Clean quiet property
Walking distance to downtown, trails, and brewery. Clean property, well stocked, easy check in. It is a dark area of town at night and we would have liked more comfortable seating than the two fold up chairs. Actual chairs owould have been appreciated.

Cute, clean and comfortable
We frequently visit Decorah and this was our first non hotel stay. Definitely would stay here again except dogs are not allowed and this was an atypical weekend that she could not be with us. Location a block from Aase if visiting any family who reside there. Easy walk to downtown, convenient parking and clear communication with host.
