    I'll be honest: I was somewhat worried. I don't have a lot of experience with roadside motels, but oftentimes they can be kinda dingy and gross, so I was a bit concerned about what I'd find here. My concerns were completely unfounded. The place was so clean; housekeeping deserves every tip they get! The owner was super nice and had sent me a text a few hours before they closed (as I was just about to pull out from my house, actually) to ensure I was going to be arrive and make arrangements for keys if it would be after 10. Luckily I made it around 9:30 so no problems. It was really comfortable, and the room I was in was surprisingly large. The beds were comfortable. They have a small fridge and microwave in the room, very helpful! There's a pool at the place, which I didn't use but it was pretty popular. It's also larger than I expected because there are some rooms along the backside of the place too, facing the yard, picnic tables, and fire pit. I better mention that the toilets were good because my significant other mentioned them several times, lol. You know how they can be low sometimes? These were slightly taller than toilets often are and that's good. The rooms have small outdoor tables and chairs as well for folks to hang out outside, which is nice on a warm summer evening. It's next door to the distillery, which I didn't visit on this trip but can't say I wouldn't on another one. And the place is about a 3 minute drive from Main Street, so really nicely situated if you don't want to be down in the thick of everyone but would like to be within easy reach. They also rent out U-Haul's so you'll see them and the drop box here. I've already recommended it to friends who have gone to Galena for their future visits, and I will definitely stay here if it's available next time I'm in Galena, and may well plan the dates to ensure I can stay here.

    This is probably the cheapest to stay in the Galena area. The beds are ok. One big thing for me is the price was right and they allow dogs.

    It is in winter so we didn't sit out side but in the back they had a fire pit and a nice yard.

    We came here for a visit at Thanksgiving and we could not have had a better stay! The staff was…read moresuper nice and very helpful. The lobby area, as well as the pool, hot tub and exercise area are great, especially the lobby. Yeah, I know, who gives a crap about the lobby, right? But this one is great. It's very Irish, and very comfy. Go hang out and have a coffee or tea and pull a book off the extensive bookshelves, settle into a plush chair, and chill out. Or stay for afternoon tea. Or in the summer, take your drink on the beautiful outdoor deck. It's a great combination of public areas to meet new friends, and private areas to have a chat. As for the rooms, I obviously can;t comment on them all, but ours was beautiful. We had ample room, plenty of entertainment, a fridge and all the amenities. Add to all that the really great restaurant (with live entertainment and a great Irish whiskey selection), and this is a wonderful place to stay. Next time I'm in Galena, this is absolutely where I will stay.

The rooms were clean and the bed was clean and comfortable!! They didn't skimp on the pillows there had to be 6 on the bed! There were so many towels! I mention this because normally I have to call down for more pillows and towels, this has to be the first time I haven't! We had a whirlpool room and it was perfect! Across the moon with him the staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the area so they helped us navigate what we should see first! We will definitely be back! I didn't take pictures I wish I had!

We loved the lush fresh flower arrangements in our room and throughout the entire inn.

The food - from the afternoon appetizer/cheese/wine tray to the incredible breakfast - was really delicious. And I could go on.

For instance, the carpeting was what you would find in a mansion. The linens and towels were luxurious. We were provided with a bottle of wine and appetizers in the evening. There was a nice variety and a more than ample amount. Breakfast in the morning was out of this world! 3 Courses!!! Entrees were expertly prepared and delicious -- and healthy! Probably our favorite was the steel-cut oats with fruit and a banana foster sauce -- YUM! Again, these portions were very generous. Our host, Matthew, was very kind and attentive. I don't think there are enough superlatives to describe our experience!
