This an older BW with an odd layout but it is surprisingly well run and comfortable. The room was clean and pretty spacious. Miriam at the front desk was friendly and very helpful in discussing dinner options. All in all a very nice stay for a good price.

The staff is always friendly and helpful. The breakfast is fantastic. Our room, a suite with an "extra bedroom" was spacious and comfortable. The location of the hotel is easy to get anywhere you want to visit in Galena, and literally a walk across the parking lot to Happy Joe's or Frank O'Dowds Pub
