It’s never a good look when you pull back the covers of the bed to reveal someone else’s hair. Sitting on the toilet was a rocky event as it wasn’t securely attached to the floor. A very roughly done bathroom upgrade has it looking grimy and icky. No tv remote and the first room I asked to get moved from was mouldy and stinky. Convenient to spirit of Tasmania terminal but if you want some sleep stay somewhere else as it’s super noisy here too.

Excellent older style motel, spotlessly clean. Comfortable king sized bed. Tea/coffee provided, microwave, fridge, toaster & breakfast crockery/cutlery. Rooms 23-25 are the quietest as they are off the main road. Curry on Corio serves excellent Indian food and is located in the football of nearby Corio Village shopping centre. Motel is 6 minutes away from the Spirit of Tasmania terminal.
