We were in Milwaukee for a wedding. The hotel was in walking distance to the venue. Check in was easy, the staff was great. The room was clean. The only thing I would say that needs to be changed, would be the shower heads. There was a lack of water pressure. I know they are water saving but, you have to stay in the shower longer to rinse off.

Rooms are large, modern and very clean. The breakfast was very nice. The ad on Expedia stated there’s an outdoor pool. There is not. That information should be corrected.

Loved it!

We loved the options at the breakfast bar! Check in was super easy, and the diy “best spots in the area” white board was amazing for recommendations!! The room was clean & it felt super safe on property.

Average Stay

Our experience was about average. The staff were extremely friendly. There were no issues there. The few complaints I have are as follows: - Parking: With only one valet, it’s difficult when returning and you have to wait for them to get back to hand off your keys. - Housekeeping: Our room did not get cleaned. We kept our ‘do not disturb’ sign on the door until late morning, but when we left, the housekeeper was right outside our door working on the room next to us and saw us leaving. Still no service that day. - Misc: room temperature was difficult to adjust (one degree was a significant temperature change); window shade pulley was broken and we were not able to adjust; room light was difficult to get to in the far corner behind the bed

Friendliness sets them apart

The staff were incredibly kind which really sets this experience apart. We were hoping to check in early as I was sick and while the staff weren't able to get us in immediately, they worked really hard to get us a room as soon as possible, they showed sympathy for how I was feeling, remembered my name from a phone call earlier in the day, and were just all around kind. When we checked out the next day, the man at the front desk asked how I was feeling and said he hoped I continued to feel better. Everyone was just so kind - the experience all around was great.
