Lovely property, well kept and clean. Easy to find ...Penola is a small town. Rooms well equipped and modern feel. Room had small fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle , toaster and crockery. Beds comfortable, shower good but water pressure is low (yeah a minor issue but worth a comment). There is a bbq area - another guest used the bbq one night. There is also a communal laundry if you need. Manager/ owner on site - very friendly and helpful. Off street parking. Overall accommodation was great

The room was quite large. The design of the ensuite and wardrobe is one of the best I have seen. The grassed area between the accommodation block and the rustic reception (defunct restaurant) block is quite charming ... need more than one night to fully enjoy that, however.

Parking arrangements are a bit odd, but given the town seems to be quite calm and wealthy the likelihood of a security issue is low. No alternative arrangement is obvious, however. There was a bit of noise from rooms above mine, but the guests soon settled down!

Clean, comfortable accommodation with friendly staff. This place is well located in the charming town of Penola.

It is interesting that this is the first property of the many we've used through Booking.Com that made it clear that any cancellation or change in the booking after it was booked online would result in the cost of the first night being forfeited. We booked a week prior to the date we needed the accommodation and thankfully didn't need to make any changes.

My room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. I had a microwave, toaster and kettle, also a small fridge so was able to make my breakfast and sit out on my little balcony. There was an area outside to catch up with friends and a BBQ if you wanted. The motel was just on the outskirts of the main town, a walk of only 10 minutes. The staff were very nice. I thoroughly recommend and would definitely stay there again.

There was nothing I didn't like

Have stayed in far worse motels. Convenient location, large comfortable bed, off street parking, after hours check in option, good size fridge with separate freezer compartment, balcony on first floor rooms, clean linens and towels provided

Very loud exhaust fans in bathrooms, zero noise barrier between rooms - can hear full conversations through the walls. No cleaning supplies for cutlery and dishes, of which only one set per person was provided for our two night stay.

The breakfast was traditional and very nostalgic country motel breakfast. It was great. The location was within walking distance to the shops etc and was fine. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable and the views were good too. The owners are very lovely and very kind people.

Stayed here quite a few times very large room comfortable bed, good shower. Nice bbq area with seating and tables. It's a bit old but I think carpet and curtains are new. It's got all you need for a few days stay.

One of our pet hates, fan comes on in bathroom when light turned on. We know if internal it is required but would be great to have separate switches.

It was clean and comfortable good bed and proper bed linen made it homey especially after a long days travel. Parking was good amenities were good and the shower was hot and strong. It also had shower caps a real test for good accommodation 😁. Good internet connection quality tv and reverse cycle heating and cooling. The room was roomy too. Was such a good stay we made sure to stay there on our return trip.

It was all good 👍

Recently renovated room with high ceilings and lots of space. Comfortable and clean. Good A/C. The manager kindly let us bring a camp mat for our son because they were booked out for family rooms.

We had some mosquitos in the room but there was spray, so easily dealt with.

Very pleasant courtyard with shaded and sunny spots, we had a ground floor room with direct access so we spent much spare time there. Rooms were comfortable, clean, quiet and well insulated. Wineries are a short drive and a couple even walking distance, 2 pubs and some restaurants 10 minutes walking distance (opposite direction). Penola is only a small place.

Parking is away from the rooms, but ours wasn't too far away - you can unload gear at the door of ground floor rooms before parking.
