My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms had a slight moldy smell, but I was lucky to get a room with a balcony offering a great view of the woods. After a day of exploring Galena, it was nice to relax on the deck overlooking the woods. However, climbing the staircases was a bit tiring.
