We called in on a Sunday whilst on a touring holiday of Tasmania. Everything our stay here was disappointing. We booked a room in the motel, it dint reflect photos, tored & worn out, door didnt stay closed unless you locked it. You struggled to get in the door as the double bed was too close. No hairdryer or available when asked. Proceeded to the lounge, my wife & i had to muscle through four guys surrounding the bar to get service from a fairly disinterested barman, more interested in the loud ribald stories being told by the lads. Was escorted to a table in one of the dining areas. Ordered a meal. Wanted to order a Wine from a disappointing wine menu. Wasnt able to be served from the bar in this area even though it was connected to the previously mentioned bar, where my wife had to squeeze between lads. Two pretty ordinary inedible meals arrived. Eventually retired to our room. There is a smoking alcove outside the back of the hotel, ten meters from the motel rooms. A collection of young females smoked drank and carried raucous loud coverversations till very late. Didnt heed any attempt by motel guest to quieten it down
I rarely post negative reviews but stay...
Read moreThe motel rooms that look so tiny online and outside are deep so larger than you expect. They have new kitchenettes, good sized modern shower rooms, and comfortable beds. We were on a fundraising cycling tour and the staff couldn't have been more helpful nor more friendly. They even waved our donation tin under all the patron' s noses and we received some wonderful donations for Parkinson's research. If you are there on a Wednesday night beware - the garbage truck comes along the lane right outside the motel room doors in the small hours, and proceeds to pickup and drop (one quite well!) some huge metal bins located in the lane. If you order the vegetable lasagne I'd advise you get a half serve - they were huge, but perhaps I got a quadruple serve as I looked like I'd ridden 150kms (which I had) and I would strongly suggest you ask for no extra sauce on top. A flood of 2 types of sweet white sauces were added to my dish (on both the lasagne and the accompanying veg) These are VERY unusual, and definitely not my cup of tea. At least 4 staff members popped by our table just to have a chat, they were truly...
Read moreThis was the most disgusting place I have stayed since leaving home on 29 Jan. 2018. Paid $130 a night and was going to stay two nights but could not leave the place sooner. The room stank of foul toilet deodorant, which made it impossible to sleep, the smoking area was filthy and when I asked for a wine glass to take to my room I was told there were not enough, they were needed for the hotel patrons. I counted 6 patrons. At 5am I was disturbed by bottles being thrown into the bin. The cleaner was more helpful and hospitable than the barmaid!!!!!! I have being paying anything from $100 - $175per night, my $100 a night far out weighed your establishment. I am paying $130 tonight and have an extremely large room with a queen and a single bed, the staff are going out of their way to be helpful. Maybe you should clean up your act or let your rooms for far less than what you are asking. Maybe $40 a...
