Nice downtown hotel
Lovely hotel, excellent staff. Loved the pillows! Wish they had potatoes to go with the eggs instead of 3 meat options at breakfast.

6/10 Good

Stayed here for one night while attending a concert at Riverside Theatre. It is about a 10 minute walk. Hotel was OK, could have been cleaner. There was hair all over the bathroom. We parked next-door at the parking garage, it was cheaper than their valet.
Vicki, 1-night trip

Parking walking down street at 0500. Nor good that ramp not attached to motel

Inconvenience
Place had a very nice continental breakfast I'll give them that. Parking and no direct walking to the hotel is an inconvenience. Having to carry your bags through a parking ramp and walk to hotel sucks.

Looking forward to staying again. Very nice hotel, we came in for the Jezzy Concert, Theater was nearby and walkable
Jennifer, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and clean
This motel is nice, clean and is very close to all the stuff that Milwaukee has to offer. Breakfast was good. Nothing fancy but definitely did the job. My only complaint is you must pay for parking in a garage. But the price of the motel stay was cheaper than most making up for the parking. All in all, it was a good 1 night stay and we slept great after a very long concert. Which was much needed.

Great stay in great area of Milwaukee
Great location and very clean rooms. The continental breakfast was great with plenty of options. The valet parking was confusing on our arrival and we chose to park in structure next to property because the valet area was to busy.

Downtown Milwaukee
Only complaint was that the noise from the water running through the sewer line down through the walls from the toilet flushing and the shower draining in the room above us was really loud.
Jo Ann, 1-night trip

Great option
Good hotel, excellent location, good breakfast, staff super friendly, I love kisses chocolates when check in, the only comment is $39+taxes for valet parking a bit expensive
Marcelo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location was great and walkable to a lot. Staff was friendly. The room has a leftover mint on the floor but other than that was clean. Bathroom was clean. Would stay here again.
Sendy, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The heating system could use some attention. The fan in our original room was so loud we could barely hear one another. We were moved to another room which was overall okay, but the fan kicked in so loudly once in the middle of the night that we both jolted out of bed to turn off the heat. The stay was otherwise great!
