The area around the Inn is safe, we left our car on the street-though there is a special lot across the street that can be used. The Stockade area has an interesting history dating back to 1690. There are old homes with placards and a walk around to the park near the Mohawk River is a must. The owner/manager helped us with our luggage as we were on the second floor. There is also an elevator to use. The location is about a 15 minute walk to the downtown Schenectady where there are a variety of dinner choices.

What could have been better? Maybe a complimentary coffee or breakfast-however, there is a privately owned cafe on site with excellent choices-you don't have to leave the hotel to get to it. Oftentimes complimentary breakfasts are unhealthy-this cafe had many coffees teas, smoothies and baked goods choices and options using high quality and fresh ingredients.

Room was nice. Inn was quiet. Free parking on site was great. 2 free cold water bottles were appreciated. Although we did not use for a 1 night stay, having a refrigerator was helpful. Manager was very helpful. We had an event at Union College and the location was very convenient for us.

A matter of personal choice, but one of the beds was overly firm. Nothing the Inn can control, but street outside had periodic loud racing vehicle engines passing by that disturbed sleep. We did not need one, but having a microwave with the refrigerator (or one in a common space) could be helpful. A pot of coffee in the common area could be a nice touch, although likely do not want to compete with the coffee shop on site.

Great location. The owner was super helpful. We received complimentary yoga at the on-site yoga studio, which was a really nice bonus. The coffee shop, Graham’s, at the back of the building was a great addition and we received a $20 gift card for there as well - nice vibe and they bake their good in-house. We were able to walk to dinner and the theater which was a plus. Room was large and bed was comfy. Also like having free streaming services and I didn’t have to enter my own credentials. Would stay here again. Looking forward to the restaurant opening.

It did take the water in the shower a long time to heat up but when I mentioned to the owner, he said they had plans to address that. Otherwise, no issues.

We stayed here for a night while passing through town for a family vacation. We are originally from the area so it was nice to see the owners working with such care to preserve such a beautiful building. Our stay was lovely, the communication from check-in to check-out was amazing. Our room was comfortable and well furnished. Amenities were perfect and service from staff was excellent. Being able to grab a coffee and a scone downstairs at the cafe on our way out in the morning was icing on the cake! We'll definitely be back the next time our travels bring up through town.

Lovely historical restored property. Owner was very attentive when we arrived and went out of his way to assure we were comfortable during our stay. Room was large with lots of windows.

On one side of the bed there was something poking my back that felt like a piece of metal. It was a king bed so I just moved away from that spot. My husband said his side was very comfortable. We weren’t sure if the two glasses provided were safe to heat the instant coffee we brought with us in the microwave. Paper cups would have been nice. The shower was very small. There was soap provided in a shower dispenser but none on the sink in bathroom.

Historic. Quaint. Fairly quiet. Coffee shop. Comfy beds nice bathroom. Nice and close to all historical sites so it’s a nice walk as a couple. Staff very nice.

Sticky door in summer. Stuck. Portable AC not central but it’s historic so expected. small shower. There is a nice bar with music playing but it’s not used. It would be nicer if you could go down for a night cap. I assume it’s used only for events however it’s inviting and disappointing you can’t get a drink and sit for a spell

It was beautiful!!! The location was great located in the historic Stockade district surrounded by 200+ year old homes and churches. Walking around the neighborhood was a sight to behold. There was a lovely market/cafe a block away we went to often. John the proprietor was so kind and welcoming. All the staff were wonderful and so helpful. The room was beautiful, large and with these incredible windows. The bathroom was spacious. We are already planning our next trip.

The historical inn was phenomenal; the location was gorgeous, the rooms were extremely comfortable, and the convenience of access to many great things was unparalleled. You can easily walk to dozens of beautiful streets and little shops/eateries. The best part of the stay? The staff. Zakhar went above and beyond any expectation I could have to help make this stay as wonderful as possible. He helped us with our car issues, stayed with us while AAA was on the way, and brought us to and from the hotel when it became apparent that our car wasn't going to turn on. I feel very fortunate to have grabbed a room here!

There isn't a single thing I'd change about the hotel itself. Their first floor was under construction to modernize some of the common rooms, so I would've loved to see all of the spaces the hotel offers. Even with the updates, this location hasn't lost its historical charm. I only wish we had arrived early enough to see the on-site cafe in action- it looks super cute!

My husband and I were to arrive in Schenectady via train past the check-in time for The Stockade Inn. Zakhar, an owner, was wonderful and stayed in touch with us via messaging. When the train arrived, Zakhar picked us up from the train station to not only transport us to the hotel, but to also point out some restaurants that were open and within walking distance. His hospitality was so warm and generous.

Responsiveness of staff was exceptional. They were very attentive and accommodating. Beautiful historic building being restored and updated. Gaining better handicap access through renovay.

There were some rooms that had construction materials in them and hallways that had construction going on so views weren't great but rooms and gathering areas were very neat and clean.
