Hotel berhampiran The Penny Pincher Shop, Burnie

I stayed in room 6 Before i could even check into my hotel room, It was discussed and agreed upon that someone would be waiting at the hotel for my late check in. I arrived at 9;15pm, pub was completely locked up and shut.... I rang the 2 numbers on the door went strait to voicemail, my employer rang the number he was given... Went straight to voice mail, the security guard who saw me waiting in the rain freezing cold, called the number he had and still went to voicemail, which left me no other option but to book in somewhere else after i've already organised and paid for that room. Outside lobby area carpet smelt like piss, My room was unclean (cockroaches in bowls and cups that were left for me to 'use', windows have no fly screen... It lets big blowflies in, at night the windows let mozzies in. If you shut the windows you end up really sick like me, and having to go to the chemist to get something to clear out my sinuses from the mould and mouldy smell. Bathroom vanity taps did not stop leaking, dripped all night and day. Timber around vanity was rotted at bottom and wood was stripping, shower head and stem was on the wrong way around so i couldn't adjust it, bed was very uncomfortable and stunk, ii had to spray the entire room with glen 20 and even stripped the bed and flipped the mattress which didn't help at all) after approaching staff and management from the hotel with my concerns, i was told that ”the rooms are cheap so you have to come down to front desk and tell staff when you want linen changed and room cleaned (this was after 6 days) After approaching manager on 7th day she told me, that they only change the sheets every 7 days, not to mention I only had 1 pillow and it smelt like every head on Australia had rubbed on it. I highly advise against staying in particularly room 6, if you have a tent you're better to stay in there.

If you are staying for one or two nights then this hotel is a good option. The rooms are large, clean and the bed is was very comfortable. It is basic, some of the rooms have been updated, some have not. I had a ‘budget’ room but it was well equipped. Air conditioning is mainly through the door frame. The hotel is in a quiet area and you can walk down by the river or to the beach in a few minutes. On the downside, the restaurant was closed indefinitely. There was a loud rooster nearby that fired up at 4.30am every day as an early alarm clock. There were a lot of contractors staying so the Ute’s firing up and idling at 6am served as the second alarm call! If I was passing through on a shorter stay I would stop again but for anything longer I would try elsewhere.

If your looking good for a horizontal surface to sleep on tick and it was ok, quishy bathroom tick and that extends to the shower floor(no idea how) staff were ok, hoons in the pub carpark late at night not so much. Cleaning little bit to be desired as I know none of my har is that long in the bathroom A decent Reno probably be the best idea but I'm tipping it won't be done

We had a wonderful stay in apartment 1. The whole booking experience was super easy with Matt and the apartment was clean spacious felt like a home there moment we walked it. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and the wifi was included, reliable and fast. There were lots of little touches in the apartment to make it welcoming and it is centrally located to everything you need in town. The bathroom is accessibility friendly so there’s a shower and toilet beside each other but we knew this when we booked. The view out the main windows is stunning. Would have loved the decorative fireplace to work but understand why it’s not. The reverse air con and big cosy bed kept us warm and toastee. If you are a couple and are staying in Penguin, then look no further than this apartment. We had such a great stay. Thanks

Very good view, room 1 is good. I original booked Spa room, But it next to reception, And it bit noise, So I change it to sea view room.
