I would actually give it 4-1/2 stars if I could. It's not the Ritz, but I didn't expect it to be. The price is very reasonable, and our stay was great. Price was an issue for us, so we booked the lowest price queen room, and on arrival we were upgraded to a king leisure suite. The room was quite... More

i guess unless you request a special suite, you get a normal room like we had. boring decor with dated furniture. the suites might be a little gaudy for most people, so it would be nice if regular rooms could be updated. the pool and hot tub area looked nice. breakfast was the usual...good enough. there's no covered entrance for...

Stayed here last night in the CAVE. Awesome it was. All the motel was very clean and the staff was awesome. We will definitely go there again. The Bfast was plenty and changes every day. They put up a list of what will be what day. That was nice. Coffee was excellent too. Nice pool that is both inside and... More

Felt very welcome! Clean hotel in a beautiful city. Will be returning with our kids and also for our couples get away. The front desk saw had disability and offered a few options in order to make my stay and getting around easier and enjoyable. The room very clean and the patio opens to beautiful wooded lot.

Have stayed in the Lincoln room before & loved it. This time we stayed in another room. Both were very clean & quiet. Loved the indoor outdoor pool & hot tub. The breakfast bar was well stocked & good. Staff is always friendly & helpful. The hotel is close to the downtown area. Will definitely go back again.

Although we booked this hotel through Priceline on a "deal" for just under $100, it felt more like a dated Motel 6 than anything else. The bed was squeaky/worn, the room fixtures dated, and the carpet faded and threadbare in spots. You could hear a lot of noise from adjacent rooms and the road, even though it didn't seem like...

We stayed here last year and enjoyed the Lincoln "designer" room. This year we had a very large room, #118, at the end of the building, with its window and balcony looking out over a forest. A bit too late in the season for the fireplace but it looked good anyway. Quiet and pleasant! And very reasonably priced.

This motel was exactly what we wanted. Close to town, nice breakfast included, comfortable rooms and pleasant staff. We wanted a room facing the back so we could sit out and enjoy a glass of wine and have a view of the woods. The pool area was enjoyable. The wifi worked in the room as promised. We used the microwave... More

Overall, my experience at the BW Designer Inn & Suites was very good. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. Our room was clean, nicely updated and the shower was awesome! Close to downtown Galena.
