One of the BEST hotels we have stayed at! Literally kept comparing it to our favorite on the amalfi coast! The room was clean and so spacious, insane light and the common space was amazing for coffee and breakfast. Would be great for a family trip with the rooms and the common space. An added bonus was having an amazing restaurant below! Overall so easy to navigate, safe parking, so walkable and just a great stay. We will be back!

no parking

Could not get into room with code provided, had to get an emergency code, had to call back a second time as they did not send the new code as promised. Person states this happened before and they probably need to get it fixed. No parking spaces available, had to park blocks away with luggage. Kitchen barely stocked, only 3 coffee pods, 2 granola bars. Room was nice however. except for the toilet paper roll holder was broken.

Unique and eclectic but not worth $250/night

The hotel is very unique but definitely not worth $250/night: the bed was incredibly hard (my fiancé and I didn’t sleep well and woke up each morning with stiff backs) and the pillows were so soft they didn’t offer any support (we woke up with stiff necks). While the place was clean, the communal kitchen needed needed quite a bit of restocking—from coffee pods, tea bags and oatmeal to cereal spoons, tea cups and coffee cups (we had to wait until other guests finished their coffees so we could wash out their cups and make coffee for ourselves).

Loved this place! Only stayed one night but it was fantastic! The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable and I am picky when it comes to this due to having a bad back. Loved the contactless check-in and check-out also. The only thing that was not liked was the bathroom door. It is a sliding barn door and when the door was closed there was about a half inch to and inch gap. The entire bathroom was visible through the gap which could be seen through the reflection of the wall mirror located in the room. The hotel was extremely clean and in a safe area that was in walking distance to shopping, food and nightlife. Would definitely stay there again!!!

Parking was an issue. The alley was tore up and city was doing repairs, so we had to contact the milwalkee parking authotities to get an overnight parking permit for street parking. No staff on sight. Cipher lock to enter building and room. Code was needed. Room was fabulous. Great renovation of a very old beutiful building. Great spacious shower. Great restaurant on site. Enjoyed our stay

We never were able to find this booking so we thought it didn’t go through. The day of the booking we got our first contact from them and by that time we panicked and booked another room.

Very nice room. Upscale bathroom fixtures (Waterworks) but poorly installed (loose handles, toilet paper holder loose, etc). Get a competent plumber in there to tune it up. Comfortable bed and very quiet space. Nice lounge with pastries for breakfast. Would have been nice to have some juice with it. Good Italian restaurant downstairs. I was surprised that it was self check in but other than having to carry luggage up some stairs it wasn’t an issue. Surrounding area was safe but there were quite a number of empty storefronts. Overall quite satisfied for the price.

Could be great. Shared space/ammenities need work.

Upon arrival the shared kitchen space was very dirty. Crumbs all over countertops, dishes in sink, dirty dishes in dishwasher which was full. Thought was maybe it would get cleaned the next day and restocked with coffee. Entered room which was clean with the exception of crumbs on the small table and chairs in the room. The next day we awoke to the room becoming a little warmer. Went out to make coffee and get the advertised English breakfast that was supposed to be included. Nothing there. Text the contact number and they said they don't provide that and asked who i booked through. Told them and they said they would reach out to hotels.com because info was incorrect. Looking back at reviews it looked like it used to be offered. Someone else also recently stayed and said breakfast was missing as well. Went back in the room to find out was getting warmer. Temp set at 68 but temp was 72 and getting warmer. Text again. Said the app told them it was working. Waited and temp went to 75. Had to get ready for the day in a warm and stuffy room. They sent someone out after we left. Addressed the issue, which we were greatful for but no aplogy or anything for all of the issues. We stayed two nights and the kitchen was finally being addressed and coffee pods added morning we were leaving. No spoons in drawers. There are no instructions for anyone staying there and using a shared space.
