The Bank Place location is excellent. Walk to anywhere including the bayside, 2 shopping centres, cinemas, art gallery, laneway cafes. Noise was no real issue, anyone sensitive at night can wear earplugs, but by the end of the week, I slept quite peacefully without them.
The building is solid stone and brick, so there is a sense of security from the outside world and you can easily disappear into a lounge with a book upstairs or downstairs.
Being able to park the car under cover was great for the last day when it rained and made packing the car easy.
I did 3 short trips over 3 days to Port Arlington/St Leonards, Queenscliff/Point Lonsdale and Lorne. Each deserving of more visits! Even though I stayed a week, I should have stayed another 3 days.
The aircon (for heating) and washing machine dryer (combo) are being attended to.
The Host was excellent and fully attentive.
I would recommend this place for a single or couple to unwind and retreat from the everyday, but able to jump into downtown Geelong life in an instant.
