This hotel has a very serious mouse problem. If you go there everyone will act surprised when you say you saw a mouse, but they've known for a long time they have this problem. They will not refund your money, I promise you this. They will see this review and they will say this is abnormal, but it's not. They will argue with you for hours about why you are wrong instead of just giving you your money back. And I stayed in three different rooms, the last one being the upgraded room they sent me to after my complaints, and in each room the toilet seat was near falling off. The third room didn'

Room was small but well kept. Lights are either on or off. There was no bedside or reading lamp. Closet in the room I stayed in was not available to me. Good location and walkable.

I selected the Albany because of location to the bus station as I was doing alot of tours and this hotel didn't disappoint. It is a 10 minute walk to Prince Street and all the main attractions... but without the crowd and noise. It was a very quiet location, very safe (I was by myself). The room was HUGE.
