I really liked my stay here yes the place is super old but it’s like an awesome vintage vibe. The kitties on the property are super sweet. The lady that hosted was super nice and informative. The coffee place up the road was super awesome. Thank you so very much Karla was so nice. I will definitely miss all the cats 😭

Overall we’d recommend this place as an affordable place to lay your head in a really beautiful town. Others have mentioned that it’s an old house, and with that comes character and sometimes things you’re not used to. If old houses are your bag, this will suit you just fine.

It was conveniently located to downtown. Room was functional. Patio sitting quiet. The host was friendly and informative. There was no soap, shampoo and conditioner in the shower. The shower nozzle had to be hand held. And it lacked an extra blanket. A good choice for one night. It was functional.

The price is right if you just need a bed to sleep. No room amenities of any kind. Old style bathtub/shower is dangerous probably not up to code. Would I stay there again? NO!

Clean, cute and comfy with super friendly staff! The little town it's in is also adorable, and not too far away from a bigger town for more dining and shopping options

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Where to begin, upon arrival there are no indications saying the Penn Cove, appearance paint was peeling from building, step was uneven, opening door was greated with a bed sheet hanging off the wall, what looked like a dead rodent in the corner but was just accumulated dirt, smelled what I thought was smoke but was incense burning, stairs to second floor were carpeted but not vacummed windows in the room had a gap in them unable to close, toilet paper was hanging off the wall had no towels or pillow, pillow that was given appeared to have never been washed or cleaned.
