“The Inn stands a short walk from Geelong's central shopping area and the waterfront, which I consider a genuine advantage. Its family-friendly focus, with options for cribs and extra beds, is worth considering for those travelling with children. While some past guests mention needed updates, the on-site restaurant holds an award, which speaks to a reliable level of quality.”
