Every aspect of this property is tidy and thoughtfully appointed, from the room, to the gardens, to the common areas of the home. We discovered another delightful detail each day and still reminisce about how much we enjoyed our time in Decorah. The handmade (organic, locally sourced) breakfast items and timely, detailed communications with our hosts were especially on-point -- a real treat in the commodified/digital age of travel. If you're looking for centrally located lodging of GREAT VALUE in Decorah, please give this property a long look. You will not be disappointed.

The beds were SO comfy, the breakfasts were perfectly delicious, and the entire place was spotless. The hosts (including Axel, their charming son) were accommodating and friendly yet unobtrusive. My mom hasn't stopped talking about it - the robes were a big hit. We're planning to return for a week in the Inspiration Suite. Thank you!

I stayed here with a group of friends when we were all attending a conference in town. We stayed…read morefor a couple nights. This place was a great idea and much cheaper than one of the mediocre hotels in town after we split the cost. It's a very nice setting. I'm docking a star due to the single bathroom and the fact that the bathroom door wouldn't quite close all the way. Otherwise we had a great stay. The firewood pile was a bit light and we inquired about getting more from the owners and they were very responsive and brought us a big pile within an hour. The owners were also very good about our multiple billing since we split the cost five ways.

After paying my respects to my dear friend and her mom at Howard Cemetery, I felt the need to see…read moremore of Elma, IA. I typically leave and head north. I decided to change my habit and check out downtown Elma. You pretty much blink and you've seen the entire downtown core. I saw a huge sign with Elma on it and decided to turn onto that street. I'm glad that I did. I ended up parking in front of Elma Welcome Center. I was there on a Sunday afternoon. Parking is free. If you are a volunteer at the school museum that is behind the welcome center, you have your own designated spot. Nice! There are a couple of benches in front of the welcome center. I am curious to find out how one goes about getting a bench dedicated. Everything in this area was closed, so I couldn't ask anyone. The dedication is a nice touch. The welcome center had a note saying that it was open this Spring. Well, it's here! Sadly, I didn't see the hours of operation. There is a school museum behind the welcome center. I peered through the window like the curious person that I am. It was like staring into a period frozen in time. It felt real. I'm guessing that it's a snapshot around the early 1900's. It's a one-room schoolhouse. The bell outside the school museum was cool. It was donated. I tried to ring it, but nothing happened. Perhaps if it were a working bell, I'd wake up everyone in Elma... haha! I hope to visit the welcome center again when it's open. It's across from the water tower and city hall. Elma is such a small city, with a population of over 500 people. It's a town to me, but I have enjoyed learning about where my friend and her mom spent many years here. (115)

We wanted to get to the brewery at a time that wasn't on Jim's schedule and he was very accommodating and came and picked us up within 5 minutes of us calling him. Awesome. He was just as available when we wanted to head back to our hotel. My main issue? No where on any advertisement did it say that it cost $10/person one way, and we didn't find out until half way through the drive to the brewery. The perfect storm of confusion: -The Toppling Goliath website said they had shuttles -There was no price listed on his schedule -There WAS a price listed on the schedule of the other shuttle company. -We we're not asked to pay when we boarded the bus. -The front desk staff told us "the other company costs $10" (and in hindsight she must have made the same assumptions we did) ...all of which made us assume the shuttle was free. Now I get that Jim wasn't driving out of the goodness of his heart. Everyone has to make a living. But we assumed someone else was paying him, obviously incorrectly. SO. While we were annoyed that we didn't know the cost ahead of time, I'll still give it four stars. He was super quick, but should have told us before we boarded that it cost $10.
