Great Ocean Lodge Stay
The house and location were great. If i had to rate the cleanliness of the property from 1-10 it would be 1. The property was not cleaned before we entered the house. Floor, benches, couchesand bathrooms were dirty and not cleaned.

Almost perfect
This property has the potential to be a gem. Perfect location and great amenities. Very comfortable to accommodate our family of 4. The beds are comfortable and the two bathrooms plus extra toilet are very handy. It’s downfall was with the cleanliness. We checked in and had to clean the kitchen and floors throughout the house before unpacking. Rugs, walls, skirting boards, blinds and windows need a bit of elbow grease to bring this property up to perfection. GOR Holiday Rentals who manage the property offered to send a cleaner for an extra clean but during Covid times we refused to have others in the house. We left the place in a much cleaner way than we found it and when paying peak holiday rates that’s not okay.
