Room was not done up from prior guests. Substitute room looked as if it had been used by someone before.
Arrived after last flight from Sydney to a cold room in dark motel strip at back of closed restaurant. Room that took forever to warm up. Would be good practice to warm room before check in. Dirty towel from last guest hanging over closet rail so did not even use closet. Good thing this was only one night before hitting the road. Should have stayed in city given the price of this accommodation. Travelling for work - made for a rocky start to my week. No plan for how I would get into room. By luck one lovely staff at the restaurant retrieved key. No message with late check in instructions. Odd business management.
The room was clean and comfy. The facility was easy to get to and in a good location for exploring the rest of southern Tassie. Twenty minutes from Hobart means that you don't have to deal with the city noise. The food options were plentiful at the restaurant and the prices were reasonable. The Asian fusion place next door is amazing and just adds another reason to stay at the hotel. Two weeks and I never ran out of options for food. Area is quiet at night, so you get a good sleep. Will definitely stay here again.
A great motel accomodation for somewhere just to sleep for a night or two. Handy to have the pub right there with very decent meals and drinks. Was hardly anyone else staying there the night we were there so it was very quiet for us. Nice location by the water.
Affordable price, pretty happy all around will definitely consider staying there again.
Easy parking, clean room with a comfortable bed. Bistro was closed, however the restaurant above the hotel (Altitude) was open, we had a good meal there.
