The room was cozy and inviting. Breakfast was great and host was timely with communication and responsive to our questions and needs. Located on the edge of downtown in easy walking distance of shops and restaurants. Enjoyed our stay very much!
Basically a suite with living and dining area so lots of room. Loved having my own fireplace. Would be ideal for two couples to use the downstairs areas as well. Very comfortable bed (although very high!), nice breakfast. Perfect location so close to main street. All in all excellent
Great B&B. Very private and Wonderful breakfast. Close to everything and we had very nice dinners at three restaurants downtown. Highly recommend this B&B!
We've been to Galena many times. We have stayed in the Galena Territories. This was a nice change. The room was quaint. Everything was comfortable and the breakfasts were delicious. We would highly recommend it. We would stay here again.
Kate communicated well and our check-in was a breeze. We were a short walk from all the shops and fun of the downtown area. Would definitely stay here again!
We had a great stay in this beautiful old home right in the heart of Galena. Easy walking distance to everything. Delicious breakfasts. Highly recommend!
Nice, roomy suite and walking distance from the main shopping and dining street in Galena. Host was very communicative. Breakfast was homemade and very tasty, but I had to reheat in the microwave in the morning. It was not served in dining room or delivered in the morning per the listing.Would stay again.
We loved staying here! Our suite was very comfortable! Kate was wonderful! She made us feel so special and welcome! Loved the delicious breakfasts! She stocked our fridge the night before with breakfast all we had to do was warm it up when we wanted to eat in the morning! The location was perfect to main street. We walked everywhere we went! Didn't have to worry about parking!the morning!
Beautiful room, delicious breakfasts, and great location. We enjoyed ourselves! It was a great weekend! Kate was very easy to get in touch with and kept our fridge stocked! I would recommend this property.
Location was perfect for downtown activities. The house was stunning and our room was beautiful and cozy. Kate made delicious breakfasts each day. She responded quickly and was very kind. We loved our stay!
Out host was a blessing to my wife and I. Very welcoming and encouraging with knowledge of the area. So great to be 1 block from main street shopping. We loved the spacious room with sitting area.
Our stay was the perfect getaway! Kate was so helpful in the check in process and with communication throughout the stay. The room was clean and cozy. Only one thing to note: the breakfast was not really as advertised. Although it was very good, it was prepared the night before and placed in our fridge for reheating in the morning. Still delicious homemade food. But unexpected.
Beautiful, historic property that has been updated yet retains historic charm. Well furnished, delicious breakfast and the owner was a delight to work with.
