Cheap and cheerful. Don't expect luxury. Very clean room. Very friendly staff. Breakfast more than adequate with friendly and attentive service. Room door didn't lock properly! Could be pushed open.

Lovely welcome, ideal location for Southport Theatre. Strict no smoking policy (fine because we don't smoke) however room smelled of cigarette smoke so much so that I could smell it on my clothes the next morning. Need modernising. Big window from internal corridor made room room light to sleep. Needs blocking off.

The b&b is in an ideal location but needs some redecorating. The welcome is warm, the room clean and breakfast good, although it we had to ask for yoghurt - it wasn't offered as an option. It was also disappointing that there was no fruit available. The shower curtain rail around the bath needs to be a little longer as there was not much room to close the curtain to shower.

Good rate. Close proximity to show venue (ie.. Southport Theatre). Friendly/helpful and informative owner and staff. The Full English brekkie. Relaxed and homely atmosphere.The name Penkelie. Some would say it's in need of updating, but having a chat with the owner this is underway/ on-going. Part of me finds the decor homely and quaint.

The breakfast was very good, it was served quickly and in a friendly manner. The decoration and furnishings were old fashioned and 'tired'. The Penkelie needs modernising and brought up to date.

Service was lovely, the food was delicious, and the room was perfect for my much needed get away and in a great location I was a bit nervous the first night as there isnt a bolt on the door only the normal lock (and since I was staying on my own in a new city I was a bit nervous the first night), Perhaps could have offered an evening meal option for a small charge or a list of places around that are opened quite late for meals for people who have never visited the area.
