Innkeeper Kerrie was kind and overall helpful. The building is beautiful. She has generally concerned about our ability to get to the third floor and helped us relocate to the coach house. One TV didn’t work in the space and the lighting in the coach house was pretty dim. The breakfast was good and she was willing to accommodate our special dietary needs. I do feel like some aspects of the house and yard could have been cleaner. Parking can be a challenge.

It was close to town, but you did need to walk up a LOT of steps. Something to be aware of. The breakfast was tasty and the place was quaint and comfortable. The bed was wonderful.

We had a very relaxing experience. The Galena Inn has much character (loved this) and history. Breakfast changed each day which was nice. The staff worked hard to care for our needs and requests. We’ll be back!

Great stay. Stayed in the Generals suite which was in the converted carriage house. Very hilly making walking to downtown and back sporty at least.

Charming, but not the most comfortable
It's a cool looking place. Friendly and welcoming staff. I felt like our room was kind of musty and the best and pillow weren't the most comfortable. There are nice porches and balconies to sit out on in nice weather. And you can easily walk to Main Street if you don't mind a million stairs. It's an old place so there aren't a lot of outlets for your devices.

Liked for all the reasons noted above. Disliked due to difficulty finding the property. On-line maps from website very poor. Once in the Galena area, little to no cell service available to get directions from Google Maps. Frustrating!
