We stayed at "This Old House" last weekend in Galena! It was so charming but not without it's issues. There was a definite tilt to all of the floors, as I would expect in an old house. The rugs in the bathroom and hall were damp. There was a sign to make sure to keep the shower curtain inside the lip for the shower. Too bad the lip was so shallow. Oops I forgot my slippers, so I had damp socks all weekend. The charm of the large rooms and antique decor in our suite (the size of a small apartment) outweighed the problems that my construction (retired) husband could see; I loved the firm king bed and the outstanding breakfasts by the amazing on site chef!! Order everything!! It's all delicious! My only real issue was the dust, as I am allergic. As soon as we walked in, my nose and head filled up due to an exorbitant amount of dust everywhere and on everything, even the linens and towels. It was tough on me, especially since we were there over a below zero weekend and weren't able to leave due to -20+ wind chills. Even all of the churches were closed. With a thorough cleaning, and some airing out, it would have been a absolutely delightful weekend B & B. I suggest the managers invest in this; it would make a major difference. Thank you to both Kate and Gabby for your wonderful hospitality, which almost made up for the dust issue. Both ladies cared so much about our comfort and happiness. They went above and beyond to make us happy on such a dreary weekend!!

This very old house was beautiful and had all the modern necessities added to the inside right along side the historical features. It was a perfect place in a great town. Kate and Doug (and their dog Cody!) were awesome. What a privilege to get to know them. This was a much needed vacation for us and the house and town did not disappoint. Absolutely perfect.

The property was located very close to Main Street. The host was a great communicator and it was very apparent she wanted us to enjoy our stay. The breakfast was delicious.

Wonderful property in a GREAT location! Owner is great to work with and great communication and the breakfasts were fantastic!

Perfect! such a beautiful re-do of an historic home! Loved the personal touches and the rooms were equipped with all u could want for a stay! Bkfst was A+!! Parking and easily getting to and from downtown but removed enough to hot have all the traffic!

Beautiful, historic property that has been updated yet retains historic charm. Well furnished, delicious breakfast and the owner was a delight to work with.

My hubby and I met friends here and enjoyed two days in Galena. The inn is quite comfortable and spacious. Bed was very comfortable, and we enjoyed the fireplace as it was cool and rainy. The food was yummy, and we felt relaxed and pampered. I would definitely stay here again.

We had two sixtieth birthday parties and this was the perfect place to celebrate! Spent a lovely afternoon sitting on the back patio. This is a charming, hospitable and relaxing place to enjoy.
