Pros:

Fabulous position with beautiful views and the best shower we’ve had in Tasmania. Pub food was ok.. steaks over cooked but tasty. Rooms well equiped.
The beds were as hard as rocks and pillows to high. However we would still stay here again as the price and position are excellent.

Cons:

The beds are very firm.

Clean inexpensive motel with comfortable beds and nice bathrooms
Pros:

Good location. Room overlooked the bay and was good sized. The room was also quiet, and newly remodeled. Walkable to everything in town.

Cons:

Parking was across the street for the car and the casino vibe and liquor store attached to the hotel was a bit worrysome but not a problem.

Cons:

All good; dated property but we were comfortable.
