Stayed here for one night while attending a concert at Riverside Theatre. It is about a 10 minute walk. Hotel was OK, could have been cleaner. There was hair all over the bathroom. We parked next-door at the parking garage, it was cheaper than their valet.

Inconvenience

Place had a very nice continental breakfast I'll give them that. Parking and no direct walking to the hotel is an inconvenience. Having to carry your bags through a parking ramp and walk to hotel sucks.

Nice and clean

This motel is nice, clean and is very close to all the stuff that Milwaukee has to offer. Breakfast was good. Nothing fancy but definitely did the job. My only complaint is you must pay for parking in a garage. But the price of the motel stay was cheaper than most making up for the parking. All in all, it was a good 1 night stay and we slept great after a very long concert. Which was much needed.
