Only had one small garbage can in the bathroom and thought that was weird, otherwise everything was great, very friendly girls at check in, and the guy bartending did a good job with a fairly rowdy crowd and he kept the bar open well past the 10pm closing time 🙂

Very disappointed that this property lists area shuttle but no longer shuttles you to the Brewers games unless you've added the Brewers package, which isn't an option to do on Expedia. Was willing to pay the fee to add the Brewers package but was told we couldn't since we booked thru a 3rd party. Please update your property information. Our room was decent, did have an odd smell and broken blinds. Hotel claims to be smoke free, but both elevators smelled like marijuana, and so did the lobby. Check out is at 11 but at 10:30 housekeeping was knocking on our door to get in the room.

Definitely run down and explains why it was available and at what appeared to be a reasonable rate for a sold out situation due to concert at Am Fam Field. No fitted sheet on our bed, just a flat that didn't cover the mattress so we were laying on the plastic or rubber mattress cover. Definitely not worth the rate after staying there and will not be back unless a remodel is done. Only pro was that it was close proximity to Am Fam Field.

We were very grateful that we could get a room in short notice. We needed to get a room close to the hospital for my wife’s emergency appointment. We are also happy to know that the hotel offers a shuttle bus to home Milwaukee Brewers games and would like to take advantage of that service and stay package on our next trip.

I'm a Milwaukee native, and was back visiting family. I chose this hotel because it was close to where they live. Staff were very friendly. But the condition of the property needs attention. The curtains in my room were torn, and there was mold around the caulking in the shower. Gross! However, the rest of my room was clean and comfortable. Free coffee in the morning was nice, but the option of a $15 breakfast was disappointing and pricey! Also, no maid services unless requested. On my next trip back, I'll be looking for other accomodations.

Room was clean. Staff were friendly. The restaurant is not open even though advertised. We tried to stop by the bar at 945pm and it was not open. Staff working at checkout said weekends it is usually open later than 9 but wasn’t real sure why it wasn’t. Not sure it has been open at all during our stay. Would stay again and we do recommend it however don’t plan on a restaurant or bar.

This is our second stay. The beds are incredibly comfy and the rooms are always clean! Staff is amazing and very friendly! Overall the hotel is great. There is minor weather and tear on some of the wood areas of furniture, but it's nothing uncommon with frequent guests on and out that is common in all hotels. This is my preferred stay for the Milwaukee area!

Our roo. was nice and clean and the staff was very friendly. The only things that I didn't like was the fact that they charge $40 for late check out and someone was banging on our door a little after 9 in the morning, which interrupted my rest. It was pretty noisy with doors slamming in the morning. I'm not sure if it was staff cleaning rooms or guests going in and out of rooms.

When I made the reservation, it said breakfast included. While I was checking in I was told breakfast was not only included and that it would be an extra 15 dollars per day. None of the days I was down there was there any food in any of the trays or anyone to be found to serve breakfast. Somewhat disappointing that something is not as advertised.

Response from Mayra on 31 Jan 2024
Hello Jose, I am very sorry about your poor experience. Due to some staffing issues our breakfast is served until 9 am, and currently only served on week day mornings. I have looked through your reservation notes and I can not find where breakfast included was advertised with this rate, if you have more insight I would appreciate it. Again, we are truly sorry about the negative experience.
