    I would like to start by saying the Mont Rest Could possibly receive better stars rating if it wasn't for COVID-19. The building itself is a beautiful historic mansion with historic and antiques throughout. Friends and I decided to come to the murder mystery weekend which included dinner the night of the murder mystery and breakfast in the morning. The dinner was absolutely flavorful, amazing, beautifully prepared, and delightful. The downfall of this dinner was the COVID-19 precautions. The Murder mystery followed the age old script of love and lust , money and power and someone "Done it" because they didn't get what they wanted. There are many choices of bedrooms. See their website for details. https://www.montrest.com/guest-rooms The room we chose had a spiral staircase that led up to a private bedroom and a private deck with a hot tub overlooking a beautiful eastern view of the Mississippi River. The bed could use an upgrade as it felt like it was part of the antique Decour. Not A comfortable nights sleep. Breakfast in the morning was fit for king and queens delicious array of choices. I would recommend staying at the Mont Rest. Give them a chance and be selective of your bed size and room. Hopefully Covid precautions will be over with when you stay.

    Great place to spend the weekend! The Great Gatsby themed dinner was 10-phenomenal courses of food. You will be licking the plate clean!

My bad…read moreexperience started when I called about getting in early and was told she was in the middle of serving breakfast for 24 and would have to get back with me. That was just the beginning of the unprofessionalism. No apology, just short. The last time we had stayed in the Froggy cabin, it was not split into two cabins. Not knowing this, I just rented the one side. We had to walk through the bedroom to get to the one bathroom, day and night. We would not have rented the cabin if we knew it had one bathroom, especially since one guest is pregnant. When I called about it, I couldn't believe the non professional handling of the situation. I was told they cabin had always been that way and I was wrong. Not true! They split it the winter after we had stayed in 2021. Things would have turned out so differently if it had been handled professionally instead of confrontational. The adjacent cabin was not being rented for the next two nights and could have been offered to us at a discounted rate, but they were willing to not make any money on the empty side, plus disappoint us. We made it work with what we had and then on our last night, the adjacent cabin was rented. They must have had control of the thermostat (who would split cabins and have one thermostat?!) The bedroom and upstairs loft were so hot and stuffy! Two infants, as well as the parents, did not sleep well that night! You could hear their voices and cooking at 12:30, which they have the right to do, but we have the right not to hear it. I tried to work something out with the owner, but to no avail. I did receive a call asking me to accept an apology from the person I spoke with on the phone. (She manages to get one more confrontation in on this call!) My daughter in law's family spent thousands of dollars between the cabins and Mont Rest, but not again. So sad something could not have been worked out.

    Dear YELP Readers,…read more This is what I wrote to Ramona of Le Fevre Inn and Resort in Galena IL after the 4 Sista Girls Spent a wonderful Weekend retreat there !!!! The Sista Girl Club Can't Wait to Go BACK to LeFevre Inn & Resort and Galena given it's awesome scenic, quaint, friendly, and culturally diverse surroundings. It started about 6 months out when the owner Ramona responded to my many inquiries quickly and with great suggestions and discounts. We actually spent Friday, October 6 through Sunday, October 8th, 2017 there which was in the middle of the County Fair which was an unexpected added bonus. The ~ 3 hour drive was priceless as we drove up to paradise. The photos don't give it justice; the Gazebo, Pavilion, outdoor fire pit, indoor fire place, and our all equipped cozy inn with the cute balcony and "BAR" : that's another story for another time ;) and private parking was more than accommodating. Even the cloudy, misty, partly sunny, 60 to 70 degree weather didn't deter the four of us from having a great time. The quick easy 2 x a day drive into Galena downtown was full of wonderful surprises starting with Denise and our highly recommended Tri-State Trolley one hour tour back into Historical time and our driver/tour guide Johnny was full of character, fun facts, and great stories. Shopping at Poopsies for sum thin sum thin you never thought you would want; you'll get IT when you get there;was hilarious and the sales people jumped in to make us feel HAPPY and the discounts were priceless. Brunch at tasty Las Aztecas and Dinner at the Famous Fried Green Tomatoes was fabulous with quick friendly, service, cozy welcoming ambience, plenty of food, and huge variety of drinks. Twice we just had to stop and return to Galena's River Wine and Cheese where owners Bryon and Julie and the gang treated us special; great free tasting of wine, cheese, olive oils, dips...specially made. We did leave a lil sum thin sum thin behind for y'all to purchase. We will be back and I'm preparing my Sista Girl Scrapbook to share our experience with our family and friends. Love and Hugs, Sistas Belinda/Heart, Sheila/Free, Darlene/Sunshine, and me, Linda "Too Tall"/Happy I would love to try and take advantage of your very generous offer...I will pass this along to the other Sista Girls to see if they can afford it. I may need to pass since I have to pay for a destination wedding in 6 months...for a friend :) Love and Many Hugs, Sista Linda Too Tall Happy PS: Have also shared the Good/G-D news on Trip Advisor too.

We couldn't find door 9 which was frustrating late at night with no one to call. It was the only door inside another door where both 9&10 were. Once in the room someone else's food was in the fridge. We needed the fridge to put food in and had no choice to put our food in a fridge that was not cleaned out. The fridge and A/C tan all night and that bothered my husband. The rest of the room looked clean, the beds were pretty comfortable. You have to remember your at an older motel, so it was dated. The other issue was in the morning a big dog ran at me growled and barked. I'm very nervous with dogs I don't know. The owner did not pick up on the fact that the dog terrified me... he just said no but did not grab the dog. Despite those things I do feel as though Arthur tries to make you comfortable, he apologized for the food in the fridge. It is quaint and it's beautiful hill country. I also learned the next morning that he drew a map on the envelope for where to find our room. I would have appreciated if he had described it over the phone. I can see the effort that was made. They do bring you coffee and cream in the morning and we were brought cookies. Having a fridge that was not cleaned out led me to wonder how well everything else is cleaned. I don't mind dated as long as it's clean and comfortable. There's room for improvement.

Our bathroom featured a claw-foot freestanding tub, which was fine for us but could be a challenge for older or mobility-challenged guests. The happy hour at 5:00 each evening offered wine and a simple cheese plate, which Jordana prepared. Breakfast each morning was a full 3-4 courses, which was really delicious and served promptly at 8:30. We enjoyed chatting with other guests at breakfast and learning about their adventures in Galena. Communication with the Inn was frequent and easy. Note that the former "Potting Shed" is now a Sauna space. The Inn is within about a 15-minute walking distance of downtown, and a 10-minute walk to Grant's home. Great stay, highly recommended.

The host was very nice and cooked for us an amazing three course breakfast each morning. It was like we had a gourmet meal unlike our usual breakfasts when we go out and certainly not like what we eat at home. We really enjoyed the other guests at breakfast and our 5:00 happy hour with a plate of cheeses and crackers with wine was wonderful. Sometimes we spent up to two hours or more just sitting around talking with them. The host even went out of her way to purchase beer for us which made it extra special touch for us. Thank you so much for making our first experience a good one. Highly recommend!
