Very clean and comfortable accommodations that were a convenient walking distance to downtown. The ambiance, delicious breakfast along with a great history lesson generously offered by Charles and Sandy was a pleasant surprise. Would definitely stay again!
We loved our stay at Abe's Spring Street Guest House. The studio is decorated with beautiful artwork and the location is perfect for walking downtown. The breakfast was unexpected and wonderful - we enjoyed learning about the history of the building and the food was amazing!
The room was perfect for two. If you stay two nights, make sure to take advantage of Charlie and Sandra’s free breakfast in their renovated brewing cellar for a delicious meal and a fascinated piece of Galena history.
First of all, this room was about 3x the size I thought it was going to be (bonus!). It was spotless. Walking distance to downtown Galena was awesome because I didn’t have to deal with parking. The breakfast on Sunday morning in the 1850 cellar was divine—I keep telling people it was the best omelette I’ve ever had, in the most beautiful setting with elevated service.
I had fun with the back bar.Liked that there was a toaster.The studio was only very clean.It was cool to have the window panes facing the sunrise,and the high ceilings make the place spacious.Carpeting is clean,you'll want to walk barefoot.So if you're thinking of going,I say go!
On the second floor of the Artists' Annex overlooking Spring St. in Galena is the most unique vacation rental. Emma's Corner is equipped with two walls of (to the ceiling) windows, skylights and track lighting that provide unlimited options for showcasing the diverse artwork of the proprietor, Charles Fach.
The unit was very clean and comfortable and is near the shops downtown.
On Sunday we were treated to omlettes for breakfast in a historic room at the back of the Annex that once served as an underground barrel-vaulted limestone brewing chamber. This was truly an amazing experience!
We would highly recommend Abe's Spring St. Guest House & Artist Annex to anyone looking for a unique vacation experience in the Galena area.
