On-street parking on a hill

Great view, beautiful property and helpful host.

Stayed in May 2024

It was a fun and historic location with great views from the bluff and walking access to downtown.

It was made clear that breakfast is not provided on weekdays. It would be good if it had been available.

Amazing house. Comfortable bed.

Nothing I didn’t like.

The view is amazing! Quiet location! Excellent host!!!

Stayed in August 2023

Not much in the way of breakfast.

Great location and view! Wish I had more time to just relax on the porch.

Only on street parking

Amazing architecture and extremely helpful host

Stayed in September 2023

We were disappointed that there was no breakfast served or a happy hour. This tells me the owners aren't on the premises. Parking is on street and challenging as the B&B sits high on a hill.

Location is a big bonus. Room was large.

The parking that's it.

The view from the porch was beautiful.

Nowhere on the Booking.com app does the Inn state that breakfast is NOT served during weekdays, they only serve breakfast on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I was notified about this AFTER I had already booked and paid for my reservation on Booking.com. I felt like this was misleading. Luckily I had a Friday night reservation so I was served breakfast on Saturday morning. Otherwise, I would have been extremely disappointed had I booked a room during a weekday and not served breakfast at a "Bed and Breakfast".

Excellent location, accommodations, and beautiful porch overlooking Dubuque above the city.

Bread and jelly would have been a nice addition.

We knew a full breakfast would not be served on weekdays. Cereal,juice, milk and coffee were available.

Being up on the hill was great with excellent views.

No Kleenex or garbage can in the room.

Breakfast was fine. Bed was comfortable.

Showe in our room was very hard to get in and out. There could have been a rubber slip mat available to stand on and a bath mat as you stepped out.

Breakfast could have been hotter and more fresh fruit. It was nice to be together with the other guests sharing conversation. We liked the host sharing historical information and questions with us. The parking was not the best on the street.

No breakfast

Beautiful home. Staff when u saw them were friendly

Stayed in November 2022

There was no breakfast served, despite being listed as a bed AND BREAKFAST facility. Also, although this was a beautiful historic home, there was very little information to be found about the history of the house and its tenants. We were greeted by an employee who told us the basics about staying in the home, but we never met the host.

Beautiful home, well kept up and clean, with lots of interesting features.

We liked our stay very much! I now realize that breakfasts are featured only on weekends but a weekday treat would really complete the B&B experience! For example, leaving a carafe of hot coffee and a "home-baked" item to wake up to either outside the bedroom door or in the dining room. Thank you!

The beautiful house, the extra blankets and pillows in the room, the key in the door, the TV in the room, other friendly guests, and the affordable rate.

Parking

Didn’t eat breakfast

Stayed in October 2022

On the booking site, breakfast was advertised as included. In reality, breakfast only available on weekends and only at 8:30. Also, the room was advertised as having a terrace. In reality, there was a porch in the front of the house. Nice, but not a private terrace. The room was spacious and pretty, but a little noisy. The bed mattress was not the best.

Location was good. The house and rooms were beautiful.

Hard to work the bath/shower. Hot water could get scalding hot. Couch and bed lumpy.

Wonderful host! Large room and bathroom!

Stayed in September 2022

Bathroom door didn't close well. Just needs a little love. Needed more ice. Some simple breakfast foods during the week( cereal, toast, pastries) would be great. There was plenty of parking, but the streets are curvy, narrow, and STEEP. Be prepared. The location does add to the charm.

Simon was a delightful host! Good breakfast. Elaine was so welcoming. The house is quiet and beautiful and not far from Dubuque attractions.

Stayed in September 2022

Steps and no elevator. No rails next to steps leading to house from street parking. Host had a negative attitude which was not welcoming. We were not allowed to bring family we were visiting to see the house or watch fireworks from the porch/yard.

Didn’t eat breakfast as time was not convenient to our schedule. Location was fine. Room was fine. House was historic and beautifully restored. Helpful info about the community was available.

NO Breakfast....

Beautiful HOUSE!!

Stayed in June 2022

the Hancock House is a beautiful home, tastefully decorated with antiques. The view from the front porch is worth the trip to Dubuque on its own.
