The Old Jail and FIrehouse Guest Suite is a a one-room suite complete with kitchen, dining area,…read morequeen bed, day bed/trundle and small fold-out bed. There is a quiet courtyard as well. When we arrived in McGregor, we were immediately greeted by Richard and Charlene who made sure we parked in a safe location. Richard helped with our bags. As we entered the suite, our senses are bombarded with an Americana motif taken to the nth degree. Almost every square inch is decorated by images and pictures of the old jail and firehouse. The Palucci's will fill you in on the history of the jail and some interesting stories. in addition, there are old trickets and toys representing firemen and the jail theme. Charlene's father was a fireman in Chicago and she has a tribute of him displayed in the kitchen area. Just about every square inch of this room is covered with something. Even the ceiling is wallpapered. If you have sensitivity to sensory overload then this is definitely not the place for you. But, if you appreciate the time and care that went into trying to make this one-room reflect the history of the town, then you will really appreciate the decor and ambiance. Although not officially a Bed and Breakfast, the Palucci's have generously stocked the fridge with pastries and cinnamon rolls, milk, juice, jellies, etc. The pantry has coffee, teas, and snacks. Richard and Charlene have gone out of their way to make sure you can make your way through all the switches and amenities that the place has to offer. In fact, they have written directions for EVERYTHING in the room. There are directions for which light switch is for which area of the room, how to turn the key to open the door, how long to keep the A/C running. You'll either find it endearing or eccentric. Another consideration is the location to Main Street. The room itself if just feet from Main Street and the Mississippi River is only about 4 blocks. But, with the big picture window open, all passerby's can see in. Not a big deal since you can close the blinds for privacy (there's even a note on how to do that). Overall, we really enjoyed our visit at the Old Jail and Firehouse Guest Suite. We found it clean and comfortable. We really appreciated the friendliness and care from RIchard and Charlene. We would definitely stay there again!

Ice cream from 7-8 is a nice treat on a hot day. Breakfast with fresh-made eggs is a good way to start the day. The room was quiet, perfectly clean & had all the basic amenities. The bed is not for short people. It was so high off the floor I couldn't easily sit on it. I had to dive on and then situate myself. And a couple things need attention...the night light didn't work + the windows were dirty/foggy so seeing outside was impossible. Be sure to ask for a ground floor room if hauling your luggage up the stairs is a challenge.

Big selection of of yogurts! Fresh fruit and too much more to list! All fresh and tastey! If we ever pass through we will for sure stay here!!

Google had the hotel listed for $104. Big difference. Lucy refused to honor it and I was told I had to go through a 3rd party to get that price. Which according to Lucy could take minutes to hours to show up on their system. Surprise - it took hours and they refused to give us a key even though they had all of our info and a confirmation number. There's literally 2 cars in the parking lot. It's not like they should be turning down customers. My husband got involved and she was rude to him. If we weren't so exhausted from driving and the trouble and money already invested in the non refundable reservation we would have gone elsewhere. Had we known about the noise and lights we would have. Every room has earplugs for a reason! You can throw a rock and hit a train and a gas station. Train blows its horn at least every half hour right outside the hotel. The only gas station in town is right outside your window. Lovely view of glaring lights through the curtains that don't close properly. Every truck and motorcycle (which is everyone) with no muffler takes off like a bat out of hell with absolutely no regard for any possible people either in the hotel or in any other building. Barney Fife hides up the hill and nabs everyone rolling through the stop sign right outside your window. Two tv remotes and neither controls the obnoxious volume then wouldn't shut the tv off. We just unplugged it. Nothing about this hotel is worth the full price. Nothing is worth any discounted price. Do yourself a favor and go anywhere else!

Does NOT allow pets. :-( Owners have a few too many rules, such as: * No beverages what-so- ever in pool area....I just wanted my coffee * Require you put a lid on your coffee before leaving the 5'x5' square breakfast area (not an issue for us but I thought it odd, especially since the lids were hard to get on....so I just used my BlackEarth Java tumbler :-) ). Workout area was in the hot pool area and you have to walk through the busy eating area if you want to swim in the AM.
