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.

Admiralty Inn
Good location and friendly price. It is an old property, need some renovations, as it has some wears and tears. Staff was friendly. It doesn't have shower gel, so you need to bring your own.
