We only stayed one night at Seacroft, so can’t comment much on facilities but for somewhere to rest your head along the Great Ocean Road you couldn’t ask for much more - stunning views right outside your door, clean rooms and incredibly comfy beds plus decently good self serve tea and coffee. We loved our stay !!

This should be called a family hostel. Sharing a bathroom is a full bathroom for every 2 rooms, not for 22 rooms. Shower at 10pm was totally cold water.

It's in a good location, 15mins from Apollo Bay . No change of towels was disappointing. No TV didn't bother me, wifi okay, not great. Shared toilet and showers. I don't think i would stay again.

The room was tidy. I loved the location and how peaceful it was until night time - see below The only downer were the people staying next to me were so noisy and loud until 11pm. I am pleased I only stayed 1 night. The walls are thin and I could hear everything!! That`s the reason for 3 stars

Room is in very poor conditions, super soft matress, and pillows, only one pillow each bed. Sound proof is zero, you need to make it more clear guests need to bring their own shampoo and body wash, if the closest grocery store is 18km away
