Being close to the interstate made it noisy. The thru wall a/c was a bad choice for such a location. It lets the road noise right in.

The room was spotless and the lobby had a pool table which was amazing after we returned from our concert. Parking on the street is free over the weekend so we scored free parking right around the corner from the hotel! The staff was also very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

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.
