What could've been.
My wife & I had planned for a 3 night stay originally. The home was beautiful overall but our room was not clean. No one had cleaned room. There was dust everywhere on the furniture & the floor. Also - the private bathroom was not adjacent to the room but instead was down 6 very steep steps which was not mentioned on the web site. Lastly - as mentioned - we had planned a 3 night stay but our plans got changed. On the 2nd morning before breakfast - i tried to notify the owner that we needed to leave a day early. The owner was not present but a lady was found in the kitchen preparing breakfast. She explained to me that the owner was not there and would not be coming in due to a doctor appointment. She went further and added that she herself had been called in at the last minute to cover for the owner and she was not very happy about it. When i asked her the details of the home since we needed to leave early - she quickly told me that the money for the 3rd night was not refundable. I was not happy with that remark but said nothing else to the lady as she was not very obliging. The place was not that busy and i had in mind to come back and stay another night on my next trip - but that won't happen now. Bottom line - clean the rooms and be upfront on the bathroom situation.

We loved our stay here! Highly recommend the Marilyn Suite as it is somewhat off by itself and is as large as a small apartment. Very clean and the bed was incredibly comfortable. Breakfast was delightful and we enjoyed the conversation with the other guests and the owner also joined us. Overall, pleasantly surprised and would stay again.

Although i had confirmed reservations, the staff wasn't aware of my arrival and no one was at the property. The Ring doorbell video provided me communication and i was able to get to my room. During that communication i learned that my second floor room had its bathroom on the first floor. Not a good situation for a senior. Had someone been at the property i would have asked for a refund and found something else. The interior is nicely restored and has beautiful period furniture and art. The beds are comfortable and coffee, water, and a refrigerator available for guests. The lighting in the room was excellent and nicely set up for guests. Perhaps the room i was in hadn't been used in a while as it was dusty on both the floor and surfaces. There was differed maintenance in the front landscaping and surfaces. Viewing Google maps, It appeared to be a quick and convenient option to staying downtown Louisville. The drive was actually longer and more circuitous than it looks. In the future I'll stay in Louisville. The property is a good value and a nice change from hotels.

The property is as shown in the pictures The inn keeper, Christy was pleasant, welcoming and made the most amazing breakfast. The unique surrounding area and greenbelt by the river was an unexpected surprise. We highly recommend this property.

A quick stop on our travels and it was perfect.
A Charming Mansion in a great location. Our stay was very comfortable and breakfast was delicious. It is an historical home so the staircases are tall and steep if you have any mobility issues. We managed just fine. The Innkeeper and Owner were very kind and hospitable.

Your New Albany Must-Stay!
This lovely hidden treasure was a delight in my road trip from Nashville, Tennessee to Madison, Wisconsin. My room was beautiful, the bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast in itself, was off the charts delicious. Any coming through this way should make The Pepin a place to stay. They were very friendly and extremely helpful in my after-hours check-in.

This was by far the WORST experience ever. The rooms are all on the second floor. After I found out about this, I texted the owner to see if there is an elevator, as I was traveling with my 83 yr old mom. He said no, but there was one flight of "easy" stairs -- we got there and there was a curved staircase with narrow steps -- NOT easy. When we got there, we found out that our room (Suite #1) has a detached bathroom -- that is not even on the same floor! And no, there's no toilet on the same level as the bedroom. The owner could have mentioned that, but didn't. We got there and realized the situation, and told the owner that my mom couldn't do this -- she gets up 3-4 times every night to use the bathroom and can't do these stairs. We asked if we could get a refund, and we would try to find another hotel. He said, "it's not my fault that you didn't read the fine print" -- and refused to give us our money back. So word to the wise -- the room may not have a bathroom on the same floor (which is NOT in the fine print), and the owner will not have any flexibility at all. My mom ended up falling down his stairs and had a head injury. The owner and management were informed -- no one even was concerned enough to see how she was doing. We left, and went to a Hampton Inn which is right around the corner. There, everyone was incredibly nice, the rooms were clean and it was just night and day...
