This stay at the Argosy we stayed in the newer section, everything was very modern, two double beds was good. Had a nice balcony overlooking the river, room was spacious, very clean and bathroom was heated. Our only gripe was the parking, having to park so far from the unit was inconvenient.

We stayed in the older section, so the room was a bit dated, beds were comfortable, everything else was OK. Didn't like the parking, where it was every man for himself, no designated parking spots.

Very convenient location if you're planning to travel on Spirit of Tasmania or use the airport (both are within 5-10 minutes drive). You'll have everything you need available in the room, there's a decent restaurant / bar. So, decent option to stay overnight if you're in Devonport
