I had a frustrating experience at Wyndham Worldmark in Galena. Although the location is convenient and the room was decent, the major issue was the lack of water during our stay. The customer service was lacking, especially when trying to resolve the problem. I ended up checking out early, which completely ruined our trip. On the positive side, the area around the hotel was nice, and we later enjoyed a wonderful stay at another resort nearby.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel, appreciating the peaceful atmosphere and fantastic front desk staff. The studio suite was more than just a basic hotel room, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. However, I was aware of some maintenance issues that could impact future visits, such as the well water situation and construction on the roof. Overall, it was a magical experience, especially during the holiday season.

Our stay was marred by significant issues, including a lack of water that made it impossible to shower or use the toilet in the morning. The room itself had cleanliness concerns, with a worn-out carpet and an unappealing jetted tub. On the upside, the location was picturesque, nestled in a quiet wooded area, and the staff was somewhat responsive to our inquiries. However, overall, it was not a good value for what we experienced.

Facilities were subpar, with nothing notable aside from a game room that didn’t really make up for the other issues we faced.

While the WorldMark offered a quiet retreat just outside of downtown Galena, the unique room configuration and small Murphy bed made for a less comfortable experience for taller guests. The clean facilities and relaxing pool area added to an enjoyable stay, and the minor bumps didn't overshadow the overall pleasant atmosphere. It was great to find a place that seemed to cater to adults only, allowing for a truly relaxing getaway.

The room had an interesting layout with a Murphy bed that felt a bit cramped for two, especially since my husband is quite tall. The small kitchen area was a nice touch for light cooking.

I had a great stay at Worldmark Galena! The peaceful atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing getaway, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. The rooms were well-equipped, though I initially found the Murphy bed a bit cramped. It’s a little remote, but I enjoyed being away from the tourist hustle. However, the limited cooking space and some minor design flaws dampened the experience slightly.
