Liked: Cleanliness
Room had been partially renovated. Renovations were good, but some had not been done - paint flaking etc on door, skirtings. Be prepared for a lot of road noise - windows are not double glazed even after renovation. Also had very noisy guests nearby after midnight - which of course is not the fault of the hotel. Other than that - it is a convenient location with a bistro attached for dinner and breakfast.

Handy for the Spirit of Tasmania

Although quite busy with many travellers arriving at the same time after disembarking the ferry, check in was efficient and informative. The on-site restaurant offered a range of tasty meals. The room was comfortable. There was excellent water pressure and temperature in the shower but the waterfall shower for a tall person means the floor in the bathroom is inundated.
