I would not give it a rating or stay. As I wanted to book two rooms for 2 people with disabilities and noticed the stairs, I rang the property. I was told they had rooms where there would only be a couple of stairs, so I booked the rooms.on arriving at the property, I saw how many stairs there were into each room, they had also booked us into two rooms in the main house with over twenty stairs. I rang the owners, who had already taken the money out of my credit card and refused to give even a partial refund. The male owner then abused me over the phone, I was so upset that I hung up.

The property had walls so thin i could hear all the guests conversations on the top level. I phoned the hotel before making booking and explained i have a walking disability but was told there will be only 4 stairs into hotel room. That is a lie, there is 6 stairs to reception level and then 20 to the level we needed to be on. The room was dirty. Bed uncomfortable and only 1 pillow that was flat. I had to use my jumper as a pillow cause nothing else.provided.

The room was very small, just able to accommodate the queen bed. The bathroom was tiny, like an elongated telephone booth. The fan in the bathroom Tastic didn't work. The sliding door to the bathroom covered the GPO when in the open position. The fridge (also tiny) freezer compartment was iced up and unusable. The stair access to our room (12) exceeded 15 steps in a single flight and I doubt would comply with BCA. There was no sound insulation between the rooms. At $147/night the room was ridiculously overpriced. I expect that Amos House will be the most disappointing accommodation of our 2 week road tour around Tasmania.

Good location centrally in Swansea. An older style hotel but you get what you expect and what you pay for so it was comfy and convenient for the night. We had a minor maintenance issue when we checked into our room and the owner was apologetic and helpful in moving us to another one.

I got really frustrated trying to cancel before the deadline, because we were not able to get there. I ended up having to pay for it although we couldn't use it.
