Bang average, needs a proper clean.
This was a basic motel, close to the centre. It really was bang average but needs a refurb. Our room was covered in black hair when we arrived and cup ring stains on surfaces. The entire place needs a
Serious clean. It’s location is great and the staff are lovely but if you’re precious about cleanliness I wouldn’t stay here.

Needs urgent maintenance.
You get what you pay for...So I suggest you pay extra and stay somewhere else!
The reception guy was helpful and friendly but that's where the positive ended.
The room was grubby with dust on all surfaces. Fluff and hair on the floor, toilet seat broken (surely the cleaner, if it's cleaned, would see this). Cupboard doors latches broken. Even the one and only bedside light didn't work!
The bed linen was fresh and clean but the bed was hard and lumpy so moved to the small single bed in the room which was marginally better.
All in all this place needs urgent basic maintenance and a good clean.

Staff are really friendly. Building is lovely art deco, great location to view the waters and stars and convenient walk away from amenities and the city (If you enjoy walks). Public transport just out front, heritage suburb just "behind". The room is not a hotel but is good enough for resting, and you are getting heritage, friendliness and convenience to the important things - experience!

Its Budget accomodation in a multi-storey building that has seen better days. What can't be comprromised is customer safety, the stairs leading from ground to 1st, 2nd & 3rd floor have extensively frayed carpet edges at the fron of the steps, thiscould easily result in a major fall, this looks to have been like this for years ... cleanliness in the bathrrom was also an issue and needs more attention ... the Towels were clean the bed was clean and comfortable I'd give it 3 stars because its conveniently located .... reception from the young man was welcoming and unfussed ... mobile communication from the venue was helpful, but parking at the edn of a day exploring was non-existent and could result in parking fines if parking in the local streets.

Great location and cheap. Room was clean but its quite cold with no heating except a lil floor heater. Probably wouldnt stay here in winter. But it was clean and easy to access everything around hobart.
