Room was much larger and had much more character and charm than traditional hotels. Very dog friendly. They provided a great home cooked breakfast included in the price. It was more quiet than in traditional hotels. It will be our first choice in the future when staying in Dubuque. Lots of street parking available. Owners have done a great job of maintaining this building’s original character, furniture, and fixtures while modernizing it. Beautiful new walking shower in our room. Some rooms had clawfoot tubs.

This is a property that has been in gradual renovation since the 1980's by the owners who manage the Richards House and is indeed their labor of love so understand that you are entering with the knowledge that it is in status of renovation. You'll love all the original parts and pieces that remain present since the 1800's. We'll be back.

The property had a lot of character and I’m sure when the renovations are completed it will be even more gorgeous! The antique furniture, light fixtures etc. only added to it’s charm. The couple running it were as sweet as pie and the breakfast provided was absolutely delicious!

History and charm
The history of the building was interesting and I really appreciated the woodwork and craftsmanship of the house itself. My room was quiet and comfortable. The hosts were friendly and helpful. They asked what I wanted for breakfast and when I would like to have it ready. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.
