Guest Reviews

• Van lith (1/5): -
• Roger (8/5): - Good location , within walking distance to beach front and shops. Bathroom was a bit small but ok.
• David (10/5): -
• Cassandra (5/5): - It was the perfect little room for a quick geelong stop over not sure id stay much longer but comfortable enough. Paid extra for the room because it had a spa. The spa didn't work was really disappointed. Owners responded by staying they discount the stay if I ever stayed again which why would I.. I paid extra for a spa room that dolidnt work.. id never risk that again.
• Thomas (1/5): -
• Kim (3/5): -
• Badrzadeh (6/5): - The location is 10 min walk to beach
• Wali mohammad (3/5): -
• Anita (9/5): -
• Dora (8/5): -
• Bradford (1/5): -
• Adam (6/5): - The jetted spa bath was brilliant.... Very relaxing. It is quite a laid back place to relax however it does need some furniture updates and a coat of paint here there, but I have stayed here multiple times, so it's not a huge issue for me and though I do consider it really, good value for money. John was very helpful on the phone giving instructions to check-in. This is another deskless check-in establishment. It needs an update and a bit of a cosmetic Reno, but it will be double the price when that happens, so take advantage and enjoy the low price while its there. A+ I've stayed here about 5 times in the past 2 years and on one occasion we struck a dirty apartment in the form of an unclean bathroom area. Its only happened once though but whilst I did forgive I cannot forget. It's an 80% cleanliness strike rate so it's worth the punt. Beds are not the most comfy around nor is there any wifi or smart tv and some of the vinyl cushions on the kitchen table chairs are starting to perish and some of the couches have small tears in the upholstery. It's just minor cosmetic type stuff, so if your a down to earth person that isn't going to be fussed by that then I recommend this place to you..
• Patrick (10/5): It was convenient for us - Clean Tight car park
• Peter (10/5): -
• Cathy (8/5): Great place for an overnight stay in close proximity to The Local for a great bakery brekky and morning coffee - Location and cleanliness, good air conditioning, shower and comfy bed It was clean and comfortable but basic in its styling
• Christopher (9/5): -
• Charith (8/5): -
• Josh (10/5): -
• Peter (5/5): Average - Cleanliness Way to small and not suitable for older people as it is upstairs
• Backhouse (8/5): -
• scott (1/5): -
• Gaye (9/5): -
• George (3/5): The owner has to deal with his anger issue and learn how to treat customers. - The property was clean and easy to access The owner was too rude to me. He was teaching me how to spell my own name and was shouting at me. He was disrespectful. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
• Mark (10/5): Great value for money rental property with an excellent location. - The property was exceptionally clean. The Property Manager phoned a number of times to insure I had managed to enter the property without any difficulty and if I required anything to contact him 24/7. The location was excellent and the amenities all worked well. I would highly recommend this property. N/A
• Dianne (9/5): Comfortable - Steep stair case to reach my room.
• Chris (10/5): When we stayed there overnight and didn’t make use of the facilities, although the stay was comfortable and had everythi - Easy to get to area for parking Not much to dislike everything worked out pretty well
• Nick (8/5): -

• Matt (10/5): -
• Justin (1/5): -
• Alba (8/5): Comfortable stay, convenient - Really nice apartment, well located, with parking space and very comfortable. We met the host and the cleaner and they were both very helpful. Thank you!
• Mandy (7/5): Convenient and quiet location - Ease of check in Some items in the kitchen needed replacement or repairing
• John (8/5): -
• Henderson (10/5): - Close to city centre and gmhba stadium
• Neil (8/5): Secure, clean & comfortable. - Modern, clean & comfortable. A bit harder to find & navigate into. Bathroom extraction fan didn’t work.
• Tracy (9/5): Clean well appointed facilities. John most helpful in getting me “in” to the apartment and the forms. - Walking distance to Geelong hospital, CBD and Esplanade. Great full kitchen facilities. Clean. At times the main road is quite busy but from the apartment you could not hear the traffic.
• Tanya (7/5): Good location and comfortable but check in process needs work - Good location, comfortable bed and we enjoyed the spa bath Didn’t like the check in process, waiting for SMS instructions that didn’t arrive. Had to phone when we were waiting in the driveway to find out how to get in. It had been a busy day with an unwell family member and we just wanted to get into accommodation and crash out.
• Marie (8/5): - The room was very comfortable, but one of the reasons I booked it was because they said it had a microwave. There wasn't one which I found annoying.
• KE-SHENG (3/5): - 價格偏高 沙發很髒
• Andrew (1/5): Very dissaoointjng - Nothing Was not what the photos looked like at all was tiny was small and there was no knifes or anything in the kitchen, more towels would of been nice without the additional cost along with a cot for my baby
• Thomas (10/5): There was a little mix up when we first got there, it was out not the managers fault but he was amazing to deal with got - Easy to get to and under cover parking
• iqbal (4/5): We just had to spend the night - I didn’t like the property at all but one night was ok Run down, old property, bed was not comfortable, ceiling fan was making noise and shaking , towels were old , worn out, most things are falling apart.
• John (8/5): - Communication as booking confirmation stated would be advised via SMS for access actual situation was to ring when at the property
• Adrian (5/5): Very over priced and place was dirty - Good location for what we required The pictures on the web are nothing like the small dog box with windows you couldn’t see out because of there height
• Helen (10/5): -
• Haffner (8/5): -
• Petrucci (4/5): -
• matt (9/5): -
• Matthew (1/5): Micromanaging boss meets strict invasive parent. - Nothing honestly The owner demands a separate bond. Has cameras everywhere, very micro managing. Spa didn’t work even though advertised spa. Wouldn’t compensate for price hike on a non working spa room.
• Darren (10/5): The owner was very easy to get on with 👍 - Close to the City of Geelong and nice and tidy.
• Steve (9/5): Would definitely stay here again, Great place to stay, Great host, Great location - Bed was super comfortable Ease of entry, great communication with host All was good, Only thing is, if you need a tax invoice in a hurry I'm Still awaiting tax invoice after 2 weeks, Host is telling me i need to wait till new month for invoice.
• Amanda (7/5): Adequate - Bed and pillows were comfortable Wasn’t super clean but adequate - carpets need a good deep clean and ceiling fan was filthy
• hamza (1/5): -
• Klein (4/5): - The fact you advertised the apartment as a 2 bedroom apartment fit for 4 friends was just unrealistic.
• Augustynek (4/5): Underwhelmed - Easily cleanable surfaces were clean. Air conditioning worked well. Dirty sofa, dirty curtains, tattered dining seat upholstery, rusty furniture, weeds in the garden, technology overdue for an upgrade by at least a decade. Towel rail fell off the wall whilst merely attempting to hang my towel to dry. Upon inspection, the towel rail had clearly had a dodgy repair attempt performed previously. Wear and tear in need of attention. Marked walls, and cracked plaster. Hair and grime in shower base extrusions. The apartment was in no way as pleasant as displayed in the advertisement photography. After securing my payment through the booking app, I received a phone call from management, detailing a long list of caveats that were not provided at the time of accepting the booking, including the reality, that they have multiple properties on site, and decide which one the customer will receive, which (in my case), was not as pictured. Based on what I experienced, I would consider this apartment (2B at 75 McKillop St, Golden Stays), to be realistically in the value range of $180-230 per night (I would be ashamed to charge $330+ per night, for this property).
• Bella (4/5): -
• Cullen (10/5): - Nice
• Andrea (1/5): - We where very disappointed i paid extra to get a balcony in the place was told that the place had been cleaned before we arrived and it wasn't dining table was sticky. couch is old had Stan's on it my partner saw a cotcouch the tea,& coffee was in a plactuc container Also the Rules on the Fridge before you leave was out dated
• Natasha (9/5): Comfortable, clean, convenient - Had what we wanted, spa bath, separate bedrroom, outside patio Needed more coffee & milks
• Paul (8/5): -
• Kym (6/5): - Where it was situated Property could have used some maintenance and it could have been cleaner
• Kerri (9/5): -
• Michael (9/5): Location, whilst on a busy street was completely nullified by double glazing etc. Spotlessly clean -
• Manaia (10/5): - It was great for a last minute trip to Geelong I would definitely book again such a great place to stay
• wayne (4/5): Never again - Check in was easy, but things went downhill from there. Rooms did not appear to be cleaned, or not very well . Main heating in kitchen dining area didn't work. Patio door was open to outdoor balcony and the excuse from the owner was nonsense. Rooms smelt of heavy disinfectant. Blinds in main lounge area were damaged and useless. No electric blankets ,which are essential in winter in Geelong. At least two small heaters were supplied to warm the rooms. A block of chocolate was under the sheets of the main bed in the second bedroom. It had been partially eaten. On the back of the en suite door was what appeared to be food which was probably coughed or sneezed up and left to dry. Another reason why it looked like the rooms had not been cleaned. Also there was hair in the bed with the chocolate bar.
• Yinxin (9/5): -
• Lindon (7/5): - Property location was great and so was dealing with the host Unfortunately both the beds sheets had hairs (both head hairs and pubic hairs) in addition to wear your feet go being grotty on the sheets and the toilet had not been cleaned as evidenced by the pictures taken. Happy for this not to be shared however the owner needs to now

• Janice (8/5): -
• Brad (9/5): -
• Geoff (10/5): - John was very helpful. Free upgrade after aircon wouldn't turn on. Nil.
• Marita (5/5): - Close to CBD Host hit us up for more cash due to booking.com not including kids ages. Mattress was too soft and saggy. Overall age and wear was showing for the price.

• Jessica (1/5): -
• George (8/5): -
• Vee (10/5): -
• Liam (6/5): It was alright, unacceptable issues for the pricing however - Room was comfortable, mostly clean, provided a nice area for entertainment and close to city centre Upon arrival, the host had provided us the wrong room with the wrong room code, we walked into somebody else's appartment. Upon finally getting our actual room information, the TV remote was gone, the fan in the master bedroom was broken and there were dead moths on the bathroom floor
