I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The staff were exceptional, with Ricky and Oscar going above and beyond to help me out during my visit. The rooms were impeccably clean, and the bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in. I truly appreciated the hotel’s prime location, which made sightseeing in Milwaukee so convenient. However, I was expecting a bit more variety in the breakfast options and the Wi-Fi was an extra charge, which felt a bit unnecessary for the price I paid.
