Overnight stay

A bit hard to check in during the out of hours or public holiday if you are in a rush and just want somewhere to stay the night. You need to email them back all your ID and card details before they can give you instructions on how to self check in. Luckily, one of the receptionists came to the office to assist us to check in. Apart from that, room is okay with amenities.

These are serviced apartments so I was taken aback when the rules state that you have to take your own rubish to the bins. The carpet in the room was not properly vacuumed and there was fluff and hairs in the bathroom. The walk into the town centre was much longer than specified. I wont be staying here again.

Elphin Apartments were good option for my one night stay in Launceston. There is a KMart and Supermarket over the road so easy enough to get what you need. I had to carry my heavy bag up stairs, which was a little difficult.
