Bedroom two has two single beds and a wardrobe.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - BOOKINGS FOR TWO ADULTS - WANTING TWO ROOMS -
please take note - i have priced the unit to be cost effective for guests but also to cover our costs - please respect this fact - I make clear here - if you book two adults I will assume you require 1 bedroom. Please tell me if you require two rooms (colleagues travelling) as I request a fee for the additional laundry and cleaning. - Thank you.
Back to the kitchen - 4 burner cook top, oven, microwave, midsize fridge, kettle and toaster. Pots and Pans, utensils and bowls. Dishes for 4 or so and glassware, to top all that a dishwasher for you to load everything before you go!
The Lounge/Dining area is open, Air Conditioned a table for 4, large Lounge chairs and two seater couch. A large screen - wall mounted -TV. Coffee table and drinks table.
The internet is available by WiFi
The laundry - rear exit way - has a laundry trough and top load washing machine as well as broom and mop.
The back yard has a shed ( for ?? your bicycles) and a clothes line to freshly air dry your washing.
The front has a wire security door for your safety and comfort, opening onto the front veranda. a nice spot to sit with a coffee.
there is one under cover car space (Carport) and another car can be carefully parked to not disturb other owners.
A herb Garden at the front maybe harvested to compliment your cooking or salads. (please water for me).
The unit (or apartment) is 200 metres from over 50 shops, cafes and services (Banks, Post Office) two supermarkets are also within walking distance.
The Barwon River is just down the hill, with 100's of Kilometres of Bike and walking tracks, a 20 minute walk upstream can be rewarded with sighting a Wallaby.

NOTE - we allow a DOG - a condition is you clean up. You must tell me you are bringing a dog and we charge a $45 fee for a dog stay (1 night or 7 nights - just $45)

Two Bedroom - roomy Apartment - great location midway Geelong CBD - Deakin Waurn Ponds

Geelong Short Stays manage numerous apartments, Units & homes in the region and have renovated and fit out the apartment on the basis of this experience. Easy to look after, clean and light, energy efficient. Quieter than our CBD properties and with a little back yard.
Located in suburban Belmont just 200 metres off High Street, - with Coles and Aldi, Cafes, Winebars & specialty shops. The Belmont Hotel (Pub) is 162 metres, there is Malay, India and Chinese restaurants as well as pizza and pasta.
Deakin University has two Geelong Campus - Waurn Ponds 8 kilometres south west (about 10 minutes drive) - The Waterfront Campus is closer - less than 5 kilometres along High St & Moorabool Street (again about 10 - 12 Minutes).
Kardinia Park [Swimming Pool & Football Ground] is within walking distance across the River, or a 5 minute drive. Stay and see the "Cats" win (or not).
The River and Boatsheds are just 5 minutes walk so a perfect stay for school Rowing stays.
Mt Duneed Estate - both winery and concert venue {recently Fleetwood Mac and Elton John} is just past the Waurn Ponds Campus so 12 - 15 minutes away.

AIRSHOW - each Avalon Airshow our properties are booked earlier and earlier - this property can accommodate 4 adults (in separate beds - if arranged) and with the adjacent property we can manage 8 adults across two joining properties.

Barwon Health (University Hospital Geelong) main facility is on Ryrie, Bellarine and Myer Street, Geelong and is 5 Kilometres away. St John of God a fraction closer.

Long Stays - ideal longer stay property

We encourage stays of more than one night if possible by price incentive and at various times - depending on other bookings - offer large discounts on Longer Stays. The renovation has opened with 40 nights from referred guests from Belgium.
When enquiringly about longer stays please remember when calculating costs that you will have no utilities bills and the unit is fully furnished. (obviously!! but sometimes inquiries compare my sites to an annual rental of an empty flat and forget their Electricity and Gas bills).

Bookings for 1 person for multi weeks can be lower than displayed rates.

regular mid week bookings are met with discounts. (regular is more than 2 x 3 night stay!!)

Belmont is across the River from Geelong proper, Geelong is 1 hour from Melbourne by car or train to South Geelong Station.
The Gull Bus runs from Melbourne Airport to Geelong.

Rianna is possibly the worst guest of all time, an excuse maybe some illness but her behaviour and messaging was such that we involved Police and asked her to move out. The Messaging is truly insane - rants about totally unrelated issues with her life and calls all times of the day we (the staff and I ) all had to block her as there were so many calls she damaged the furniture and left a real mess but we were just so happy to see her out

This is a basic, functional place to stay. And this is reflected in the price. I had to do a long term stay for family reasons so cost became important, This met my needs. It is convenient - bathroom and kitchen have been updated but to builder grade. It is cheaper than staying in a 3 star motel and certainly more comfortable.

Kitchen and bathroom nice and clean. We had everything we needed for our stay but have a couple of suggestions -* For safety and ease of evacuation if required, a key to the back door should be provided.* The security screen door lock on the front is faulty and cannot be locked from inside. *The trees and shrubs on the front and side need a good cut cut back. The trees overhanging the roof are providing access to possums, who are now living in the ceiling.

Clean and tidy however the bed was incredibly small. The location was very suburban which was not clarified in the listing.

I think most people book here because it is in the Suburbs away from the CBD Also the Bed as per the listing says Queen Bed - there is not big QB and small QB that is in itself a size - understood by most people so maybe your review is for another place you stayed at during your travels - that has happened just once before
