Rydges Geelong
The room was clean and spacious. The only gripe was the air conditioning. It wouldn't go lower than 19 degrees and the room felt so stuffy and humid. Wehad a very restless night and our babies couldnt settle.

Eden Oak Geelong
Lovely spot, spacious architectural purpose built design in 1985. A time piece in a different part of Geelong. Good for young families. Lovely Thai food. Reasonably quiet.

Admiralty Inn
Spider webs hanging from ceiling and lamps. Carpet was grossly stained as well as the sofa. We just did not like to walk without shoes on this carpet and sit on the sofa.
