Unfortunately the noise from room 3 was only interrupted by a domestic dispute from an adjacent hotel room. The manager did well trying to address what sounded like a substance issue, but my family were very intimidated from this incident. The toilet in room 3 continued to run, otherwise everything else was ok. The main bed was not comfortable - it was not a good night's sleep overall. Plenty of crockery was available in the room, including a microwave and toaster. Hot water was sufficient, and the (mini) fridge was very cold/effective. Overall a negative experience but the staff tried their best.

It was a convenient place to stay when visiting the Great Ocean Road and surrounds. The room was clean and bed was fairly comfortable. The only slight annoyance was the sound of trucks due to hotel location.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Beds were uncomfortable but that could be our preference so we didn’t take off anything for that. There were lots of cobwebs and the fridge was situated on a rickety bit of wood which was fairly unstable. The pool area was good, and generally the property grounds were clean but we were in a corner so litter built up around our unit. Overall it was ok for a few nights cheap stay but really cobwebs in the wardrobe and bathroom should not be expected no matter the level of price.

It was good place for quick one night stay. There was only one set of towels which was not enough. We have to move the bed so my kid would not fall, but it meant it was quite dirty under the bed. I hope they can clean that up. Other than that, for this Christmas time, it was safe and convenient place to stay to drive to great ocean road

This property, even though basic, was very clean, the rooms were spacious and it was very comfortable. The recently renovated bathrooms were very well done. (If in one of the end rooms, it did take a long time for the hot water to heat up in the shower.) Comfortable beds and a peaceful sleep was had. Highly recommended for a comfortable stay in Colac.

Convenient for one night just passing through Colac. Room was fine as was the bathroom, the only slight annoyance the passing of trucks on the main road the motel sits on. However, only a few minutes walk to a variety of eateries on the main drag through town.
