    I loved the design features of the motel, and the fire pits were a nice touch. The restaurant had a great vibe, good food and the music was excellent as well.

    Nothing.

    This really was a gem of a find on our holiday, lovely place with exceptional facilities. They have gone out of their way to turn this from a motel to a boutique style hotel and it works! the communal fire pits were a real treat to and a great way to meet people over an afternoon drink. The breakfast voucher at Bird on the Roof was a great touch too.

    Nothing could be improved. Perfection.

    We only stayed for one night after 4 nights in NYC. It wasn't enough! This place is a real gem, We loved Montauk and the road trip out of the city, before catching a flight home to London. The Rooms were cool & lovely, and the bed is probably the most comfortable bed, with the best bed sheets I've ever slept on! Absolutely dreamy! The outside area is super cute and I would have loved to stay longer to spend more time there! The owners are really helpful and gave us some great tips for food, sunset view and drinks for our one night stop. It was a magical night that will never be forgotten! Thank you!

    Just 1 min walk away from the beach. Room was very spacious and clean. Furniture, decoration and kitchen equipment stylish but not overdone. Bathroom was very clean as well. Beds very comfortable, slept very well on the mattresses. Check-in staff was friendly, competent and very helpful. We would return to the Albatros any time we stay on Long Island again.

    The walls were kinda thin. We could very clearly hear our neighbors conversations, and I am sure they heard us too. We heard them very clearly partying until 200 am. The shower stall was kinda small. The sink water was extremely hot, but the shower was lukewarm. I like a hot shower so that was slightly disappointing. The housekeeper unlocked our door and walked into our room, never knocking. She seemed to believe we were supposed to be checked out, but we booked two days and weren’t due to leave until the next day. Simple misunderstanding I guess, but kinda rude. Good thing we weren’t undressing or something…and good thing we were there.

    Our room was a good size and clean. There was a cute kitchenette with a table and two chairs, which was fantastic for eating our takeout. Some motel rooms we have been to in Montauk don’t have two chairs, so you end up eating on the bed or standing. The balcony was great and if it weren’t so cold I would have loved to have used it. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. We were walking distance to everything. The staff was very friendly. I really enjoyed the outside area, particularly the heated sitting area. This was my first time at Daunt’s and I will definitely be back.

    This isn’t a typical motel. Daunts Albatross Motel is one of the most beautiful motels I’ve ever stayed at. It was very clean, the staff was so friendly & the location is just perfect. I typically don’t write reviews but Daunts deserve one. My friends and I think about coming back in spring and we will for sure book our stay at Daunts

    Rooms were a bit dirty, there was some weird splatter on the wall (probably from the previous guests). The table and chairs in the room weren’t very comfortable. If you’re planning to use the room to work remotely, it isn’t the best.

    The location is great, super close to the center of Montauk and a lot of restaurants. We were there during the off season, so the fire pits were a great added benefit. The hotel is close to the beach which I’m sure is great during peak season. They also have bikes (with helmets and locks) so you can ride around town or even all the way to Montauk lighthouse (about 5.5 miles away). The staff are friendly and helpful.

    Unfortunately, it rained while we were here but we will be coming back when the weather is better. Great place for a great price!

    Daunts is in between the beach and the town. The traffic circle with all the shops and some restaurants is within walking distance. The hotel is cute with a nice pool and cute courtyard/dining area. Very clean and staff was very nice.
