Aalbany Motel

Absolutely disgusting. I read reviews prior to booking and was dubious. However it was the only pet friendly accommodation available and because we were relocating from Queensland to Victoria, there was no option. All arranged by telephone. Given price of $189.00 on booking. Due to late arrival, midnight, we called ahead to organise payment. Given $199.00 as price. I explained that I was told $189.00, accepted. On arrival. Room very small. Carpet was wet. Freezer in fridge not usable, over iced. Bathroom revolting. Toilet seat unhinged. Toilet roll holder broken and taped with bandaid. Walls dirty. Curtains, lace dirty and missing hooks. Plates and cups all mismatched. Poor maintenance. Everything felt grubby. What happened to pride in providing an enjoyable experience and super service? Spent 9 hrs for $189.00. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

We stayed here one night with our dog and were charged a whopping $189 for one night! Very basic motel room with tiny kitchen bench (no sink). There were cockroaches and stains on the bed. I’m sure there are much better options for a night’s accommodation on a road trip. It’s in an industrial area about a kilometer from town centre, so not a great position. Learn from my mistake and confirm a price before you arrive. Would have been ok at half the price like other basic motels used on our road trip. Ripped off!
