I couldn’t had picked a more perfect place for a weekend of shopping, good eats and entertainment with my girlfriends. What made it the best was its smack dab in the middle of it all! The kitchen was a great place for conversation, and was so happy to have stumbled across this place.

45th and 50th anniversary trip for 2 couples

Galena is a great place to visit and we enjoyed our stay. The Gazette suite that we stayed in was a nice and very clean apartment. Great location in downtown, with a reserved parking spot. ( better instructions on where parking spot was would be helpful). Communication with property management was good. We would stay here again, as long as we were sharing cost with another couple, as we did this stay. Apartment description and photos were accurate. Beds were comfy. Bedroom closets had a small hanging cloth shelve unit , which was nice. But the closets could have used a few more hangers and the bedroom could have used a folding luggage rack to use for your suitcase. Overall, a nice place, a nice town and we would come back again.

Second Visit in 3 months!

We love this place enough to not even bother with any other place to stay. Extremely clean and well laid out. Had everything we needed for a 3 night stay. This gem of an old building has been completely modernized and they made no bad choices when designing it. The two bedrooms are on opposite ends of the unit, and you really can't hear a thing. Perfect location and the owners really respond very quickly to any questions. The only thing is the 21 stairs leading up to the place, which my 83 year old mother managed just fine. The stairs are very even and there is ample lighting. Everything else is perfect!

Lovely apartment. Perfect location to everything downtown Galena. Parking was really tough in that area, so be prepared. This apartment comes with an assigned spot not too far from the door. That was nice. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect in every way

I came here with my 82 year old mother (who managed the long entrance stairs just fine) and we both thoroughly loved this property. Had every imagineable logical convenience, and all beautifully remodeled in a fascinating old building. The bedrooms are on opposite sides of the unit, which really was great. This was the cleanest VRBO or other property rental I have ever stayed in. Absolutely immaculate. High quality linens and bedding. The owners were very easy to get in touch with when I had a question. Would stay here again without hesitation.
