The room and utensils were nice and clean. The host was very friendly. It was 500 or so meters from the centre of Penola and there was good off street parking (free). We would stay again.

It’s got the basics for a quick stay

It was a quick overnight stay. The room had the basic necessities for what you need. Felt a bit dated and the bed was quite hard but overall it was okay and suited a one night stay.

Karan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Booked for 2 nights during Festival but upon arrival was allocated an upstairs room. Despite the property not being fully booked was told a ground floor room was not available. This was a problem for us as being elderly we found that climbing stairs difficult. Parking was behind the building and open to anyone passing, I found this not very secure. Restaurant was Closed.
