    Budget motel. I was delighted to find something i thought didn't exist - A nicely furnished room that was neutral but had character by the clever use of patterns and textures with the furnishings and artwork that didn't look like mass produced...

    Location was okay. Nothing real close other than one cafe. We drove to dinner downtown Geelong.

    Overnight stopover en-route to a sporting event. Late check in had a slight hiccup with a locked door, but the owner had no problems whatsoever in letting me into my room with a happy greeting and smile in the rain & cold, First class service!!
