You should always read the fine print ..
Thought I was getting a hearty breakfast includued in my stay ..
However ther was additional costs which were masked behind the advertising ..
I did hear other gusests who where miffed at the idea of paying extra for an included breakfast ..

Clean, comfy and convenient.
We wanted a reasonably priced, clean and comfortable room for a few nights in Launceston and thats what we got. Our room was a little dated, but it was clean and had everything we needed. The night porter was exceptionally friendly and helpful and all the staff were good. Location is convenient and free breakfast is a great bonus.

Great location and value
Great location,comfortable bed, large room and good shower plus parking and breakfast which was fabulous.
There was a little noise from the adjoining room but it was brief and stopped early. I Highly recommend this hotel in Launceston and will stay again. The gentleman on reception was particularly friendly and helpful regarding the city eating places.

Breakfast was good being included in the cost of the room. The wifi was terrible in our room which was a new refurbished room. We were the first to stay in it. Smelt of paint and a tradesman came in to finish off a power point and the curtains were dirty and faded and we were told new curtains were arriving next week. The property advertised that it had a restaurant and a bar. It had neither. The staff were friendly but our upgrade to the newly refurbished room was a disappointment. It was uninspiring no character no artwork but it was a big room. Having said that it was close to everything and they were trying to improve it. Perhaps totally finish off a room before charging it out.

The room was clean, however on arrival the room was freezing. After switching on the heat pump the room remained cold.
The continent breakfast was delicious with an array of fruit, cereal and breads.

The room was spotlessly clean, however lacked modern ammenities. For a lower price point this would be acceptable, but for $250 per night for the room I expect more.
