Stayed one night in one of the newly renovated rooms over the easter weekend. Room is spacious, comfortable and clean. A little pricey for a night's sleep but would still recommend it. Bathroom is also clean and new. Only problem is that there's no shower curtain or door to close the shower area, only a screen which is about half... More

Spent one night in an un-remodeled room at the Dog Rock Motel. It was like going back in time -- dark paneling, plastic chairs, a bar with barstools and a very long carpeted bench back by the refrigerator. Also some soft of pass-through that may have been used for room service at one time? It felt like vacations with my... More

After a long days driving we decided to stay over rather then going home and had to chase down a hotel in Albany, this one came up and we rang and booked a room for later that evening. We didnt really know what to expect, the hotel looks a bit average but still ok. The room on the other hand... More

Stayed at the Dog Rock initially for 2 nights as we weren't 100 per cent sure on whether we were going to like it but once we checked in we decided to stay a third night. The hotel photos showed old TVs and so that made us wonder how well the rooms could have been renovated. Low and behold when... More

Stayed one night in a mid-price room. Room was newly renovated, very pleasant with all the necessary bits. Didn't go to the restaurant (Lime 303) for dinner but after all the good reviews for this and the competition in Albany thought breakfast would also be good. Very disappointed. Standard motel fare, tepid, uninspiring hot food in a bain-marie, only instant... More

The Pork Belly is amazing! We recently spent a family holiday at the Dog Rock Motel and were impressed with the friendly service and recently renovated facilities. I have to say the food from the restaurant was exceptional and as foodies we tried many places in town for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But we could not find anywhere to match... More

The stay would have been great if not for the security lapse. Personally encountered people attempting to break into the room during my two nights there. Disappointing to know that the Management did very little to step up security in the motel. I would advise all travelers to safe keep your valuables and LOCK your door at all times.
