Great location near town with easy parking. The room was clean with a lovely modern bathroom. It is however located at the top of a hill and entry requires stairs

Nice place, steep walk back from town

This place is near the top of a steep hill, not far from town but a hard walk home. The staff were very helpful, the room was nice with a reasonable view, but we didn't rebook due to the inconvenience of getting back after an evening out

Nice, comfortable clean motel. Its off the main road and on a steep drive, so a bit tricky to find but that makes it very quiet! Quite a walk to shops, so you would need a vehicle. Nice modern bathroom wtuh a superb rain shower which was lovely.

The property is located near the heart of Launceston. It was on a steep hill so to walk up from city maybe challenging for some (lucky they have parking!). The bed was a bit too soft to my liking but other than that the room was quiet at night and clean.
