    Reservations were easy to make and rate was affordable. Room was clean and adequate. Needs some work on outside grounds and detail/finish work within the room, hall, breakfast area. Seems it's still a "work in progress". Very nice whirlpool/bath area in the ground floor sweet. Breakfast wasn't anything special - muffins, fruit, and make your own waffles. It is private, neighborhood is quiet, and you are close to the Dubuque Riverfront District.

    We had 3 rooms for the guest suite, a large bath, sitting room with a TV, and a bedroom. The whirlpool bath was wonderful. It was very quiet and in an historic neighborhood. We had a nice weekend getaway and were able to recharge our batteries for the busy week ahead.

    An Excellent Place to Stay!!

    We were very pleased upon entering the room! Although everything seemed to be perfectly placed just for us, we felt very encouraged to make ourselves at home. It was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast and we really enjoyed the privacy it offered. Our only encounter with others was during breakfast when the Wainwright's brought their breakfast dishes to the sink and simply said "hello". We absolutely loved the whirlpool and the DVD library! I highly recommend this to everyone, as we are planning to stay again! :)
