The rooms were spacious, easy check in. Needed extra pillows which we asked for and they brought them to the room. Was an easy walk to the city so a good location.

It had good views and a handy location. The check-out instructions mentioned a drop-box for keys but I didn't see it. I just put them back in the lock-box. There are only 6 rooms on the ground floor and lots of stairs so be prepared to carry your luggage up them. No extra blanket or pillows, or face cloths. Very old building with a poorly executed cosmetic update. All week before our arrival, I kept getting messages asking for photo ID to make sure it was us checking in. I thought this was scam email because I've worked in hotels and stayed in many and this has never been required before. I ignored all those messages and was able to check-in successfully. If those messages are from the hotel, they need to stop sending them.

Room was clean and had what we needed. Checking in after reception had closed was simple and easy. Glad we arrived in time to access a car park on the premises, would've stressed if all the parks were full as only limited on-site parking.

The premises looked very unloved with torn carpet on the stairs one of the first things you see. Every step had badly torn carpet. The walls were marked everywhere and the noise levels of slamming doors was consistent throughout the night. We booked here as a last resort 3 days before we needed somewhere to stay in Hobart. Next time this happens, we will pay the extra $$ rather than stay at Blue Hills. We stayed there around 20 years ago and had good memories of it then. Those good memories have now been erased!!

Work in progress, budget friendly

The place is being done up, it's a work in progress. It's secure and comfy enough. Some spray and wipe, and a shower curtain wouldn't hurt.

It served its purpose; however, it was very unclean. The sheets were clean though. Also, during the night it was very noisy. A vacuum cleaner going late in the evening. They were NOT vacuuming our room.

Bio hazard alert

I have to say this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It is a bio-hazard waiting to happen. The filth was astounding. Even if a room is cheap it should be clean. Blood on wall tiles in bathroom, toothpaste over taps, smears of who knows what and hair over shower walls. Brown smears on side table and bed head,dirt and grime in floors. Window broken so didn't shut properly. Room was freezing and no electric blanket or additional blankets. Disgusting and would not ever recommend ! Have countless photos but they wouldn't upload
