Unfortunately, when we arrived at 4:30pm after a long day of driving we discovered that the property hadn’t been cleaned after the previous guests. After contacting the hosts they organised for the cleaners to come and clean/ service the property but we had to wait around for 45mins+ while they did so and we were still left with dirty linen in the laundry.
I know these things happen but I would’ve thought there’d be some checks and balances in place to make sure guests don’t turn up to a property that hasn’t been serviced.
Once this hurdle was overcome we enjoyed our time in Penguin and appreciated the location within walking distance to all the shops, restaurants etc.
Mobile phone service seemed to be a bit sketchy at the property (on Telstra anyway) so it would’ve been great for the property to have wifi provided, if only to make it easier to check out local attractions and business for opening times, menus, etc.
