“Convenient”

The location was great for my event. This is a modest independent hotel at a very modest price. Putting that all into perspective, I was happy with my 2-day stay. The area is safe and the hotel was clean. The icemakers were out of order (just like last year), but it was available from the front desk.

“Good hotel for a small college town”

They are trying to update the hotel, which is good.

“Albion is a nice restful town for a weekend retreat.”

Visit Tractor Supply Company, Cascarelli's and the big park. You won't feel bored or rushed in Albion.

“Better than what the reviews tell you - Call a head about the club noise”

I have stayed here years ago and after staying at other places within the same budget range in the area, this one is one of the better ones. There are alot of bad reviews out there on this hotel. If you are looking for a place to stay that's cheap, clean, and gives you breakfast, this place isn't bad. When we arrived it was later in the evening and the front desk employee (Josh) was professional and accomodating. I asked him about the club and if it was going to be a loud weekend. They rent it out and it can get loud so you will want to ask a head of time or request a room futher away from the front of the hotel. He said it wasn't rented out except for a wedding reception who had been warned about keeping the noise to a resonable level. He also put us in a room futher away. We had no complaints of the noise level. They were all out of cots (bummer since we had 3 adults and 2 children). Josh was pleasant about it and offered to bring extra pillows and blankets to the room. He brought the fluffiest bedding, better than what was on the beds! We went to the closest store and bought a cheap inflatable pool raft and it worked out fine. The room had a fridge but no microwave. The contental breakfast was typical: Cereals, waffles, assorted breads, muffins, and yogurt. We stayed for two nights and are returning for another weekend later this summer. Also the pool is fine. This was so much better than the Baymont in Battlecreek, where I stayed last year.

“fdhyj5yuk”

This is the best hotel in Albion. The staff was great.

“mixed”

The girl at the front desk was very sweet and the accommodations were very simple. The hallways didn't look like they had been vaccumed for over a week. The bed was comfortable and clean. the shower had a weak flow. But plenty of towels and hot water.

“Not As Pictured”

Albion Inn was "not as pictured". Carpeting in hallways, rooms, lobby was dark and appeared dirty. Beds in the room were not the best. Drapes, bedspreads, carpet all different patterns. Crumbs of some kind on one of the beds on check-in. Remote had to be left at front desk on checkout - never did work. A bloody kleenex was scattered down the hall. Saturday night (9/17/11) on returning to our room, we found it was "karaoke night" - loud music, people slammming doors around midnight, lots of talking in the parking lot. Told the staff about the remote, bed, some other issues. Comment was, "I'm really sorry". We won't be returning.

“Worse than expected--and I wasn't expecting much”

Very uncomfortable bed. There was a large party going on at the hotel that was very noisy. There were unsupervised children who weren't hotel guests in the pool. The hallways smelled like smoke. Surfaces in the room were very dusty. The toilet seat was very loose and I almost fell. The continental breakfast was awful.

“Disappointed!”

So disappointed! The hotel was recently bankrupt and new owners have it but not much done to fix it up yet.

“Don't stay here, it totlaly sucks!”

The first weekend, the staff at check in did not know how to pull up, our information confirming that we paid through Expedia, and luckily enough, a manager was available to straighten it out, unluckily enough for us, the problem was not solved on this last weekend. The front end staff, had no idea what so ever, how to find the Expedia info, we had to pay for the rooms again, and hope that they have been able to get it straightened out after the fact! I had also hoped that the cleaning staff was just having an off day, when we found that our bathroom was grungy dirty, and there was almost no toilet paper, much to our dismay, the cleaning staff just does a rotten job, and the place was filthy, from the lobby to the bath tub! The hotel common areas were appallingly hot, as we found out that the previous owners had removed the air conditioning unit for the main part of the hotel, the ice machines are either broken, or missing all together. I can not fully express, our disappointment and to be honest out right disgust that a hotel, even in the budget range can have the audacity to charge what they do for the contempt they must hold their patrons. Actions are louder than words, the staff apologized about the situation, we did not want apologies, just a decent room at a reasonable price. The only bright spot was the young lady that was on duty at the front desk on the morning of 5/31/2010, I never got her name, but she at least had the decency to be embarrassed by the situation.
