My stay was very comfortable and quiet. The staff were very friendly and the room was cleaned daily. The accommodation was a little dated, but was value for money. When I return to Albany, I will consider staying there again.

Staff were so helpful. No complaints at all. Room was comfy and shower was hot. Chilled wine glasses and microwave, plus plates and utensils made for a pleasant stay.
4.0 / 10.0
The carpet was stained. Squished bugs on ceiling and walls. The seats were so disgusting we would not even put a bag on them. The bed was sunken and you could feel every spring. Dude with loud engine doing ‘deliveries’ all night. This was terrible and so not worth the money.
6.0 / 10.0
The room was clean but very much in need of complete renovation and modernisation! Ok for a one night stop over but thats all. Albany is amazing with plenty to do and see, costal views that take your breath away!

10.0 / 10.0
checking in was easy, the receptionest was really nice ( sorry forgot her name ) we had a standard room and was suitable for our needs and very clean.if i had to pick a negative for me it was having a top sheet on top of the doona, although i believe this is the in thing now, to me it is quicker, easier & cooler to just to remove the doona and leave the top sheet on, but everyone is different. so not a big deal.
6.0 / 10.0
The room was neat and tidy. However the air conditioner was noisy and a bit too cold. The pillows are hard. The sheets in my opinion had too much starch in because every turned over in bed all you heard were the sheets.
10.0 / 10.0
Easy access, room with all amenities, and very good staff.
4.0 / 10.0
Check in is easy and quick. Staff is polite. But the room is a bit old and worn out esp the toilet. Items to be charged in the minibar don’t match the actual items e.g. mineral water, chips on the list but bottled spring water and snack rings were put on the table. I didn’t aware and mistakenly open the spring water bottle and had to pay $2.5.
Overall speaking, the location is good and nice to stay 1-2 nights on the trip
10.0 / 10.0
Comfortable stay, my room was clean and tidy. The only thing I can complain about is the cleaning ladies were extremely loud talking and laughing outside my room and in the laundry which was right next door to my room. Other than that, it was great. 😊

We liked the peace and quiet even though the hotel is situated on a busy road, and there is a cycle path connecting you to city centre.

4.0 / 10.0
Good location and a 20 min walk to town to shop and visit some pubs. Rooms clean and tidy and the top side rooms have a good view across to the North/East.

we stay here almost every week when we drive into Albany
6.0 / 10.0
Power was turned off 2 hours prior to paid checkout time. We realise this was out of property’s control but this information was not disclosed until after checkin and payment for the stay was complete and only provided via a note left on the bed, information not disclosed at time of checkin via reception and only discovered much later in the evening as on arrival bags only dropped off into room so we could attend to other business. Very inconvenient to set early morning alarm after a full day of travel and preparation for family funeral just to ensure a shower and preparation for the day. If we had been made aware of the scheduled power outage, given the purpose of our booking accommodation, we would have booked elsewhere.

Expedia staff took my $313.12 as a bond last week without any explanation and I’m still waiting to get back my money. I was too embarrassed and spent couple of hours to figure it out during my trip and it made me upset about Expedia. I hope to get back my money as soon as possible.
