“My brother and I had a great experience staying at the Phoenix Inn in Albany. The hospitality was top notch! The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the beds were so comfortable. As someone who never sleeps good in a hotel, I was sad to leave my bed there! We stayed 5 nights and every time we were in and out, we were greeted with super friendly, polite and helpful staff at the front desk. We were visiting family nearby with limited space, so we asked if we could utilize the breakfast area for evening snacks and were told to use any plates, silverware, microwave, etc. we needed. It worked out perfectly for our visit! We enjoyed a hot, delicious breakfast each morning that had a good variety of hot breakfast options, including delicious Belgian waffles. Next time we come back for a visit, I know where we’ll be staying!”
“Love the staff. Love the clean, spacious facility with pool, shuffle board and video lottery. Drinks and food are good and reasonably priced.2023 update- Sad how far they have fallen”
“Pretty good for a fair but the prices were steep and most goods weren't good quality. The food was awesome and the entertainment on point. The cost of games however is ridiculous”
“Renee is OUTSTANDING!
You guys need to give her a raise.
Super friendly and keeping the quality control on top and that is what makes or breaks a place.
The property is spotless. The entrance and lobby area is very welcoming and professional. There is a little snack/bar area ( near the desk) where you can purchase items.
My room is fantastic. Very large.
Easily could have four people stay with no issues. Bedsheets and everything were clean and spotless.
The indoor pool and Jacuzzi are definitely welcoming because I love to swim. There is a sauna, but I did not use it.
Early morning breakfast is pretty darn good. I can be a tad on the picky side with finding some fault in that kind of arrangement.
The hold deposit was also not stupidly high like — a lot of hotels do.
Rooms: Rooms are huge and have Microwaves, fridge and Keurig coffee makers.”
“Christmas Storybook Land Linn County Expo Center
Pretty good time for children and adults. It can take a while to walk through the entire attraction of there are a lot of people. And there's NO HEAT, so dress those kiddos warm....
They have children's nursery rhymes, stories, Walt Disney cartoons, Pixar cartoons, & other characters all decked out for Christmas, in displays roped off with lights and trees. There are tables set up with mini train sets, a Teddy Bear picnic, doll houses, and much more. There's so much to see, and a couple vendors have kettle corn, and other snacks.
Donations of canned food are accepted upon entrance for local food banks, other then that it's completely free to walk through.
We've seen storybook legends such as, The Old Lady Who Lived in the Shoe & Mother Goose. At the end of the attraction is Santa & Mrs. Clause to take photos with.
This year Fitzpatrick painting has a photo opportunity also. There are photo opportunities throughout the entire attraction also.
Overall it's a local tradition my family has enjoyed for years!
Thank you everyone who makes it possible!!”
