There needs to be an adult only hour for the pool. I went at 8pm and 8am and the same family with SHRIEKING children was there both times. They were full volume screaming and cannon balling. I choose this hotel because of the pool but it was completely unusable due to no staff monitoring of rules or adult swim hour. The room was clean but the air conditioning was leaking so I stepped into a wet puddle in my socks first thing in the morning.
Chewed/spit up food left near pool area… doesn’t look like regular cleanings or checkin of the pool area by staff is done. Pool rules are not enforced and kids out of control in pool area.

My stay here was absolutely horrible! I was booked for the weekend only stayed one night and went to another hotel! The room has a horrible smell, TV did not work, the air conditioner was leaking water so the carpet was soaking and wet which is what was causing the room too. The linen had a smell. The rooms are old and outdated. Staff wasn’t able to change my room until the next morning and that room was horrible as well so I left and found a better hotel!

Don't believe the reviews! We got here and it looks ok but you come in to one staff member helping a huge line of people checking in andmultiple people walking around from the pool dripping water everywhere. Get to our room to find the bathtub looking like it hasn't been cleaned and damage on the walls. Several people noisy after 10 pm; slamming doors, taking loud/ yelling. Then we got woken up at 6:30am to someone knocking on a door down the hall repeating MANAGEMENT! LIKE, WTAF I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!!!! HATE IT HERE.

I was told breakfast was from 6:00-9:00 AM. She neglected to say that I would need to pay. It seemed as though it was a complimentary breakfast, but indeed it was not. It was a cost. The breakfast was not good. Please work on making food at least tast good if your going to charge a fee.

Great location and staff, but updates needed!

It was a good location, off I-43 and on the river with close access to parks and Bayshore Mall (upscale stores and restaurants). The staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a lovely patio in the back. The downside was a lumpy bed, too much light coming in the windows at night which could not be blocked by the curtains, and cheap paper products (1-ply tissues and toilet paper). Bathroom space was tight (door almost meets the stool) and the shower water pressure was weak. The restaurant/bar is no longer open aside from breakfast service, which was very sparse. I believe there might be renovations planned, but until some upgrades occur, not sure I would stay there again if planning to spend much time on site.

The restaurant and bar at the hotel was not open. The breakfast was limited options and what they did have was expensive. We were not disgusted about the hotel. It was clean and served its purpose for what we needed. There are limited food options nearby so if your wanting food options that are easily accessible I would not recommend. Also, its at least a 10-15 minute drive to downtown Milwaukee. Overall an average hotel.

This location is a short walk away from Sprecher Brewery and Solly's Grille. Both of these are local, historical, family friendly, dining experiences that you can only get in Milwaukee. Being so close to both of these and right off the highway made this Holiday Inn location the optimal spot to stay for a casual trip.
