Leisure Inn Penny Royal Hotel & Apartments
"Great stay. Clean and comfortable and staff were helpful giving us good advice on local dining options. Really good value. Only thing to mention was that the toilet made loud whistling noises (pressure issue?) which was very disturbing at night."

Peppers Silo Launceston
"There should be a better menu for room service, with more options. Also the tea leaves area good idea but when you have to wait for the tea to seep to drink it and then do it all over again for the second person it’s not worth it."
