Quest Waterfront Serviced Apartments - Hobart

This Motel and all lodging in Australia is way over priced!! There is nothing at any number of stars under $100 per night! This Motel was the highest priced of the week !!!~~ It was comfortable, quality linens and towels, but very noisy. Advertised as WI FI in the room ..believe me there is NOT! Signal is very weak and did not connect but every second or two. Larger downloads would not work at all. There was an electric heater in the room but not plugged in and NO instructions as to how to turn it on. For some strange reason Aussies have an ON /OFF switch on every single receptacle. On most you can tell if it is on but some You cannot. so that was a factor in trying to turn the heater on as it got rather chilly in the room before dawn.

I wanted an inexpensive motel within a reasonable distance of downtown Hobart. The bus stop was 10 minutes walk from the hotel, and once on the bus it takes 11 minutes to get into Hobart. I was pleasantly surprised with the number and convenience of the electric plugs in the room. WiFi worked well. Cooking facilities were also a plus. There is a refrigerator and microwave in the room, and a common kitchen area with stoves. Laundry facilities were sort of an afterthought, but were perfectly adequate. A bit of a walk to the nearest grocery store. I would stay there again.

We throughly enjoyed our stay! It was cold and rainy during our visit, but the wood stove was great! Loved it when the wallabys visited our cabin in the evening!

We enjoyed our stay at Salamanca Terraces. The location is great and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The only ding is the Internet service. I hate having to pay by the day or hour for something that should be included.
