Albatross Motel - would recommend

Review of Albatross Motel
Reviewed Sep 19, 2016
Stayed this past weekend. Owner was very friendly with tips on different restaurants in the area. She had opened the windows so the room was nice and fresh. Bed was very comfortable.

All units are non-smoking. There are tables and chairs outside so lots of seating area which the owner said we could use for our group get-together.... and we did.

If in the area again, we would not hesitate to stay at the Albatross again.

Stayed there overnight to attend a charity fund-raising event. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Amenities were basic (refrigerator but no microwave). They had a nice BBQ and pool area but the pool was closed for the season. The owner Valda was very friendly and helpful. I'd return.

We were at Albatross for the weekend and we enjoyed our stay . The room was very clean and the ac was turned on prior to our arrival which made the room very comfortable. The staff is very accomodating and the owner Velda is wonderful. We started a fire in the chiminea and she came out to join the group of us. We have had a wonderful time and I will definitley be recommending The Albatross to friends and family. Thanks Velda for making our vacation so great we will definitley be repeat customers!!!!

Kayak advertised that they had free wi-fi. My husband and son stayed there and there was no wi-fi. No ice. Television was all in French. Terrible experience. We would never go back. Even though they had just booked the night before the owners daughter refused to give them a refund.

First of all we do not advertise with kayak. We do not advertise that we have wifi. If the television was in French then our Quebec guests converted to French language. Which would be of their choice.
It was never brought to our attention by our guest. A simple fix by converting back to English with the converter or should have been brought it to my attention. And the concern could have been resolved. Guest saw me on many occasion and did not mention any concerns regarding wifi or TV to me or my staff at all. As far as refunds go. That is a decision that would be made by management not staff.
The Albatross Motel is a very well run accommodation. We at tha Albatross have many returning guests who enjoy our hospitality. Along with our clean and comfortable accommodation. Thank you for your write up and hoping this clarifies any concerns you have regarding your husbands visit to Wasaga Beach.
