Recommended by a local
Pros:

The Gladstone is an easy stay in the centre of the main street. Walk to shops, pubs, food, coffee and the East Shores marina precinct. Beds comfortable, very quiet, good restaurant and cafe on-site and a clean environment all round. The price is good, and as locals, this is a no brainer for us over and over again. If you are from in or out of town you cant go wrong with this one.
