The room is generally clean, bit of wear and tear and some exit mould wouldn’t go amiss in the showers but good bed and quality linen with a bathroom that has been updated in the last few years. Check in experience was a little strange, I’d booked Best Western but no signage at property as it’s called Great Ocean Road Studios. However on back of room key is a business card branded Best Western with the GM’s details. Room keys with paper tags denoting your last name all lined up on a plastic fold up table with little instruction, not as welcoming as other tourist town motels I’ve been. I understand the concept but had concerns that people can take and access your room before check in, including guest information privacy. No facilities at Motel, if you need anything you need to go to town (500m away - Motel is on outskirts of township - all others appear in the centre of town) Supermarket is open late but don’t be surprised that most other things are only open from 8AM, if you’re travelling on from here get supplies in Port Campbell the night before. Only one place for Coffee at 07:30 and you can’t miss the line up of people trying to get theirs before hitting the road including the locals. Don’t stay in rooms 9 or 14, there are rooms above with no sound insulation. I heard everything including the conversation of guests, TV and every time people moved or walked about the roof and walls would shake, not to mention one night I had family above and kids were running up and down the stairs. This also includes hearing the rooms next door. The Accom buildings, although look permanent feel like they are prefab kit accommodation almost like demountables you get on mine sites. Stayed 3 Nights (Probably more than most guests) in total and not once was the place cleaned/serviced - notional sign about cleanliness practises but I didn’t experience this. Probably great for 1 Night quick stays during travelling the Great Ocean Road but I’d choose another option in town for longer stays.
