Our room was lovely. Very clean and tidy. Well equipped with everything you could need. Met the host briefly upon arrival, but it was a self check in, which we liked. Basic breakfast provided, which was a great added inclusion. We would definitely stay there again.

Booking for the property was quick and we received instant notification. It is situated in a quiet area with character homes close by. You can access all areas of the city easily. Swimming pool is near by. We would recommend this as a place to choose to stay.

Beautiful place to stay in Launceston. Room was clean and very well maintained. Morning breakfast was excellent. Launceston is quite hilly and this is right at the top as the name suggests, but very convenient to the city. 5 star

Beautiful old building, but room was a disappointment for the price. Bathroom was clean but very dated probably 1980's.
Did not receive text about access or breakfast times but i had trouble with i messages at the time. Breakfast was good and breakfast server was very accommodating when I wanted breakfast early. Bed was very comfortable but light coming through the blind helped me get a bad nights sleep. Being Launceston one would expect a heater in the bathroom but there wasn't one. No information in the room on how to operate the heater or breakfast times etc. Overheard a guest saying heater didn't work until I told them about the switches inside. Overall a bit disappointed at this premium price point.

This was a beautiful building to stay in. Check in was clear and easy. The room was spacious and comfortable.
The only downside was the internet extender didn't work in our room and the breakfast was cleaned up at 9am instead of 930am on our first morning. Not a big, but when on holidays, we like to have a slower paced morning :)

We had a two bedroom apartment, big rooms, would be good to have a couple of lounge chairs to sit in, and a wardrobe would be nice. Everything else was very good
