This is a great house! Lots of room for our group. Perfect central location. Great communication.

The home is perfect for a large family to unite in for a visit. Most rooms had their own bathroom and some even their own living room. There was a lot of room for everyone to have space. The front porch was very comfortable to sit and have coffee while the kids ran their scooters up and down the sidewalk.
There was an issue with anys in the kitchen, which could happen anywhere. The host responded quickly to get rid of them.
We had a unique late March stay at The Maxwell House. Penny was away on holiday but rented the entire house to us for our party of nine. Her assistant, Brenda, was available to help with any questions or issues. While we missed Penny's hospitality and her famous breakfasts and cookies, we were happy to have bedrooms and baths for four couples plus a single all under one roof. We appreciated access to the kitchen for our cooking needs, i.e. lots of coffee and tea making. With so many great restaurants in town, we mostly ate out and, on a couple of occasions, brought in take-out meals.
The Maxwell House is a beautiful old Walla Walla home located on a lovely residential street near Whitman College. For those who enjoy walking, it's a comfortable distance to downtown restaurants, shops and tasting rooms. There's plenty of parking at the front and back of the house. It was too cold to use the outdoor space but we thought it looked very inviting.
The decor of the house is quite traditional and, while perhaps not to everyone's taste, is in keeping with the era of the home. Bathrooms are updated and have nice showers. Bedrooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. The house is very clean. Bed linen and bath towels are a nice quality.
What we enjoyed most about the house was the spaciousness of the living and dining room. As a large group, we enjoyed having room to hang out together for morning coffee and an evening glass of wine. The space was perfect.
All in all, we had a very nice stay. We'll look forward to Penny's breakfasts and cookies next time.
Thanks so much for having us!
We were a party of five seniors in Walla Walla for some wine tasting. Flawless stay from start to finish. Never had to contact the property manager, but couldn’t submit this review without giving her a rating, so kindly disregard that rating. We would stay here again.

We were a group of five seniors who rented this lovely home as our base for Wine Tasting. Everything was to our liking. Easy check-in. The house was clean, well-stocked and quite cozy. Walking distance to Whitman College.
We would stay here again.
