Wonderful hotel in great location

This hotel was just perfect for our weekend stay in Milwaukee; very clean and great hospitality. It is in the perfect location and walking distance of The Third Ward - home to many great cafes and boutiques. Also very close to The Public Market where there are equally many goodies and treats. I especially enjoyed the ease of valet parking. I will definitely be staying here again.

8/10 Very good

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.
Robin, 1-night trip

Parking walking down street at 0500. Nor good that ramp not attached to motel
Sue, 1-night trip

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

6/10 Good

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.
Tina, 1-night trip

Awesome hotel, great location, great staff

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.
