This 50s style hotel is excellent value for money. Although not modern and stylish, the room contains all the aspects for a comfortable stay plus there is an additional common room with full facilities for preparing and eating meals

Whilst this is no Taj Mahal, everything was fine for a place to rest your head after a long day on the frothies. Staff were excellent from check-in to leaving, they couldn't have been friendlier or welcoming.

The window to the ensuite leads on to a hallway inside the motel?? Overall I did have a good stay here, considering the very low price I paid. Value for money - this place nails it. It's pretty close to the Launceston CBD, has excellent parking, and the room was clean & bed comfy. Weirdest bathroom configuration I've ever encountered and would not recommend if you're sensitive. I have no complaints about staying here, and would come back if I was broke. Thank you team!

Easy access to the CBD. Parking close to accommodation. Hotel was fully booked which is Great. Downside was we got the last room available which has a shared bathroom. Hasn't been a problem previously. No toilet paper in the Woman's bathroom, Shower was out of order. Not advised at check in. No light bulb in the Male Bathroom. What are maintenance doing? Meals were generally well priced except for the Tassie Scallops. $35 way over the odds for a dozen button sized scallops meagre salad and chips. .

Our original room had a shower that didn't drain adequately and we couldn't find a remote to a TV that we could've get to work (even when we found the operation buttons... so they down-graded our room to one without an on-suite. When taking into account the age of the property, the rooms are very nice. The staff are very friendly and couldn't apologise enough and were very helpful.

A little road noise where we were but not late into the night. Staff were great. Location great. Price great. Meals great. Negatives: Lots of stairs to the rooms. Window in our room was a bit loose and let in the cool air and road noise. But I would stay there again.

Convenient location. Room was basic, but clean. Bed was comfortable, but there was no A/C, so ventilation was a little poor. No noise from the bar below, but a busy street outside was very noisy for much of the day (not late at night though, thankfully). A good blind kept out the worst of the afternoon sun and the bright street light outside.

Staff screamed at us for coming in the only available door into the bar. There was no reception desk. Just the bar. Extreme rude and unhelpful. Accommodation was fine. Would recommend others don't go there just based on the horrible staff.

Response from TRC Hotel on 20 Sept 2021
Yes, one of our staff members did call out to (not shout at) you, as you were about to walk through an adequately signaged Gaming Room with minors, to say you couldn't go through that area and to come around to the bar were we could then direct you to our reception area. There are two entrances into the bar area, one from the main street and one from the rear car park, not one as stated in your review. It was also explained to you when you said the foyer door should be unlocked that due to Covid-19 restrictions and the need to get all patrons to sign/check in that that is why only two main doors are accessible at the present time. I apologise that you felt staff simply doing their job was rude and unhelpful.

Good value for money accommodation
Staf were really pleasant and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Plenty of hot water for showering although both basin and shower base were annoyingly slow to drain. The guest lounge was comfortable and well equipped. Overall I was pleasantly surprised and believe the accommodation was good value for the price.
