This was our first trip to Geelong and Geoff made us feel very welcome. Great motel, clean and very comfy beds. Had a great nights sleep, and complimentary breakfast too! Would definitely recommend to other travellers.

We recently had a catch-up with friends in Geelong and certainly chose the right accommodation. We discovered the Motor Inn was under new ownership, the new hosts were lovely - very helpful with motoring directions, thanks heeps Graeme. Our suite was very clean, comfortable and warm - loved the crisp white sheets!!!. The complimentary breaky was a nice treat also.

Recently stayed. Great bonus breakfast. Great new owners, very friendly and helpful. Thanks for letting us have an early check in and an early check out...Clean, comfortable units. The new owners are to be commended for their attitude and achievements so far! All the best for the winter and good luck with the business.

We stayed for the weekend in Feb 2012 and found the rooms to be clean, comfortable and quiet. The new owners were friendly and very helpful when we arrived without a portacot. Thanks Geoff !
