convenient location to the city centre and also had a great view of Launceston from the room. However the room seemed to be slightly old and creaked in under the windy conditions of the city.

The property was okay. The room was nice enough. There was no lift for suitcases and parking was limited. We found the property was hard to find and needed to use a steep driveway. Wasn’t our favourite place on our trip but served its purpose for one night.

The property was clean, but on a steep slope. Also stairs to 2nd floor accommodation. Not what this old fella needs after a drive. Good spot though, clean and functional.

The only thing we didn’t like, was that when we came back late at night, the room smelt stuffy. Other than that, we were quite happy.

Pleasant check in process. Room was clean and immaculate with nice views of the city. Only note is that there is no elevator if you're booked in an upstairs room.
