The shuttle service to/from downtown Galena is very convenient. The rooms are a bit dated and the mattress felt like sleeping on the floor. There was also no automatic housekeeping. Overall, it was a good place for a night or two but I expected a bit more for the price.

The breakfast was great and price comparable to Wyndham properties at the similar price point with breakfasts that are pretty much just cheap carbs.

The location was very quiet and felt safe yet close to all attractions. We especially enjoyed the restaurant and bar which were located on the property and the friendliness of the staff. The room was very well appointed and comfortable. We would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Galena and the surrounding area.
