Proximity to Spirit of Tasmania. I was informed I would get a cheaper rate if direct motel contact but the quote was $20 more than online. No thanks.

Great overnight stay for catching the ferry. Supplied plates, bowls, cutlery and microwave if you want to do a quick self catered breakfast before you leave. A little bit noisy but that was our neighbours not the hotel's fault. Dinner was great and so conveniently close. Overall I would recommend.
