2024 Election Week Escape

Linen&Stone Inn's location is ideal, with a 3 minute walk getting us to Main St. and all of downtown Galena. Ginger was a great host, very responsive to any questions or requests we had, and check-in and departure were accomplished with ease. We had a great, 3-night stay, our first visit to Galena...and we'll be back!

Close to Main Street. Walkable location. Road is busy so you hear car noise. For 2 people I would suggest adding another chair. We enjoyed our stay

Galena Getaway

We had a great stay! Location was easy to find and close to downtown with easy access to roads to visit other areas, (e.g., Antique Mall). Only issue I had was I could not figure out how to increase the volume of the TV. Other than that, my wife and I had a great time.

Wonderful in every way!

Unit 6 as well as the shared areas were wonderful, clean, relaxing, peaceful, with plenty of parking in the back.and plenty of trash containers out back. The trail mix snack packs, organic coffee, green tea, and mini Kurieg coffee machine was perfect. Nice size mini fridge and freezer. Secure and easy access to the room definitely a plus. Its right off Main Street on Spring Street if you want a short walk. Very affordable, clean, and communication with the Host is top notch. I could not have asked for more. Absolutely enjoyed my visit! Will be back! Thank you!

Cute stay for a couple

My fiance and I had a wonderful time here. It's a cute private room just big enough for two. It's nice and close to downtown but be prepared to walk up some hills! Hills are hard to avoid in Galena though. We would definitely stay again!

Charming Suite

Overall we really enjoyed our stay! The suite is charming and it is close enough to downtown to walk in nice weather. The check-in and communication when we needed something was easy and prompt. I would recommend making sure the fireplace is up and running if you’re staying in the colder months. It would have been nicer if we could have used the fireplace while we were there. My only complaint would be that it’s a bit close to a busier road. So, the cars going by were loud sometimes. But it was so nice to be so close to the main drag in Galena for shopping and restaurants, that it was worth it.

Nice place!

It is small and you do have to go outside to access the living room. However, it is all part of the charm.

Nice location, short pleasant walk to down town. Only suggestion would be to add another chairs when renting unit 6 to two people. Otherwise, our stay w as perfect.
