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.

Wyndham Resort Torquay
The pool area was amazing. Rooms were clean and tidy. Ocean view room very noisy with road traffic. I would select a pool view room next time.

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.
