I had rang day before our arrival to let them know we wouldn't be arriving until after 6pm but before 7pm. It showed on website office hours were until 9pm. When I rang there was only an option to leave a message. No one returned my call. When we arrived at the property the reception was locked and in darkness. There were phone numbers on the door so I rang the number for the property and the manager answered, he seemed surprised no one was in reception to assist with check in but told me he would arrange something. After a 5-10 minute wait a girl came to give me the key for our room while on the phone to managed. After she got off the phone she told me she didn't even work there but showed us the direction to our room. Our room was clean and comfortable and close to main cbd. Also was reasonably priced. Have stayed here before and will again. They just need to improve the later check in process.

Older style motel. Good: Good value and location. Not-so-good: Stayed three nights – Fri/Sat/Sun – but never received any housekeeping (despite amenities saying 'daily'). Some in-room crockery was unclean (needed a wash before use). A leftover jumper in drawer and charging cable plugged into wall from previous guest(s). Gives the impression that there is minimal attention to cleanliness.

Worth for the price but quite old and has not renovated or upgraded for a while in my opinion. The place was convenient as it was 2 mins walk to the Geelong water front and 7mins walk to shopping mall and restaurants. Overall the experience was okey. If you plan a budget trip this is okey but, not for luxury.

Great Location. Comfy bed Air Conditioner kept changing to cool causing the room to become freezing in the middle of the night. Showerhead was broken so it was more like showering under your garden tap. Room was clean but the whole place is old, worn out and poorly maintained.
