We booked this as a one night stop on our way up North and it was such a great experience. It was spacious and comfortable. Very well lit. Very clean. The amenities were great! The back deck was the perfect unwind from a long trip. My 6 yo loved the swingset. The hosts included a lot of really sweet and thoughtful touches. Kids books and magazines in the bunk bed room. Books and puzzles and decks of cards in the living room. A piano which my kids were obsessed with. Free use of streaming services. 10/10 recommend if you’re going to be in Albany.

We were visiting Albany for a family event. Liza and Jermaine’s home was perfect for our group. Everything was clean and tidy, the location was easy to find in a quiet location, safe neighborhood, off street parking in the driveway. House was well equipped, family friendly, our granddaughter loved playing in the back yard on the swing set. The kitchen had everything needed for basic cooking. The beds were comfortable, abundant thirsty towel in the bathroom. Their home really made our travels so easy. Wish we had been able to stay longer and if we return to Albany with a group I would love to stay again

About the host

Hosted by Liza Powell

Host profile image
Hello! I’m an Albany (aka Smalbany) native & host just a few houses down from where I grew up—this neighborhood is full of memories & means a lot to me. Albany’s given me so much, so I try to pay it forward by volunteering w. a few local nonprofits that target inner-city kids, while also working in the public health field.

Although I've always lived in Albany, I love exploring new places & learning about different locations' cultures & history.

Why they chose this property

Just minutes from downtown Albany and several shopping malls as well as walking distance to a variety of parks, I love the convenience of this location and family-friendly-nature of this neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

If you're visiting the Albany-area, the LOCATION of this property is prime!
