“Almost perfect”

Mum and I stayed in the family room, so we could sleep in different rooms. There's a separate bedroom with two singles and a TV, then a double (maybe queen) and a single in the main room with the kitchenette and TV and chairs and small round table. Bathroom and toilet are separate which is good and makes sense as often could be 3 or 4 people. Room has been fully serviced every day so far (3 nights/days into 5 night stay). Beds made, so probably sheets changed, towels, tea towel, etc removed and replaced. Even clean cups and glasses. Basically as if it's going to be new customers in the room every day. It's almost unnecessary too much, even though it's nice. Even the partially used shampoo seems to be removed which is a waste. On the other hand it means the teabags are topped up every day and there's a couple more biscuits every day. We thought there would be more traffic noise as it's quite close to a busy intersection heading west out of city centre, but no issue. Because of proximity to the intersection traffic and Woolworths entry/exit across the road, coming from city centre it's easier to approach the motel by driving further west on Aberdeen, left into Minerva Rd, left into Upper Skeen St, and at the end left again into Shannon Ave where the motel is now on the left hand side. As well as Woolworths there's a classic Aussie sort of hotel (of the food and drink kind) on one corner, fuel on another corner, and restaurant & more across on the other corner. Kitchenette area has 4 hotplates, microwave, fridge, and usual other stuff in a small cupboard. No oven but we wouldn't expect an oven. Other side of room is a sink with benchspace, crockery and cutlery underneath. The only real downside is the room is quite dark without lighting on, even with curtains and door open on a nice day. Because of it being right in the back corner of the building and minimal window space as a result. The interior lights are also not powerful (which can be a good thing) so you'll probably find yourself turning all the lights on that you can find.

“Excellent position. Cleanliness was 10 out of 10. Very roomy. Great shower. Beds comfortable. They left you soap, shampoo clean ”

The room was very comfortable. 10 out of 10 for cleanliness. The shower was great with good water pressure. It was close to shops and eaterys. Every day you could have clean towels plus washers. And extra soap, shampoo each day. There was tea, coffee and biscuits. Grest stay.

We had to stay overnight in Geelong at short notice and I selected the Shannon Motor Inn because it was close to where we had to be the next day and it was slightly cheaper than it’s surrounding competitors. Expecting a fairly basic motel, we were pleasantly surprised by our Queen Room. Everything was spotlessly clean, it had just about everything that you could need including a cooktop and a good selection of crockery and cutlery. The staff were very pleasant and the free WiFi rocked along at 40+ Mbps download. Basically, it rated highly in all of my “3Cs” personal motel categories - clean, quiet (I know) and comfortable. Highly recommended.
