Perfect stay for our family
Our family of four needed to travel to Albany area for a family event and we are not fans of hotel rooms. The Watervliet Retreat was a perfect stay for our family. Literally within 15 mins of everywhere we needed to be, 3 bedrooms (1 of the bedrooms is a very comfortable pull-out sofa) with extremely comfortable beds. Extremely clean and well-presented. A supermarket within a few mins walk as well proved very helpful. Lastly, despite it being on what looked like a busy streetfront, the house was incredibly quiet and we did not hear road noise at all. In reading the other reviews, I did not notice the air-con/heater being overly loud..just normal noise that even my own house makes. Markos was very responsive and friendly if we needed to contact him. Our family was able to spread out, each teen had their own room, and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you very much to Markos and this property for hosting us!

Short drive from downtown Troy
Perfect property for more than the average 2 people in a hotel room. Clean, quaint, adorable and a short few minutes drive from RPI. Area was safe with all the things we needed to make our stay comfortable. The host was easy to reach and very responsive and amenable.

Very nicely renovated older home and kept very clean. Couches and bed were comfortable. The AC unit is fairly loud but it worked well. The immediate area is a little rundown but it didn't really feel unsafe. Very close to Dunkin donuts and a grocery store (walking distance) and there are a good amount of restaurants and bars within 5-10 minutes. Street parking isn't great but I was always able to find a spot nearby. The owner operates the place well and made themselves available if any issues or questions came up. I will definitely consider staying again next time I'm in the area.
