Albany House — Hotel in Albany

I stayed in this home as an Airbnb guest, but I loved it so much I really wanted to leave a review.

Based on the airbnb listing photos I was expecting "grandma's house", something a little musty and outdated. Wow, that couldn't have been further from our experience! What an incredibly cool and historic home. There has clearly been a significant amount of care in updating this home for modern guests but preserving the original charm and history. Bang-on job. We found ourselves constantly wanting to learn more about the home! You could spend your entire trip just exploring inside the house itself, all of the cool knickknacks, treasures and board games to find throughout. We were not without a single modern comfort, and the SIX bathrooms (including three ensuites) were an incredible value for our trip. We all slept very comfortably in the four bedrooms. We went to bed earlier than the rest of the group and couldn't hear a sound from downstairs even though we were right above them chatting and playing music. Not to mention it was immaculately clean. A trip to this home is MONEY WELL SPENT!! Period!

If I could offer a suggestion for the owners for an even more incredible stay, I would say we would have loved to find a detailed history of the home. We saw many of the historic photos and assumed they were original family, but it would have been cool to read and learn even more about the home during our stay.

And, I would be remiss not to mention that if you are a larger person there are definitely some areas of the house that are not as plus-size friendly, BUT it did not significantly impact the quality of the stay. Just something to be aware of, especially for the ensuite...

This a lovely 1908 home with lots of original woodwork, flooring and fixtures. The owners are friendly, flexible, and very sociable hosts! Fantastic breakfast is provided, as well as lots of extras and amenities. Roxanne is young and energetic, and provided tons of information about the area. She and her husband have got a great vision for this historic home! She works hard to ensure that everything is just right for guests. Rooms are cozy with lots of pillows and blankets, comfy beds, fluffy towels and cotton bathrobes. At night, there is nothing but absolutely pure, blissful, silence. Little touches added extra magic to the experience. Roxanne went the extra mile to ensure that we were happy! She is right there if you need something! The area is rural but it’s in the heart of some lovely farm country and there is actually a lot to do in the surrounding towns. We will definitely be back to stay here again!! Dinner at Kristi's in New Glarus was...

This is a long overdue, sorry Roxanne for my delay! My husband and our 2 dear friends stayed at Albany House in the Eagles Nest suite in September (2019)….a few weeks after Roxanne and her husband purchased the place. Roxanne was warm and gracious. She has already put her cute touches on the house (taking down old wallpaper, pictures, adding new cute things) Our breakfasts were delicious. The suite was great for us-we had our own rooms, common bathroom and living room…we were able to hang out, play games, tv, etc. We were made to feel welcome and could explore the grounds. Close to town- we walked for pizza. And we rode our bicycles to the Sugar River State Trail for a day of riding. Reece was a cutie! Cinderella was sweet and kind. Great stay. Beautiful house. Great hostess!...
