My room in the basement. Every time I opened my curtain, there were people's feet...main floor or higher would have been better.

Our room smelled like it used to be a smoking room? Also one of the mattresses had a noticeable sag on one side. Otherwise things were fine.

I have stayed at the Albatross a few times now. The front desk staff range from extremely friendly and wonderful, to rude, ignorant and just downright unfriendly. My latest visit was enough to drive me away for good. The older, grey hair lady at the desk was just pure unpleasant. I did nothing but show up (after the appropriate check in time, not before) to check in and got nothing but rudeness. She was worse to the people who were there before me. And when we walked in with our bags we could hear her talking very loud and ignorantly to someone on the phone. She is not good for the business.

We stayed for 1 night. The room was ok. I feel like every room should have a refrigerator but ours didn’t. It was an inconvenience since it was summer and a heat warning

Elevator was down during our stay. Bathroom door would not close. Poor seating in the room, a cheap office chair just does not cut it. Best view of the tv was while seating on the toilet. No microwave or mini frig. in room.

It's a well established spot on the TCH midway across Newfoundland. There are additional amenities nearby. They let me do my laundry before checking in. Staff in front, restaurant, and lounge were great to me.
