Convenient, great location

Deb was an excellent hostess, helpful and quick to answer questions. The location was absolutely great to walk downtown and come back to thoughout the day. Nice to have the two parking spots, although a little difficult to maneuver in and out of. The home itself while very clean and well kept was old and the decor out dated, but again fit the Galena atmosphere. Overall a very nice stay and met all out needs.
