The room had a damp/old carpet smell, which didn't go when you opened the door. The silicon in the bathroom was mouldy and missing around parts of the sink. There was a very dodgy electrical set up in the bathroom. The plate which should be attached to the wall was sitting on top of the heater. I hope no one turns it on! You had to move the bedhead to access any plugs on that side of the room. There was a fan, but the legs had been shortened to fit in a cupboard, so it wasn't stable. The staff were friendly. I wouldn't recommend this motel.

We felt the property was very roomy big enough for family. However the bathroom and kitchen needs updating with a shower instead of bath. The owners/managers were very obliging supplied requests promptly

I have stayed here several times and it offers good value. The staff are helpful and courteous. The room was a little 'tired' with 1970s- style furnishings but that did not bother me. It was clean and comfortable. I appreciated the early checkin, but soap near the bathroom basin instead of only in the shower would have been helpful.

Nice place! Accessible by bus, but be aware it's a hilly area so would not be an easy walk to/from Hobart CBD for everyone. No air conditioning.
