Convenient city stay
Pros:

Great, central location and wonderful staff.

Cons:

The room felt a little dated. The beds were quite uncomfortable. There was a lot of noise that could be heard from surrounding rooms which made sleep difficult.

Pros:

Location was fantastic for us

Cons:

Over priced to the Hilt. $600 a night for a very basic room with a stretcher bed squeezed into the corner. Pillows we're terrible, very basic, we had to ask for towels & toilet paper. On day we didn't even get our bed pulled up not maid any day they just pulled the sheets up. For $600 a night it should of had been alot better than we got. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

A comfortable accommodation with easy access to Hobart and shopping complex. Easy parking.
Pros:

All rooms had built in cupboards which made staying comfortable. All rooms had a queen double bed and adequate bedding. Each room had a small oil heater, that heated the room well, however, it was not very cold during our visit.

Cons:

The fence could have a gate to access the walkway. It could be a council limitation. The front door had a glass which impinged on privacy. Further, I presume that there was no public transport near the accommodation.
