    Having to leave.....

    Met Johnathan on arrival and had a great intro to property, local area restaurants etc. Our room was in a different building but we had key to access main building for breakfast. Loved the room it was spacious, clean and very comfy. The area was quiet and we felt very safe. Great stay would love to come back again one day.

    Can’t think of anything specifically

    Beautiful old property. Well appointed cozy room with a small kitchenette. Close to the avenue with all the restaurants but far enough to not have any noise. Very accommodating host.

    This is such a charming Inn! The hosts were welcoming, the common space was lovely, and I loved discovering that it was the long-time home of Alice Morgan Wright, a sculptor and suffragette. The neighborhood by the park and State Street was charming, and I got a great dinner recommendation at a local place. The room was comfortable, spacious, and well-appointed. This was a quick one-night stay in the middle of a train trip to Montreal -- but I wished I could have stayed longer! I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in Albany.

    Room in annex was lovely but a few of the items were a bit worn. For example, pillows were flat and needed to be replaced. Bathrobe in closet was frayed.

    Beautiful historic building - both main building and annex. Easy parking in a secure lot. Very good breakfast. Great location.

    We didn’t stay for breakfast, but there wasn’t too many options for it? However, that is me TRYING to find something I don’t like about it. My boyfriend and I were so happy with this trip.

    It was very cozy and beautiful. The location was close to some good night life as well which was great!

    Not much, no aircon in the room, just a fan in the ceiling, but not a problem in April and kept us cool. Surrounding streets at night seemed a little sketchy to me, but I'm not used to American cities, so maybe it was just me. Nothing to do with hotel

    Loved the building, and the host was excellent

    Instructions on where to park need to be sent earlier- we didn’t get them until we arrived because we were driving as they were sent. As this was also intended to warn us of the crazy traffic due to the festival, it didn’t exactly help.

    Great location opposite the park and within easy walking distance of the main plaza. I’m glad we booked a parking spot as the tulip festival was on, and the traffic was literally bumper-to-bumper. Property was stylishly period, with solid furniture and proper crockery, and breakfast was beautifully served.

    There is nothing I didn’t love but I will caution those with limited mobility- it’s all stairs. If you suffer any type of mobility issues, unfortunately I don’t think this is the place for you.

    Everything about the Morgan State House Inn is just perfect! The location. The accommodations. The hosts.

    No fault AT ALL to the Morgan State House (I mean you are in a historic home) but, be prepared if you book the artist studio on the 4th floor, to walk 4 flights of stairs. They are very honest about this in the booking, so if you struggle with stairs, choose a room on the 2nd floor.

    Staff, John, Amanda and Chuck were amazing. Very professional and offered advice about where to eat. Loved being in a historic house. Everything we went to was in walking distance (The Egg and restaurants). We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back again for the next show at the Egg.

    n.a.

    The very charming and relaxing house, with tasteful furniture and plenty of common areas to enjoy. The location, walking distance from many places where to eat and just in front of a park. The spacious room and bathroom, old style but with all what was needed to be functional. The availability of a secure parking area, at the moderate fee of 10$/night. The kindness and warmth of the owners/managers, Chuck and Janine, always ready to get out of their way to help.

    Better value for a couple, and perhaps longer stay, given the efficiency kitchen, comfortable armchairs, and lovely living/room in main building, 393 State Street, which I had no time to really use.

    Room in architectural landmarked building, (my room was in Morgan State House Annex, 399 State Street), with beautifully appointed furniture, and gorgeous wall hangings, carpet, and plenty of drawer and closet space. Television, radiator, ceiling fan, radio, sound machine (who knew?) all in great working order. Bedding lovely, bed quite comfortable, and bathroom clean and neat.

    The House is exactly as described. I wanted a room with a king bed- we got a beautiful room on the top floor. Be aware there are 4 floors and there is no elevator. The staff accommodated us by keeping our luggage downstairs. The breakfast was just right, with great coffee. Yogurt, all kinds of bread choices, pastries, juice, cereal. Thank you Chuck. We loved eating at Roberto's.. get a reservation there if you can.

    Beautiful B&B with charming rooms and warm welcoming staff.

    • Queen Library Suite- Walk Up
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The only part of the stay that was not lovely was that both mornings that I stayed, I had planned to sleep in till around 9am but it was impossible because starting at 6:30am thee were other guests downstairs having a rollicking time talking and laughing with each other and the morning staff. Perhaps they were trying to be quiet but the sounds echo loudly through such an old home. In any case, the group was so loud, and kept it up for so long, that both mornings their noise woke me up and kept me up. So, if you do stay at this Inn and plan to sleep past 7am I would highly recommend packing some ear plugs. Otherwise, everything was five stars.

    The Morgan State House Inn is a beautiful gem in the heart of downtown Albany. The inn is lovingly kept, with mahogany floors and stairs, decorated thoughtfully, and a warm and welcoming staff. The rooms are stunning. I especially loved the suite I stayed in which had its own private library off of the bedroom, in addition to a small dressing room off of the bathroom. The bed and bedding were luxuriously comfortable. Continental breakfast was simple and self serve but perfectly fine (coffee, tea, muffins, cereal). A lovely place to stay if in Albany for business, and would also make a perfect romantic getaway stay location.
