Time Out

It was Great that we received a free upgrade to have a room with a view of the Bay and the Big Wheel. The Bed was comfortable and Clean but the motel room needs to abit off attention to freshen it up as well as some maintenance. But we would stay there again for price and location.

Carpet was dirty, blood on my pillow slip, no hot water on the first night. The coffee cups were stained. No washing up facilities for what dishes that were there. Black hair was on the bathroom floor. They have a microwave, heat up your meal and only have a small tea spoon or a knife to eat with. 5 star prices for 1 star facilities.

Very noisy and cigarette smoke in the room, despite being listed as a smoke free property. Manager not interested in taking any action about noisy people. He was plain rude and lives over an hour away and only prepared to come to the property in the afternoon. Terrible experience never to be repeated.

Stairs no lift, no pamphlets to tell us where things were in Geeelong or for different food entries, no remote for tellie. Luckily we were out most of the stay and came in tired, so no need for tellie only would have been nice to find out tennis scores, which we eventually did after having a bit of patience without using the remote.

Great Location

This property was in a great location, with close proximity to the beach, but also walking distance to town for dinner. The room was comfortable for our family, and perfect for our short stay.
