Room was lovely and clean, excellent location. Everything was in great condition. I arrived late and retrieved keys from coded lock box, very simple process. Bed was very comfortable, all equioment supplied in room was in excellent order, linen and towels were great. I appreciated the little extra chocolates on bedside tables, nice touch! I had no complaints but i did have to hip and shoulder the door on numerous occasions to open it, felt like it almost got an air lock if it hadnt been opened all day, hardly a big deal though. There was a really big cobweb in bathroom above the door but again, really minor thing considering how fabulous everything else was. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Not noisy, plenty of places to eat nearby, laundry facilities good and FREE. Loved it

We stayed in the 2 Bedroom Apartment and it was very spacious and comfortable, yet surprisingly quiet for being on the Main Street. With sea views and cafes less than a minutes walk away it was the perfect location for quite beachside getaway. Also loved Penguin as a town and would recommend staying here when visiting Penguin.
