Thank you for your review. We are currently undertaking renovations of our showers. In the past guests have required a large wardrobe for hanging space, this is not the case nowadays so we are taking half the wardrobe and giving it to the shower, making the shower twice the size. I hope we see you again so you can see the better shower.

The overall rating is based on what one would expect from this type of hotel. It is not a fancy tourist venue, but a modestly priced family hotel. As such it is excellent value for money the staff friendly and helpful. It has a pleasant dining room with a fairly priced not overly pretentious menu. The rooms are large, clean and comfortable with the standard facilities.

Thank you for your comments. I am sorry that you were disappointed with your accommodation and that things were missed when the room was housekept. As your review is anonymous I cannot make sure that this room is corrected, however I have checked all rooms in an effort to have the housekeeper advised of the problems. It would appear from your comment of updating that you may have had a standard room, if you were to revisit us we would happily upgrade you FOC to a newly renovated room. Only 4 rooms to go!

Good Hobart area Motel
Nice place to stay while in the Hobart area - beds were good and it was clean. We enjoyed that they gave us plenty of towels and the breakfast in the morning was quite good. They also had complimentary washer/dryer available which was wonderful. We stayed there upon arrival to Tasmania and then before we left and are glad we did!

Thank you for your review. I am pleased that your room was comfortable but am sorry you did not enjoy your dinner special, the reason you were charged in full was because the meal was consumed,except for a very small piece. I do hope you enjoyed your other meals each night. A renovation schedule is being undertaken on our standard room bathrooms but unfortunately had not reached your room yet. Again thank you for your feedback we will take it under advisement.
