Check in was great. Allowed me to access the room earlier and she was helpful. However, on entry to the room it was filthy. A large hairball in the entry, shower was black with mould and the door to the shower was broken so barely hanging on. The top part of the shampoo holder fell off and missed my toe by centimetres. The towels were threadbare (could literally see through them) and the bed sheets were so hard they were crispy. The curtains were missing most of their hooks so we were awake at sunrise due to the light. We had to dodge a collection of trolleys leading up the stairs and piles of rubbish. And to top off the experience, there was a family of pigeons who spent the entire night doing what pigeons do...loudly.

This is our go to hotel now when we visit Geelong. Perfect location, spotlessly clean and has everything we need. We did have a glitch with power this visit (there is a sign requesting not to use kettle with toaster etc which we ensured) but the staff were very helpful.

The first room hadn't been cleaned. Got another one which was ok. The property looks very tired. There was a draught coming through the window. If this was supposed to be an 8 should be more like a 6

The room was unclean and behind and under bed was dust and dirt also left over stuff from others.There was mold in bathroom. The shower was dirty and only had a trickle of water.The towels had blood on them. Also nil soap. The outside did not look like the image on internet they need to update it to a dirty green pool and untidy areas outside. I hope they improve their quality for others.Before someone gets sick. It is a HEALTH risk.

There were no staff when we arrived at 1:50pm, just a sign on the door to call a number. The cleaner had to come and check us in & didn’t seem very happy about it. She asked us to give her a few mins to vac the room (would have thought this would have been done since check in was 2pm). The dust under the bed was so thick, we took a photo of it as we couldn’t believe it. They’d obviously never moved the bed. Room was average. Beds were not comfortable either. The location was the best thing about it. Close to shops and restaurants.

Room was dirty. Broken curtain. Felt like I was in a run down broken hotel. Bathroom seemed ok but spider webs near windows didn’t make me feel like I wanted to stay there. You get what you pay for sometimes.
