The Hudson, albany-ny

Great experience with maintenance. Jess and Jamal were very kind and professional! I had asked to get my TV mounted and they came same day and were very quick and accommodating to my wants! If I ever need any maintenance help again, I will be reaching out to Jess and Jamal. If you ever need maintenance help, call Jess and Jamal!

I never initially intended to give a review, but I would respectfully give zero stars if I could. I was a resident of this building for two years, and it was mostly fine. Every so often, a problem would come up - an outlet would stop working, the HVAC would go out, my refrigerator would stop working, and the like. But the maintenance staff - especially Jahron (I doubt I spelled that right) always quickly worked to get it fixed. The front desk staff was mostly fine as well, with some really pulling the weight for others who seemingly just coast by. My real problem is with the money-hungry upper management who run the building. I'm really not sure if upper management is based within the actual building itself or wherever the corporate offices are, but they really made sure that they would nickel-and-dime me on my way out the door. I understand charging me $25 for wall damage over two years, and I suppose the back electric bills (the electric bills were always ridiculous here during the winter). I once got a $400 electric bill in 2025, while living in a double BY MYSELF. I was a student at the time, working a minimum-wage job; do they not understand how predatory that is? But what really irked me about this place are a couple of things specifically. 1. If you are going to charge me $75 a month for outdoor parking, where is that money going to ensure that I have a parking space? Not only were there always people without parking stickers parking in the spots meant for those who paid, but people LITERALLY now park in both the tennis courts and the front of the building. IT HAS BEEN TWO YEARS, AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. 2. Why in God's name are you charging me $200 for a damage fee, titled "CLEANING", after I moved out two months ago? Because of your greed, my deposit check is now just a mere $66. I started with $500. I then went to ask about it a couple of DAYS ago, and now the transaction went through without my consent. Thanks, Hudson. I'm really looking forward to getting a small portion of what I initially invested. Thanks for nothing. It really is a shame because when I moved here, it seemed so promising. So much for that. I humbly ask you to please look for somewhere else to live if you are a student.

Do not rent from the Hudson apartments on Washington Ave in Albany. They do not abide by their lease and management is terrible. Excessive noise and partying in the hallways all hours of the night. There is suppose to be no smoking policy however the place reeks of weed which causes firealarm to constantly go off. Security guards are useless. They do not enforce the rules. The police and firefighters are constantly getting called to the Hudson. It is not a safe place and if you complain they say they are fixing the issues and therefore will not let you out of the lease. So you are stuck paying the lease and living in an unsafe atmosphere

This is not a good place to live. The rent is high, not to mention all the added fees. There are constant fire alarms, and the police are here often. They are understaffed, so maintenance issues don't get fixed. You pay $50-100 for parking spaces they don't have, and end up having to park in the lawn. Trust me, I ignored the bad reviews, and now I'm dealing with it all firsthand.

I lived in the Hudson Albany Apartments until July 31st. On August 20 I received my check out checklist and it stated I would receive a refund of $299.33. I waited multiple weeks for my funds ,and spoke to multiple of your staff saying that my security deposit was on its way. On September 10th, I was informed on the resident portal that I now owed $1300.67. There was no breakdown of what these made up charges were, and when I talked to staff they said they had no idea what they were as well. The staff that live there also claimed they got hit with these random charges as well. They claimed that they were instructed by corporate in Utah to give former residents a email if they wish to get additional information. I would describe this complex the worst I have ever live in. No one is ever available to discuss anything. A manger was never available to discuss any concerns. And now they refuse to return fund that I am legally entitled to.
