My wife and I stayed one night over Easter weekend in the Rudolph room. It was excellent. Room was very, very clean. Some people might be a little concerned about the room being close to the highway, but you don't hear the traffic in the room. Plus, we liked it anyway and sat on the porch at night and watched...

My wife and I stayed at Abe's Spring Street Guest House for two nights and we enjoyed our time there very much. We selected the "Honeymoon, Anniversary or Special Occasion Package" and highly recommend it! (http://www.galenabedbreakfast.com/packages.php) The owners are very accommodating and know everything there is to know about Galena. They were able to provide good directions and suggestions for...

We visited Galena and stayed at the Abe's Spring Street Guest House. Loved the room and our hostess was a wonderful, warm, friendly individual. Our room was large and very welcoming when we entered. Breakfast in the morning was a treat for the taste buds. Our hostess served an exceptionally delicious breakfast before we continued on our travels. Be sure... More

We went to Galena w/2 other couples. We stayed in Rudolph's Retreat room, one couple stayed in Albert's Glen room and the other couple stayed at Farmers down the street. Since this is an old icehouse, the walls are super thick which is nice because you don't hear much of anything. Being in the front room by the road, we... More

We stayed in the Albert's Glen room, a very large & clean 3 room suite that includes every comfort expected for a Galena getaway. Unique and quirky (in a most complimentary way), since elements of the building restoration and some furnishings were done by the talented craftsman / owner. The nearby owners home and business are equally amazing to see.... More

Staying at Abe's Spring Street Guest house was a relaxing experience. It was quiet and comfortable. Our room and the sauna room were both spotlessly clean and very nice. Charles and Sandy were very hospitable. We enjoyed Charles' pottery demonstration and Sandy's breaksfasts were beyond compare. While we enjoyed the delicious meal she had prepared, Sandy entertained us with historical... More

Charles & Sandy are wonderful hosts of this special place. Charles is an artist and potter who is happy to share his studio with guests. Sandy makes a wonderful breakfast and is a super hostess. Together they share their beautiful home and surroundings with those of us fortunate enough to stay here

Took my BFF for a surprise getaway after her chemo. I researched B&B's, and kept coming back to Abe's Spring Street, boy am I glad I did. Sandy & Charles are the perfect hosts. Rudolphs Retreat room was wonderful. Very cozy, fireplace, king size bed, too many plus's to mention. Did the glaze&graze, just awsome. Sandy's breakfast's were amazing. The... More

I cannot recommend Abe's enough. My wife and I stayed in Rudolph's Retreat and got some fantastic rest, enjoyed leisurely walks over to Main St. and had some great breakfasts each morning. I used to go up to Galena for skiing and had never enjoyed the downtown and now can't wait to go back again to enjoy some of the... More
