Morgan State House Inn

A very special experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Close to restaurants and activities. We’ll be back.

Fabulous location for our quick visit. The owner had many useful suggestions. We would stay again if we’re back in the area.

This is a very interesting and unique place to stay. The location is amazing - overlooking Washington Park, walkable and access to many areas of Albany. A couple of suggestions: the parking lot is a short block from the property which I learned just an hour before arriving. The property address is the place where you check in, which is a brownstone with stairs for entry. Upon checking in I was told I would be in a room 2 buildings down the street, and then given a key chain with 3 keys for access to that building, and the room. Its very much like an Airbnb since the building where I stayed had other occupants (renters, etc.). The room was big and comfortable - a little on the older side but that's not an issue for me. My television did not work - it was a DirectTV (dish) system - and it never worked during my stay. To check out you walk back down the street, ring the bell for assistance and enter that building to check in. Overall, I think this is a nice and unique place with great access - but they need to figure out communication and process a bit more. Older folks with mobility issues would not be a good fit for this hotel option!

What a unique spot to stay in Albany - a lot of character, helpful management, lovely location across from the park and in historic buildings. My room was in the "annex" in an apartment building down the block and, while it is not a fancy building, I was very happy with my room (which was a suite with a kitchen, bathroom, large closet, etc.). I had a view of the park and the decor had some nice, funky touches. My only kvetches would be that while the wifi was strong, it wasn't always reliable - it would drop out at times. And, being an old building, it was a little noisy with "old building sounds" at night (it was winter so probably related to the heating). The included breakfast was not lavish but more than did the job and included some nice options. I would definitely come back.

A hidden gem. I love this place. I can’t fault it. Apart from Wi-Fi dropping signal. But outstanding little place. Historical, boutique chic. Great for short stay. The staff where incredibly friendly and couldn’t do enough for me. I will definitely be back. I look forward to seeing you guys on the early new year.

Well appointed historical property next to Washington park and all the Lark street restaurants. Would definitely stay here again. Great, friendly owner. Secure parking a plus.

Amazing location in a lovely historic property. The bed part was great, the breakfast part was underwhelming. My gluten free wife had very sad breakfast options so I walked down the street and picked her up a meal from the Iron Gate Cafe.

Very well maintained historic building. Not so sure I’d want to be walking around neighborhood at night.

This was a nice place to stay! Staff were friendly and helpful. The only issue with our particular room was that the bathroom faucet was so rusted it was nearly impossible to turn the handles. I’d recommend staying here though!
