The young man at the front desk was great! He was very friendly, funny, and accommodating. He offered me Best Western rewards which I have not been offered before; he also asked if everything was going okay when we passed through the lobby. The pool was nice (the indoor/outdoor passing was fun for us), the breakfast was plentiful,and the honeymoon suite was quite cozy! The two queen room my family was in was a good size and very cozy as well! Nice hotel in a cute little town!

I had booked 2 rooms, 1 for our adult children and 1 for my husband and me, and both had the cabin-theme. We truly enjoyed our time, we had a little balcony. Sumit checked us in, and he was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay there again when we travel to Galena!

The room smelled terrible. There was a potato chip in the blanket when we arrived and a brown streak on another blanket. Towels were dingy. Shower curtain moldy at the bottom. Dusty webs on the ceiling. Flickering lights in the bathroom. Dirty and dusty indoor/outdoor furniture. Not enough hot food at breakfast for all hotel guests. Pool and hot tub area dark and depressing. Yellow ring around hot tub. Dirty, weed-filled parking lot strewn with litter. Reasonably friendly staff. View from balcony would’ve been nice if grounds weren’t littered with pop cans and cigarette butts.

The rooms are big and the location is convenient. But the hallway needs renovation and the breakfast could be better
