"This is a very cute place! Incredibly reasonable priced. Looks like to me that someone bought it and are trying to renovate it. It's not like your standard hotel room. It's cute. Has character! Newer carpeting! Cute headboard and I just like how the room itself was set up. There's a mini fridge/microwave in your room. The bed was decent! Not too hard and not too soft. Same with the pillows. The shower was excellent! The staff were awesome and helpful! I was only here to sleep for a night, but I'd like to actually check out the town. It seems decent. Nice, quiet area. The pool they're having problems with. It leaks and will be 6+ months. Not why I came here anyhow. Came for the price and location. I think it was about 12 miles from Dubuque. I will come here again! As a matter of fact, I'm bringing my boyfriend on Saturday. Some event in Dubuque."

"My wife and I traveled to Galena to celebrate our 4th wedding anniversary. The weather was perfect for spending a few days there, and the Steamboat House was ideal, thanks to its location, aesthetics, and amenities. We both have gluten allergies, and while I forgot to mention this in our reservation, Carol, the innkeeper, was incredibly helpful in providing gluten-friendly breakfast options, which made our stay feel even more special. The house was beautifully decorated with a fall and Halloween theme, which we both enjoyed as we walked around and took in all the decorations. We highly recommend this place for couples or families seeking a cozy getaway in a historic house just off the main road into downtown Galena. We will for sure be returning in the future for another stay!"
