Fantastically Beautiful
The exterior first impression was a bit worrisome, it is a work in progress. The interior is fantastically beautiful. The host gave us a great tour and the breakfast was delicious. We will return.

Love the Richards House!
We really enjoyed our stay here! This was our second time staying at the Richards House and I absolutely love the historic charm and sheer beauty of the interior that has been so lovingly restored. The owners are very kind and accommodating and make you feel right at home. The breakfast was top notch and the whole stay was an incredible value for the money!

This is a very old house ( over one hundred years old building) turned into B&B, outside of the house needs lots of work. The living and dining room are the best parts we enjoyed our breakfast and piano practice time. Also breakfast was fantastic!

Not To Be Forgotten
This is not a place you will ever forget. It is Historic with a capital H, and on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a huge classic mansion from 1883, and the exterior is so rough that I originally thought I was in the wrong place. The interior, however, is amazing, mostly original right down to the original books from the family that owned it for more than 100 years. This place is special. If you have ever wanted to spend a night in a historic mansion, this is the place. The price is very reasonable, it's near Mario's Italian Restaurant, and Dubuque turned out to be much more interesting than I expected.

We had a great stay along with our dog. Our room was quiet and comfortable. The room had a window A/C so we were able to control the temperature. There were beverages and cookies available throughout the day. The breakfast was hearty and tasty. We would recommend staying here!

The food at this B and B was amazing!! The decor in this 1880’s house was very quaint-it appears that the couple is continuing on updates on this old home.
