9/10 Wonderful! (284 reviews)
Enjoyed our stay at Changes. Very central to the city. Plenty of space in the apartment however in a kitchen of that size there were no extra bits and pieces eg salt and pepper, oil, kitchen papers or small dishes. The outlook was great over the city but just be aware that often on the weekend Fri and Sat night that Launceston apparently has an institution called “blockies” where idiots drive continually around the city block revving their engines and being a general nuisance. This went on till 2 am and in conjunction with the music blasting from a nearby club we got little sleep. I personally would stay at this hotel again but never on a weekend night ever!!

great room, so big - would have been nice if it had had a small table and chairs so you didn't have to sit on the bed. and a small couch would have fit in also! you only get a view of the carpark if you don't pay extra for the silo rooms but the size of the room makes up for it. A bit remote from cafes etc so a small microwave would be nice so you could heat your food or drinks when you finally get them back, but there is a cafe in the park next door, open in the morning- fantastic stay
