The hotel is ideally located right across from the beach, which allowed me to enjoy some beautiful sunrises from my room. However, the rooms themselves were in need of some maintenance, and I noticed a few cobwebs and missing paint. The service was friendly and helpful, but I did find the dining options to be quite basic. Overall, it was a decent stay, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

The hotel was perfect for our family, with a clean room that had a bunk bed and a queen bed, allowing the kids quick access to the playground they adored. The staff, although a bit slow due to the recent reopening, was friendly and doing a commendable job. The location was fantastic, conveniently close to the beach and with beautiful views of the river. While the dining options could use some improvement, especially at breakfast, it was still a good experience overall.

The hotel offers stunning views of the white sand and aqua ocean, making it a beautiful place to stay. The service from the staff was exceptional, even during a tough time with no power. However, the rooms could get a bit warm without air conditioning, and the dining experience left something to be desired with limited breakfast options. Overall, it's a good value for the location and views.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it has a beautiful location close to the beach and many activities, the rooms felt a bit outdated and musty.

The hotel has a great location across from the beach and is close to many attractions on the East Coast of Tasmania. While the rooms were mostly quiet and comfortable, they did feel somewhat outdated and needed more cleanliness. The service varied, with some staff being friendly while others seemed indifferent. Dining options were decent, but it would have been nice to have more flexibility with meals, especially with kids around.

I had a decent stay overall at this hotel. The rooms were super clean and presentable, and the staff was incredibly friendly, which I loved. However, being right above a pub/bar meant there was some noise from smokers outside, and the breakfast could have started earlier. Still, it was great for the price, and the location near the beach was a huge plus.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the upside, the location was excellent, right on the stunning East Coast of Tasmania with ocean views, and parking was convenient. However, the rooms left much to be desired—needs a serious update and were noisy. I also felt the service could improve, as it seemed like the staff prioritized security over guest needs. Overall, while it has potential with its great spot, some aspects need attention.

Rooms

The rooms really need a freshen up. They felt tired and could use a splash of paint, plus the noise insulation was lacking—I could hear everything from the neighboring rooms.

Service

The service was a bit hit or miss. While some staff were friendly, it felt like they were more focused on keeping security happy rather than the guests. We were told to go to our rooms and would have our requests taken care of later, which wasn't ideal.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the bright side, the location is stunning with beautiful views over the coast and the rooms were kept clean. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially around the kids. However, the ventilation in the rooms wasn't great, leading to some unpleasant smells, and the dining options could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it offers good value for money, especially with the one-night, get-one-free deal.

Rooms
