Guest Reviews
- Steve (6/5): had a nice etsy beautifull old town ,but had a bit of hassle getting into unit , - location was untidy out side and bit run down
- Peter (6/5): Good location but needs to improve on cleanliness. - Location Room was dirty. I had to empty the rubbish bin upon arrival.
- Mike (6/5): Refer above. - The location and the price. The checking in procedure was difficult as there were no keys left for us. We eventually were directed to some spare keys outside but they were difficult to use and kept sticking in the lock. We were so worried about being locked out that we stored our bags in our vehicle when we left the room. The fridge was filthy and the thought of using it was unappealing. There was one tiny sample of body wash left for use. One of the electric blankets didn’t work on some of the coldest nights on record.
- Desmond (6/5): Stuck in the 80's - Great location in the middle of town. Old and tired and requires an update.
- Prudence (8/5): One Night in a comfortable cute little town - Clean and comfortable friendly hosts cute town went to the Goal a walk along the river and the Richmond Arms pub for lunch and dinner and drinkies also had a coffee from around the corner from the Coachman Arms Not Available

- Todd (8/5): Lovely stay in town. Value for money. - It’s in the middle of town, close to the pub, cafes and bakeries.
- John (9/5): The ideal spot for our short stay but modern rather than olde world. - Very clean, spacious and modern and very well situated. It is quite stark and very brightly lit, not particularly cosy
- Paul (8/5): First stop on our Tasmania tour - Great location within easy walking distance to all the main attractions in Richmond. Good facilities, free parking, and a great host.
- Hannah (8/5): Very good -
- David (8/5): Nice compact little unit with all needs covered and in a great location. - Nice comfy little unit- well appointed. Walking distance to most of Richmond town centre. Just a little more attention to cleaning.
- Annette (8/5): Enjoyable - Well appointed kitchen. The towels were very thin.
- Sue (8/5): Pleasant stay - The facility met our needs as an overnight stopping point while sightsee traveling.
The owner was friendly and helpful. No WiFi, although to be fair I didn't double check this was available before booking.
- Melissa (8/5): Great value,good location,clean and warm - Quiet, warm, comfy bed, large shower, parking at the door, great heating, nice decor. Tight car parking, ok for little cars.
- Steve (9/5): Superb -
- Beverley (7/5): Great place for a stopover - Great location close to the centre and easy walking distance from most things.
Easy to find and get in. Parking available at front of room. Personally, I found the pillows a little uncomfortable but that’s just a preference. And while the main areas were clean - floor, basin, benchtop, sheets - some areas could be better - base of toilet, top corners of shower.
- Ing (8/5): Very good - The host is friendly and humorous; his lab retriever was jolly and adorable! The shower was large and I like that they provided a laundry rack. The room was comfortable and the bedside table had drawers for storage. There was a limited space for food preparation. The carpet was dated and the towel rack was wobbly.
- Helene (6/5): Pleasant - Nice location. Nothing.

- Grant (7/5): Good -
- Dawn (10/5): Thank you David for your kindness and consideration. - A hidden gem a home away from home. Nothing
- Sophie (9/5): Superb - The property was spacious, clean, and located in the centre of Richmond. The facilities were perfect for a short stay and there was a small courtyard to enjoy a morning coffee.
- Clare (5/5): Great location, but could be better. - Only two things we loved about this place.
1. Location - so close to the main town and walking distance to everything you could possibly need.
2. The little outdoor private courtyard. Everything was super old and bad quality. The towels in particular were super old, thin and pilling. (I wouldn’t even offer them to guests in my home). The free toiletries were bad quality also. This place needs a serious remodel / refresh.
- Louise (8/5): Great location . Comfortable and warm. - The location was great . It was warm and beds were comfortable. Unusual aroma . sure if it was coming from large trees outside.
- Cheryl (9/5): Short stay - The location, clean and comfortable. Close to town. Great place for a couple of days No WiFi, we had a microwave, crockery and cutlery, frying pan but no stove.
- Dawn (10/5): Awesome - Quite convenient and pleasant Nothing

- Julie (9/5): Superb -
- Rach (9/5): Superb -
- Wheresdale (6/5): disappointing at best - Middle of town Very very basic for the price. Needs an update. Someone could have mentioned everything closes before 8pm and I mean everything. Not a thing to eat and the staff couldnt help me in any way.
- Joyce (10/5): Exceptional -
- Haydn (9/5): Superb -
- Darren (8/5): Great value for money and great location - Property had everything you need.
- Carol (8/5): Very good - Clean, comfortable and very well equipped with everything you might need. Unit 2 had a queen bed and a single bed so was a little cramped, ok for a couple and a child but maybe not for 3 adults. Private courtyard with outdoor furniture was a real bonus with lots of birds singing in the trees. Location was excellent, on the main street and walking distance to shops, cafes and pub. Only negative was the pillows which need replacing.
- Valerie (7/5): Good -
- Carol (8/5): Ok for the price - Location was great. Heating inadequate was cold and took forever to heat the room cleaning could of been a little better comfy bed nice to have chairs to sit in instead of the bed. No wifi

The accommodation was walking distance to specialty shops, the pub (for meals) the bakery and IGA. The studio was comfortable with all that you need. More hooks in the bathroom would have been useful.

Free on-site parking Bathroom floor corners were dirty
Towels are worn out
- Deborah (8/5): Great Value for money - The motel is in a great location, in the heart of beautiful Richmond, with all the shops and eateries just a few steps away. Free parking. Value for money. Best accommodation in our whole trip to Tasmania. We didn't have a single issue or problem with anything. It was a very easy, smooth experience and a great place to stay.
- Jenny (8/5): Lovely quiet place and just a short walk to everything. - Quiet location on the Main Street and short walk to everything needed. Comfortable and welcoming. No WiFi, but at least we knew that before staying. It was lovely to have a coffee plunger pot, but it would have been good to have this listed, rather than just tea/coffee making, so that we could have been prepared.
- Lisa (8/5): Very good -
- Jean (8/5): Very good - Great location, obliging hosts and comfortable rooms l
- Stanley (10/5): An extremely wonderful place to relax at a reasonable price. - Roomy, comfortable, good position, clean, extras and great to have your own courtyard. N/A
- Jean (8/5): Very good - Great location, staff were obliging, room comfortable and contained all amenities
- Garry (6/5): No aircon no fan if you want to be able to stay cool? - . There was no air-conditioning it was hot and close/airless and muggy in the room. The air smoke quality with local bushfires and wind left it impossible to leave the screen door locked/open to cool the room.
We were shocked that not only was there no aircon but no fan either. It made the night uncomfortable. This a strange arrangement. The beds had blankets and covers in summer, nothing to keep cool though.
- Bruce (6/5): Convenient location . - Good location in town, close to everything. No air-conditioning and nights were hot.
- David (9/5): Superb -
- Danny (9/5): Great facility - We prepared breakfast in-room Everything was great
- John (8/5): Very good - Clean quiet room, helpful staff
- Jackie (5/5): Could have been soo much better - Right in the centre of Richmond. Not very clean, needs a thorough deep clean, pillow case should have been white, but where discoloured. hard to find reception and once l did find it, they took a while to come to the door
- Marco (8/5): Very good - Great location and friendly host. Bed could be more comfy.
- Kaye (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lindy (10/5): Was good, just the smell of a meat smoker spoilt it. - Close to facilities Smell of smoked sausage or meat coming in the room at night. Made it uncomfortable to sleep.
- Paul (6/5): Fair and reasonable - the general ambience could be improved - Location & quiet Disappointed that the tiled floors were neither swept or mopped. ( We used the provided dustpan to sweep up the floor dirt)
- Drwalrus (9/5): Great worth a look - Great spot, close to places of interest.
- Megan (10/5): Peaceful, beautiful courtyard/garden, close to everything, friendly host. - Peaceful, beautiful courtyard/garden, close to everything, friendly host.
