It was ok .. except that you couldn't close the bathroom door at all! And if you are afraid of the dark, bring a waterproof light for the shower...walls are dark, curtain is black and shower is black with no lighting around it. I liked the black towels!!
I did have to go back and ask for the WiFi password - the guy was surprised that I didn't get it earlier.
Saturday breakfast was great!! Dunkin and Starbucks... you'll never go wrong with that!!
3.1
Good location near the baseball field. Easy parking and access to room. Price is okay. Nice place to stay for a one night visit.
3.1
The hotel was nice, the location is great and the breakfast was fantastic. My expectations were low, and I was very happily surprised.
3.1
It was ok. I couldn’t open the door to the room at first, then it was fixed. They charged me twice for the room and then said it would take 3-5 days to get my refund. Overall it was unsatisfactory.
3.1
Good place.
3.1
Recently I stayed at a Hilton hotel and hands down I would stay here again over the Hilton! Fabulous service and they've done a really great job giving the place a fresh and cozy look and feel
3.1
Clean room. Friendly staff. Would stay again
3.1
This is a very nice small hotel/motel. It was well run, and everyone was friendly. Check-in was easy, and my room was clean and nice.
3.1
The staff were friendly, and helpful: as other reviewers have noted the air conditioner units are portable and in my room the exhaust simply would not remain in the outlet (despite the copious amounts of tape) but it was cool enough to not need to use it.
It is a little bit noisy due to the setup but when most/all were sleeping it was very quiet. Unfortunately if someone chooses to have a loud conversation in a room or in the courtyard it is very easy to hear them; or if someone is pressure cleaning with an air compressor (!).
The surrounding area is economically disadvantaged and whilst I felt safe walking about during daylight hours, I would not necessarily go off premises alone, or except to get straight into an uber or similar transport service.
All in all, I liked the staff who were friendly and helpful, and the premises are about what one would expect for a motel of its age that has clearly had some reasonable work done on it to improve it.
3.1
Very good
3.1
Overall the cleanliness was very good. We were just surprised that the sheets were a dark blue color so you could see every speck of lint on the sheets from the blankets. So that made me question if the sheets were really clean or not.
3.1
Staff was very very nice. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Enjoyed our stay!!
3.1
Clean rooms. To get hot water it took about 15 minutes. They advertised there’s a bar and lounge. Not true
3.1
There was drugs left from the previous visit, the room was clean besides that. I took photos with my little brothers phone and dns provided those later on I just don’t have them in my phone.
3.1
Ok, yes it was CLEAN. But I was SOOO unimpressed with a few things... The bed mattress had a thick plastic cover on it with a THIN fitted sheet over it. This encouraged heavy sweating and an uncomfortable night (not to mention the fitted sheet constantly falling off the mattress all night long. So I had to put a thick blanket under me to be able to sleep without a wetness below me (blanket not provided). I feel after looking at previous reviews they had an issue with bed bugs so that was the reason for the plastic?? THEN, the signs. EVERYWHERE! Upon checking in there was a sign saying "We Have the right to refuse anyone." Um? Yeah, nice first impression...and a guest was refused while we checked in. In the room there are signs about how if you took anything by intent or accident you'd receive a ticket from the Milwaukee Police. Huh?? And another sign about how to treat the room and to NOT SMOKE (I don't) and if you did what would happen. Also, in the bathroom a sign of "Wait 7-10 minutes for the water to get hot." They weren't lying. How about FIX IT? And the water pressure was BAD. All these signs just THREATENING YOU! The A/C was an indoor unit that was poorly secured to the window. Didn't feel safe. There were lights outside the room that LIT THE ROOM and though the listing touts "Black out shades" that they were NOT. Lights into the room all night long. This place could improve in a few slight ways, but if it remains what is is now, I will NOT be going back. Regardless of
3.1
They don't give you toiletries, the ice is bad, never got clean towels and the breakfast was horrible
3.1
Not much to say apart from the centipede in the shower.
3.1
Room was freezing. Heater didnt work. Reception did not answer the phone. Had to open a gate manualy by myself to get in so i had to park outside. The website said parking available. Then they sent me an email trying to charge for parking but at the property said nothing about it
3.1
Lots of updates have been made to this place, so even though it's an older building, almost all the furniture/decor looks really new and the beds were comfortable. But there were still a few things that were not great – first, it would be a simple but huge improvement to provide each bathroom with its own small garbage can and with a bathmat, not just towels, since the shower stall water soaked out onto the bathroom floor, with nothing to sop it up with. (There was also zero shelf/counter-space in the bathroom.) Second, the description of my economy room said it included a "desk" but it did not! The descriptions should be changed to be accurate. Third, it was true that there was AC, but it was a "portable" AC unit, venting out the window with a huge hose – it worked fine but was VERY noisy. Last, quite a bit of sunlight still came through the curtains very early in the morning, even though we had tried to pull them tightly. Other than those things, I can tell that a lot of effort has been put into improving the place, but it was still not a very quiet/pleasant place to spend time, other than the beds being decently comfortable.
3.1
I enjoyed the room. I found a great restaurant nearby. Made a cup of coffee in the morning. I was offered donuts and could fee, but I’m not a sweets guy.
3.1
Pace was much nicer than I had expected , all the renovations seem to be making a big difference.
3.1
This is the cutest little quirky kitschy motel. The decor is over the top! It's an old building but the owners have done a great job keeping it up. And the staff couldn't be nicer! They helped us get a ride to get where we needed to go and to come back to the motel. They provide a continental breakfast with actually good food. Quiet and friendly. Beautiful temple across the street. Just a nice experience all together. :)
3.1
You can’t have visitors. The room had a space heater.
3.1
Extremely upset. We got there and saw that it was closed. NO NOTIFICATION of it being closed. I expect my money back
3.1
it was nice
3.1
My room was better than I expected in every regard. This is still a motel (bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper) but I’d stay here again and again!
3.1
The place was dark and small corridors. There was a portable AC in the room, no trash cans, shower walls had stuff stuck to them. We got charged $20 to park in there parking lot.The "breakfast" was dunken donuts set up in a dark hallway! When our uber drove us back she told us it was a hooker hotel. Definitely do not recommend this place.
3.1
Looks like they are doing some renovations. I thought my room was great. Great location. Might go to the top of the list for places to stay when I go to Milwaukee.
3.1
For the price you are paying, this hotel is acceptable. Room and bathroom were clean, there was no smell. It was very quiet at night, but I could see it having the potential to be noisy. Under 2 miles to downtown which is convenient. It's a 10 minute walk to the Ambassador Hotel which is much nicer, but costs at least twice as much.
3.1
Nice neighborhood
3.1
Pros: Staff was friendly, very welcoming, comfy bed, placed smelled of incense (i liked it), had working fridge and microwave, very clean
Cons: layout would have been very confusing to find our room if not explained to us when we checked in, some water damage on shelf under tv, a lamp not even plugged in and no electric socket to plug into, bathroom light outside of bathroom (was fun when roomie turned off the lights on me while i was in bathroom), no dead bolt for door (just regular lock ontop of card lock)
3.1
The Inn was good. Very clean and well kept. Staff was nice. Beds were comfy. Showers were very awesome.
3.1
So I have never been to Milwaukee before. I was looking online for hotels and I made sure not to choose the cheapest hotel I could find but I also wasn't wanting the most expensive hotel either. I found one that was a median price. When we got there, it didn't say anything about it being in a rougher part of the city. You had to get buzzed into the front desk, there were some sketchy guys out in the parking lot eye balling us as we walked back to our vehicle and one of them started cat calling me. Then we walk up to our room and the room next to us had what looked to be a homeless person in there with the door open doing some shady things. I felt very unsafe and uncomfortable. When we got into the room it smelled horribly of cigarettes and just dark and depressing. I laid on the bed and it was the most uncomfortable mattress I've ever laid on. I just looked at my bf with dread in my face and said "I don't want to stay here". So we were there maybe less than 5 mins. We walked back to the front desk and checked out. I called hotel.com to get a refund since I had already paid for 2 nights. I was hoping to at least get the second night refunded. They couldn't refund us any of the money. When I finally got to talk to customer service, they said they would send me a $75 credit on the expedia app which I never recieved. I typically don't bother with reviews. But this experience was so bad I felt I needed to.
3.1
You get what you pay for. The area is not good but if you lock your doors, drive or uber, and dont want around st night youll be fine. The staff were amazing and did a really great job going above and beyond. The location is a quick drive or uber away from everywhere youll want to be. Id absolutely stay here again.
My only complaint was our room faced the well lit street, and the curtains were jot black out so it felt like day time all the time, and the matress protector is plastic making for a very hot sleep.
3.1
Only two shower towels, someone can be hurts w the bathroom floor is very slippery sometimes xtra towels help to walk on it, water pressure is very poor,
3.1
Check in went terrible
3.1
So sadly, I was charged two times for a one night stay. Expedia said I’d be paying $149.50 for my stay. The village inn charged me $144 and then another $194?? Gave me a $50 deposit back, but I’m still owed $140. Why was I charged twice? They did not explain this to me. I called and emailed and haven’t received a reply. I’m going to call my bank and dispute the second charge. Also, the floors were dirty, the bathroom was dirty, and I felt very unsafe because anyone can just walk into the hallways. my Uber driver said it was weird to see a young girl standing outside of this place. Made me scared. Thought this would just be a nice regular hotel.
3.1
The property is recently remodeled & clean but that is really the only good thing I can say. Bad area, terrible cigarette smell in the rooms, uncomfortable pillows, loud bangs on the walls throughout the night. We were honestly a little scared to stay in this hotel.
3.1
Well, I can tell you... I was shocked. I got room #103 with a king bed. It was great! The room has been recently remodeled. The bed is super soft and comfortable. My room came equipped with an electric fireplace, flat panel TV on the wall, microwave, and small fridge. The ambiance of the room was spot on... Hardwood floors, modern updated fixtures. It has to be one of the nicest and freshest looking bathrooms, I've visited in a long time of staying in different places. Great job. My stay there was very private and quiet. Parking & surveillance was up and running. Great & helpful staff. McDonald's, The Rave / Eagle Club a few blocks down. Recommend a safe liquor store about 0.4 miles away. Reasonable price to stay, well worth it. Not recommend to walk around, or to places... For your safety. Anyways, everything was perfect and spot on. I would have no hesitations staying there again .
3.1
First off, read many reviews before booking our stay but rooms looked nice & needed close to Brewers stadium for night. Cheap room for 1 night.
Yes, you pay for parking in lot. States in the hotel notes but there's side street parking. Neighborhood is questionable but a cheaper option. When coming back to hotel back parking lot, cone was blocked to enter lot. Front desk watched as we physically moved cone to move vehicle in back lot.
Check in was slow, appeared like a family with with 2 people handling each person's check in. Didn't explain parking, where anything was located. Found strange that both prior check- in & myself had to remind for either identification or credit cards back.
Room looked decorated no-tell motel. No dresser or anyplace to place overnight bags. Just small side table. Ceiling fan light bulb had no cover. No notes or welcome on how to use floor a/c unit, where to find food, ice or even local menu's. Upon talking to front desk, found they sell canned sodas for $1.50.
Floor a/c unit had no instructions on how to use. Shortly after arrival, starting leaking water on floor. Used hotel towels to mop up water. Front desk did come quickly once informed but placed room trash can & more towels around as solution. 5am wake up to it turning itself off & very sweaty warm room.
Towels in room look like personal collection or ones I could've bought at store or from home. Bedding was soft & smelled clean but pillows were small. No coffee in room or lobby!!!
