The restaurants are great and the theater is huge. There are some decent clothing stores and fun shops like lush and bath and bodywork's etc. It's a fun place to kill a few hours or a whole day if you wanted! It can be dirty in the bathrooms but I think that it's just that busy all the time it's hard to keep up with.

There is an uneven balance to this mall... there's an area where it looks updated. Then other spots... just feels old and icky. The food court is not very appealing. The bathrooms are not very clean. That's just the look and feel, aesthetically very old mall. I wouldn't be able to tell about service bc I hardly saw anyone with uniform that looks like they work for the mall operations. As for shops, there are quite a few decent stores - Zara, H&M, Victoria Secrets, Primack, REI, very typical mall brands. If you ever need something, outfit for something, hit this mall up. I'm excited to see a Singapore Cafe type spot is opening soon! Can't wait.

I have used them in the past with no issues but this time is a nightmare. First the woman at the…read morecounter when I checked in was very rude. I was shocked as the people who bring you in the shuttle have always been very nice. My issue is that I was charged by them 5 times for the same service. They have given me the run around telling me that I waited a month so it made it my fault that I no longer have the ticket when it was them that waited a month to charge it. Now they are blaming their bank for doing it and say there are lot of us in this situation and we just have to wait. Over 300.00 being taken by them is an issue and having it tied up for who knows how long is unacceptable. Customer Service needs to be better for sure.

Also, with some good snack options. I am a creature of habit and always stop in at Starbucks for my drink inside of the Barnes and Nobles bookstore.

Ah, good old Wolf Road, always evolving. I don't get back home too often, but I seem to always see…read morenew businesses popping uphere. Chain burger joints seem to be the new craze on this strip. Luckily some of the oldies like JT Maxie's, Denooyer Chevy and others are still around! Most people don't realize this busy Capital Region road used to all be farmland a mere 60 YEARS ago. My mom grew up in the South Colonie area, it has got to be wild to have experienced how much this has changed. I think there MAY be one private residence left on this road. I was looking through an old book on Wolf Road while I was home in the 518. It's by Naylor, Platt and Platt, I imagine the Colonie Town Library would have a copy. I was skimming the book and found out that a country club once stood where Colonie Center is. I lived in Albany 30+ years and it's amazing how much that mall has evolved, it's now quite nice for this region. I remember the Herman's sporting good store on Wolf Road, that moved to Colonie Center and is now long gone. I miss the days when we had Papa Gino's across from the mall! I remember driving by Jerry's Bike Shop and Cranberry Bog often as a kid, hard to believe these spots are no longer there. Platt's Deli was another popular Wolf Road institution, that was replaced by Bucca di Beppo (if I remember correctly). It's amazing how many businesses have come and gone over even just the last 20 years. 2012 brought us Trader Joe's, which has horrible parking nation wide and even in Smalbany too! I'm not quite sure why they placed this popular store in such a congested area! The traffic on Wolf Road is to be avoided at Xmas, but after living in Los Angeles, I now snicker when my friends complain about this thoroughfare.

People demonize Wolf Road all the time. There are some folks who say that they avoid it all costs…read more Others won't patronize a business if it chooses to open up a spot on this commercial stretch in Colonie. They are missing out. Sure, to the untrained eye it can look like nothing but a parade of chain restaurants. On the south end there's IHOP, PF Chang's and The Cheesecake Factory. On the north end there's Moe's, The Outback Steakhouse, and Red Lobster. And there's a lot more in between. And during peak traffic hours, it can come close to resembling a small downstate traffic jam. All joking aside, it can be some of the worst traffic in the region. But Wolf Road has its good sides too. My love for Trader Joe's is well documented, and its convenient back entrance makes the Wolf Road business accessible to anyone clever enough to use it. Then of course there is the Hong Kong Bakery and Bistro. We don't have very many authentic Chinese restaurants in the region, but this is one of them. And I've heard there are good Chinese dishes on the menu at Buffalo Wagon too, although I have yet to try any for myself. Subbers is on Wolf Road too, and if you are a fan of mozzarella sticks, you have to try their take on the form. Ted's Fish Fry outpost also offers delicious fried treats that aren't from a nathional chain. Lemondrop was revealed to have tasty boba tea. I've got to get there and order one half-sweet. And the shop also has some of the tartest tart yogurt around. And lucky for me, that's just how I like it. Off almost everyone's radar is U Mundu E Ca, the Italian market that just hosted a pop up dinner featuring locally famous chefs Brian Bowden and Mark Graham. I'm not sure if it makes up for the evils of Buca di Beppo around the corner, but it certainly comes close Benson's Pet Center is there too, which is another great regional business that has nothing to do with food. Of course there is no getting around that this small strip of activity has two Starbucks. But one of them has a fire place and the other has a drive through. So, in a way, they are totally different. The truth is, that I don't instinctively hate chains or malls either. Some of them are fine. I love great coffee, but I occasionally go for the convenience of Starbucks. The wings at The Ruck are my favorite in the region, but once in a while I'll get a hankering for a breaded wing from Hooters. Honest Weight is a fabulous store, but Whole Foods has my favorite prosciutto and great salami sliced to order. And thanks to Wolf Road and Colonie Center, we even have a Tesla super charging station. I get the problems of businesses leaving the cities and moving to the suburbs. I understand how communities can improve with rich retail areas that encourage walking over driving. And I value those things. I really do. But I'm not so blinded by them that I can't see the good in this far too reviled road.

I also love my athletic wear so I always go to Athleta as well as home shops Pottery Barn and Sur La Table.

Absolutely Horrible Experience - Stay Far Away!…read more Albany Parking is an absolute scam. They charged me SIX DAYS before the next month even started, then refused to refund me when I cancelled just two days later. I didn't even use the garage ONCE and they still took my money with a "too bad" attitude. This is straight-up theft. Their customer service is a joke--completely unhelpful and rude. On top of that, the garages themselves are filthy, run-down, and desperately in need of renovations. Save yourself the headache and avoid Albany Parking at all costs. There are much better options out there. Don't make the same mistake I did!

My review is mixed here, only because it seems like since I moved to center square, the City of…read moreAlbany and Albany Parking Authority have made it more difficult for residents who pay very high taxes, to park in our neighborhoods. From adding pay parking on North Swan street and taking free spots away from residents, to not monitoring temporary no parking signs in from of residences, and still towing cars, even when the sign was removed. That sign is the responsibility of the owner and Parking Authority to ensure it is where it should be, and if it is not, then DO NOT tow a car, that is technically parked legally. I would have given less than 3 stars, but the Quakenbush garage took care of my car for only $135/month, when I was away for an extended period of time, and is the best service for the price and location, compared to other garages locally.

Regarding the facility itself, I would rate it a 9 of 10. The "negative point" is the location of EV chargers ONLY at the entrance on the 1st floor. Another location in the garage somewhere near the top would be a great improvement. People who have to go to the 7th floor have a long way to go to get out from that spot, and it isn't the safest of walks there either.
