I paid a premium for a 3 night stay in a room with a balcony to be able to keep curtains open and enjoy the view. I ended up being placed in the basement of the hotel with a "patio" that had a public walkway right outside so opening the curtains was out of the question. When using the patio the view is through a chain link fence. In addition the room itself was directly under the lounge so we were treated to constant banging and footsteps. Room was also directly across from their laundry service so we got a nose full of strong detergent that would cause me to go into a sneezing fit and a hallway full of cleaning staff! No stopper in the sink and adjoining room had thin doors that allowed us to hear clearly every word spoken next door. Way overpriced for what I was given!!!

1-hope you like really small toilets 2-soap/shampoo dispenser didn’t really work 3-balcony light made it impossible to see any of the river scenery at night due to glare 4-at checkin at 2:40 we were told the room wasn’t ready and they’d text us by 4:00. They never did. 5-had to park across street (100 yds) 6-numerous questions at checkin took way to long 7-was told room was on 2nd floor-waited by evevator anticipating going up one floor and when got on, floors were labeled 1,LL,3,4,5. 8-no coffee in lobby!

Perfect hotel location in Wisconsin dells. Close to downtown action but not too close. River walk is beautiful right beside hotel. Hotel restaurant was also very good. And for two retired people the 2 hour upper dells boat tour was wonderful.

A bit cold.
Great stay, short walk from the strip. Our room's heat didn't work and there were a couple freeze warnings during our stay. That was a bit of a bummer. Staff was amazing and the restaurant was great.

The views from our river view room were gorgeous. The hotel has been updated but definitely still needs some TLC in other areas. Our room did not have a deadbolt and the door didnt close properly unless it was pushed or pulled shut. Bathroom was tiny but beds and pillows were very comfortable! Hot tub temperature was good. Parking on the river side of the street is very limited. Lot across the street is poorly lit and traffic flies by as you try to safely cross the street.

The hotel room was adequate but not what I would expect from a "boutique" hotel. It was clean and comfortable, just not impressive. The restaurant food was very good, and the staff were polite and friendly. I did some laundry and the dryer was not working. They offered me some quarters to take my clothes to another property and dry them, but I did not want to run around town with wet clothes so I had to drape them over my luggage and put them next to the room heater. The receptionist said the dryer has been an ongoing issue. Management needs to bite the bullet and replace equipment that doesn't work. Other than the wet clothes we had no real problems, it just seemed like the room could use a refresh.
