff seemed decent.
  : It was a non-smoking room and I have never smoked. Yet the room stank of smoke to the extent that I had to wash clothes in my suitcase that I hadn't worn before wearing them again because of the smell of smoke.
