2/10 Poor

This property is shabby, bizarrely decorated if you could call it that, and dirty. Linens are dirty, shabby, and sparse. There was hair in the refrigerator and in several places in the rooms. Wicker furniture has grime in the grooves. There is a bad smell that I can't quite place - old cigarettes or just long term grime. The carpet is stained. We left after one night only because we had no alternative for the one night we did stay. The employee who greeted us was warm and helpful but the property is just in terrible shape and I'm sure it is not her fault.

The property is centrally located in Coupeville. It is a bit dated, but clean and an excellent value compared to much more expensive options in this town. Carla, our housekeeper, was lovely and flexible with our needs. She also gave each of us a breakfast gift card for a coffee place on the same block, which turned out to be a great breakfast spot.

The room was supposed to be smoke free and it reeked of smoke. The owner’s pit bull was in the room when we arrived. The carpet was dirty, the screen door was broken, the bedding and towels were old and didn’t match, coffee maker but no coffee, no tissue, the breakfast was a gift card to a restaurant and was only for $7.00. I was so glad to leave in the morning.

No sign of anyone around, and no visible means of entry, when we first arrived. It had a (falling apart) sign for a Pad Thai restaurant on the front lawn, but nothing for Penn Cove Inn. Quite run-down looking. Main surface areas clean (ish), but not corners. Smelled faintly of old cigarette smoke, although fortunately not strong enough to trigger the asthma. Found the sign for the Inn at side yard, hidden behind fence and broken into 2 pieces. We had to ask about the "breakfast" and were given 2 gift cards for Sunshine Drip Cafe. Not sure we would have been given anything had we not asked. The cards were to have $7 on each, but one had only $1.15. The cafe honoured it for the full $7 anyway. I got the impression from the survey markers, as well as the dilapidated state of the house and cottage, that this is a property that is going to be re-imagined. Having said all that, I have stayed in worse places.

Save Your Money
I was so disturbed. The room was above the restaurant and the smells were strong. No air condition. Just a weak fan. The room was dark, smelled and hot. I left within the hour and did not receive any thoughts from the manager or owner. I was so disappointed. It looks so charming, but in reality the opposite.

We arrived late, but Carla was there to meet us . the restaurants had closed, but Carla showed up with homemade pork chops and fresh cherries. Amazing hospitality, above and beyond all expectations.Thank you, Carla! Would definitely stay here again.

Great unique place to stay
Loved this place. After realizing what a unique place this was, we booked the cottage. So cool. Host greeted us and it was just so easy. Wish we could have stayed longer.

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

It was a little tricky to find but once we did, it was fun. A little bit of history. Felt like home.

I had made reservations months ago for the cottage and another room. I had been staying there for a week when, literally at the last second, was told the cottage wasn't available. They did give my daughter a nice room inside the other building, but that isn't the point. They told me the cottage was unavailable. I was looking forward to having room to spread out, a frig in the room, air conditioning, somewhere to sit to visit, etc. I also know for a fact that they rented the cottage out to someone else, as I talked to the people who were staying there. I felt screwed around and did not get what I had booked and paid for. Had they just been up front and honest with me, I might have felt better about not getting what I had booked. The dishonesty and last minute change left me no other option but to take the other room. This is not acceptable, but I was backed into a corner, and this is not a nice way to do business!

An old beauty
Had a hard 480 mile drive and needed a good nights sleep. This hit the spot. Very quiet and clean. We didn't need TV, microwave, fridge or any other modern crap. This is a 136 year old house, and it was shaded and quiet. No creaky floors. Bed was firm, just a full bed which suited us fine. We would stay here again.

We stayed in a very old cottage so it was pretty funky. But the cottage was clean and the beds very comfortable. I would stay there again. Carla, who greeted us, was very sweet and helpful.

It had a very good location for walking around near the water and enjoying shops and restaurants and watching wildlife. The place was run down and smelled of stale cigarettes.

Our stay at the Inn was great! While you do get what you pay for, it was the perfect little place to stop. Carla, the hostess, couldn’t have been more kind to my friends and I. We would definitely go back for her!

If you can't find anything else, this place will suffice for sleeping and showering. The woman I interacted with was VERY kind (or I'd have given it one star.) Good points: the convenient location, comfortable bed, decent water pres sure. Bad points: Everything else. I stayed in the T.H. White Cabin.The screen door banged relentlessly in the wind, waking me over and over. The curtains don't reach the windowsill and the porch light glares through. The dresser drawer was full of dead bugs, and the other dresser's drawers had no bottoms: the furniture was mostly crap. The vacuum was sitting in the corner (I suppose I could have cleaned up those bugs.) There were weird random items on the shelves, toys, stuffed animals, thrift store junk. The kitchen had a few plates and glasses but zero bowls, knives, cutting boards or anything else you'd need to actually use it. The tea kettle was slathered in grime. I was provided with one partial roll of TP and had to go searching for a second roll. For a "B&B," this was just a B. No food offered, hardly anyone to be found around the place. Several days into my stay I asked the nice woman and was given a few $7 gift cards to a nearby coffee shop. Kind though she was, she sat nearby and smoked a lot, which wafted in my windows. Everything about the grounds was run down and seedy, things just left around evidently for weeks, somebody's shoes abandoned on the lawn with weeds growing through them. Skip this unless you are desperate.

The room, shower, bath, etc, were very clean. Jacob's room is literally at the front of the house on the street. Doors didn't shut correctly or lock. Doors inside had to be wrestled to be opened. Towels were threadbare and rough, and were delivered in a tied up grocery sack on the front porch when we got back from our evening out. I appreciate that it wasn't terribly expensive (approx 100/night) and I'm not expecting Egytian Cotton towels or doors with chains... but a door that closes securely, towels that are actually somewhat absorbent, and an acknowledgement that the room is street front and attached to the building that contains the local Thai restaurant before arriving woud have let me know what we were walking into.

Stayed one night in old historic post office building. It was well appointed and worth the cost. Heat is good as well as water pressure and temperature in shower. Communication from staff/owner was great and very responsive and helpful.
