Clean and quaint

Check-in was super simple. The room was exactly as described. It was clean and comfortable. We arrived hungry and were grateful for the snack assortment that was provided. If you’re a light sleeper, don’t choose units 1 or 2. They face a busy street and the windows rattled when large vehicles drove by (or consider bringing earplugs). Overall, we loved our stay!

Long weekend

The area was great - easy walking access to the Main Street area. House was clean and offered board games and Netflix! Having the mini fridge was a bonus since we stayed two nights.

Get away Trip

We had a great trip. It is very clear the property owners wanted to provide a great experience for their guests. We had no issues with the property and would stay again in the future. There was some road construction and was a little noisy but that had nothing to do with the property, just a little bad timing.

Anniversary weekend getaway

Their communication and check-in process were great. The location is pretty good but there is a lot of road noise all hours. Overall the room was tired and in need of a refresh. The white towels were yellow and in need of replacing. Our sheets had dark stains on them in a very obvious spot that should have been seen. One of the pillows smelled like someone else's cologne (gross). The other issue is the temp of the room. There's no individual control and it was HOT. Maybe if there was a fan in the room that would have helped. We didn't use the living room so I can't really comment on that. Overall it worked for our weekend. Just could use a few improvements. I wouldn't say we won't come back but we may try another place first.

Charming

The Inn was super cute with all its historic charm. Had a very pleasant experience within walking distance to downtown Main Street. The only negative would be the street noise was a little loud from where our room was located but overall would stay again.

Our room was very nice and well stocked. The location was perfect and within walking distance to downtown Galena. I loved that we received communication throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant. We will definitely stay again on a future return visit to the area.
