We stayed there the night before the great ocean road half marathon as we were running in it. We were concerned about where we would park our car on the morning as the bus picked us up at skenes creek bust stop which is 1km away from the motel. The host kindly offered to let us leave our car at the motel and then go out a back way so we could drive home rather that waiting for the great ocean road to reopen. This was very helpful to us as we were able to drive home earlier than expected.

Fabulous view of the ocean, great spot. Comfortable beds, nice and clean.

Mt, Australia

Great location, by the beach and a few minutes drive into Apollo Bay Very clean and everything works

Steve, Australia

It was a comfortable bed. Best shower in a hotel in a year. Small fridge was cold and ready to use. View was a good view of the ocean. Rooms are all fram old brick style building. Painted nice but not decorated. Quiet due to the cement wall but cold feeling. Luckily it was a cool night because no air-conditioner or heater in the room. All in all it was a basic room and comfortable. it was clean and the bed comfortable.

Joyce (the manager) was very friendly and helpful at Check-In/Check-Out. Ocean view room was excellent - clean, comfortable and well equipped. Couldn't ask for anything more?

Rod, Australia

Located on Great Ocean Road with stunning Ocean views. Accommodation really good. We dined in the restaurant and the meal was excellent.

Friendly staff and location off street parking and red dog

The excellent view across green grassy slopes to the ocean. The owner could not have gone further out of her way to make me feel "at home". As a local, she was able to confidently tell me about the area. Great home-cooked evening meal at affordable price. Easy access and car parking available right at the unit door. Lovely birds to watch in the evening and morning. As a relatively new owner, she is working on upgrades.

눉Rooms not serviced, we were told they wouldn't disturb us so we could make our own beds. Hair dryer blew cold air. No complimentary shampoo etc (there was one tiny soap). One towel each for the three night stay. Had to wash dishes in the bathroom basin. I wouldn't stay there again!
눇Fabulous view of the ocean, great spot. Comfortable beds, nice and clean.

“Nice stay in a location out of town.”

눉No internet was huge. Even tho it stated there was on the information we read. Closes office at 8pm. Which is when most of us want to get to a hotel and not take from our day. Pretty far out from the city. But its close to some roads to go into the park. The general feel we were inconveniencing the people for being there at 9. We were ready to head on down the road. Cost is a bit high for all those reasons.
눇It was a comfortable bed. Best shower in a hotel in a year. Small fridge was cold and ready to use. View was a good view of the ocean. Rooms are all fram old brick style building.

눉It was over priced. Yes except for the location nothing was good about it and room was very tiny. Felt as if we were sleeping on the street. No regular room service unless we ask for that's a shame, it was not worth it my money. Was very disappointed.

눉No complaints with the property - it's excellent, but I object to being 'ripped off' by Booking.com - I paid $66.00 over the standard rate I'd have been charged, if I'd just walked in off the street! I don't mind paying a little extra to have the comfort of knowing my accommodation is confirmed ahead of arrival, but I think this "booking fee" is 'over the top'. I shall be wary in future!
