Top Albert Lea Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn Albert Lea at Trails Travel Center

10/10 Excellent

"We stay here every year and are never disappointed!"

Cozy lakefront Log Home. Hot tub, kayak, yard toys, game room. Pontoon for rent.

10/10 Excellent

"The house was amazing, so much room and so much to entertain ourselves! Love the game room, the kayaks, antes and paddle boat. Hot tub was an added bonus as well as the pontoon rental."

Motel 6 Albert Lea

8/10 Good

"The hotel had just opened under Howard Johnsons, room was nice but soap dispenser was leaking on counter and on to bathroom floor. I let them know, I'm sure it has been fixed. I also had to call for towels, but had a set in minutes. I think my problem Saturday night was with Expedia and not hotel. Hotel would not honor reservation, Expedia said management would not answer and could not reverse payment for room they sold me until Monday after they made final determination, it was not in my favor. Even if it was the hotel, Expedia took my money for a room they couldn't provide. Hotel sold me a room but would not honor my attempted booking through Expedia. The front desk told me I was the 4th or 5th one that night and they didn't know why Expedia was marketing their rooms. It appears contracts aren't enforceable or agreed upon with new name. I feel Expedia should have atleast refunded my no cancelation booking if they are unable to force hotel to honor agreement or didn't have an agreement. Expedia said I should have purchased insurance. I can imagine a lot of reasons for not making it to my hotel or even the hotel unable to accommodate due to issues other than their relationship with Expedia, and can afford an unavoidable loss of this level. Even the insurance shouldn't pay for poor management regardless of where this everyday transaction failed. Expedia sold room as Howard Johnsons (it was) but refers to it as Motel 6 in their communications regarding this review."

Remodeled home close to lake and walking trails

10/10 Excellent

"The property met our needs as listed. It was clean and accommodating and I would recommend to friends and family however the stairwell to the basement was not mentioned. The owners may need to take into account the safety factors involving the steep stairwell to the basement to use the washer and dryer and also a safety barrier in the entrance. The entrance door is very close to the entrance to the basement. Please keep in mind any elderly you may have staying and the risks of walking up and down the steep stairwell."
