Mcquade park

The hotel is located next to the greyhound bus station and several abandoned buildings. , but it’s easily accessible from the highway.

My stay: Fri Aug 14 -Sun Aug 16, 2026. I was there to visit relatives; other: I lived in anAlbany suburb from 1990 to 2023. The Hampton Downtown Albany is a decent stay but it's liability is being in "downtown Albany". Briefly, and unfortunately, the City of Albany now lacks a tax base to eg adequately maintain their streets or keep them lit after dark. Equally, due its very compacted urban population, there's a high incidence of encountering mentally unstable/verbally abusive individuals & aggressive panhandlers. Dollar for dollar, I would have stayed insteas - as Ive done before - at the Hampton in Latham NY - about 15 miles north of the downtown one. Identical services & quality of stay but eg without the additional $20 parking fee of the downtown location. The Latham location offers access to more mid range restaurants, retail stores, etc. Its plus is that it is in a safe & convenient suburb. The only reason I didn't stay again was that it was booked out likely due to the current Saratoga Race Track season. Bottom line: Stay outside of Albany proper.
