Our room, although the decor was rather dated, was clean & comfortable, rooms were spacious. All that you could need for an overnight stay. More

Swansea is a small seaside town with not a lot of scope for accommodation. I have rated this Motor Inn as "terrible" for the following reasons: The receptionist on duty gave us a key to view a potential room. On entry the bed looked slept in, and there were dirty dishes on a side table. When advised of the condition... More

We stayed for 2 nights and were very pleased with our room which was spacious and clean with a lovely view over the bay. The bathroom was a bit dated but perfectly serviceable. The staff were very friendly and helpful with recommendations as to where to eat. More

The location is beautiful with room access direct to the beach. Friendly staff, good clean rooms and a bit more character than many motels. No restaurant but it is a very small town and nice walk to several eating places. More

While the staff were friendly, the motel is long past it's use by date. One of our rooms was on the sea side, so the view was great but the bathroom was falling apart and full of mould. My room was on the rear side and very run down. Cheap but I wouldn't stay there again. More

Right on the beach, the friendliest of staff who knew all the best locations in Tasmania to visit and very nice accommodation. The building is a bit dated but our room had just been renovated and was good value for money overlooking the beautiful bay. We stayed three nights as the location is very central for touring and we looked... More

The portacot we ordered was old and well used and not really something I would have provided it was definetly... More

This motor inn has a great location and the owners very kind, and we had an upstairs room facing the water, the best view of all of the places we stayed in Tasmania. We stayed two nights here. There's a great walk as you leave the hotel toward the beach which we took the dogs on (the owners invite you... More

A nice peaceful spot overlooking the changing moods and colours of Oyster Bay with distant views of Freycinet. Our two day stay saw great views from our windows ranging from calm seas and skies in lovely grey greens and blues changing to angry skies with black billowy clouds. It's a good alternative to staying at Coles Bay with its inflated... More
