I recently booked a 6 night stay at this hotel via wotif. This motel was very reasonably priced and had a fabulous king size bed to stretch out in along with 1 single bed. The rooms had recently been refurbished with new bathrooms, they also had a fridge, toaster, tea and coffee facilities and biscuits that were replenished daily and... More

Having booked a 3 night stay using a "buy 2 nights, get the 3rd free" offer on Need It Now, I ended up paying just under $240, which I felt gave me good value for money all things considered. Checkin and checkout were efficient with polite staff. The motel room had been refurbished, and I was quite impressed. There were... More

We stayed here our last night in Tassie because of the price and easy access to roads to airport. GPS (or Nav system) wouldn't take address, but it is located on the corner of West Tamar Highway and Windsor Drive. There is a stoplight. Sign says "Oasis" at the top and BWS (for beer, wine, spirits) underneath, then it says... More

Our room was very nice and we even had our room serviced unexpectedly when we stayed 2 nights. The reception staff were wonderful and so friendly. The meal at the restaurant was excellent too. Fantastic value for money. couldn't fault it.

The rooms are old and need updating. No hot water until 12pm they fixed. It was the last night of the whold trip. Bad experience. Staff was ok but the facilities were too old. Won't come back again.

My family have stayed and dined here each time we come to Tassie. The staff are friendly and helpfull always making us feel welcome. The rooms are comfy and suit our needs and budget. The restaurant is always packed and every visit (3-4 months) there is a menu change showing the enthusiasm of a great kitchen team and leader. The... More

I have travelled the world and stayed in numerous hotels for business and pleasure but this is the best service I have ever received. It was exceptional service from all staff encountered; from booking (Craig), check in (Scottie), public bar (Belle) but it didn’t stop there. The waitresses and cleaning staff also went well above and beyond what you would... More

Our room had been sprayed with something (air freshner, fly spray - don't know) but we had to leave all the doors and windows open just to make the room bearable to stay in. Carpet was badly stained and the room overall needed to be updated. Apart from the points just mentioned, the beds were comfortable and rooms were clean.... More

A little out of the city but clean and tidy and good value. The rooms from outside look a little dated but inside was fine. Bath room was very clean I always rate this as very important to enjoyment of stay, we were only there one night and were after a nice clean affordable stay without having to any distance... More
