Very Good

The staff were were very helpful and polite. The room was clean and the position of the Travel Lodge is fantastic close to everything all walking distance
The rooms are a little run down. The location in regards to Port Arthur penal settlement is outstanding. All staff that I met were wonderful. Probably best described as budget accommodation where you pay a bit more for the excellent location.
Great location literally next to Port Arthur Historical Site. Beautiful view and friendly staff.
We had dinner at the restaurant which was also very nice.
Will surely go back if visit Port Arthur again.
Everything was ok without being over the top. Would consider staying again but at ground level. No steps and parking outside the room.

Perfect location for Port Arthur visit. Carpark is somewhat pokey. Room was fine but couldnt help noticing the window & frame needed a good clean. Housekeeping ladies were lovely.
