It was a great few days to get away and forget about your troubles for a few days.

Almost everything, the rooms, the staff, happy hour and the roof top bar.

The restaurant was very pricey and the food was was a bit snobby.

Wonderful staff very willing to accommodate. Someone at the front desk who’s name started with a D w

I requested a bathtub and upper floor and somehow this info was not passed on to the hotel.

I think we were put in a room that had dogs in it and we were both allergic. Also would have liked a tub.

Great hotel for Summerfest

location was excellent for walking to Summerfest and a short Uber to a Brewers’ game. 3rd ward is a trendy, clean area with lots of good restaurants.

They missed the checkin time of 3pm and we had to wait an hour for our room. A little noisy one of the nights - couldn’t tell if it was from another room or ambient noise from the street.

Good stay

The room was nice especially with the spa tub that allowed my wife to unwind and relax.

We got intoxicated, woke up late for an appointment and didn’t grab my eye glasses. Once I noticed I didn’t have them it was well pass my checkout and for some odd reason the cleaning staff “says” they didn’t find any glasses in the room which I high doubt due to us not ever leaving the room.

Excellent service, amazing food, expensive room.

The food was incredible, drinks were great. My girlfriend and i were playing cards at the bar and we dropped a card thru the crack in the deck. I asked the front desk if there was anything they could do and they LITERALLY LIFTED THE DECK to get my playing card. A+ customer service!!

The room was a bit expensive overall.

Valet stole a handgun out of my car. General Manager Gabriel refused to return my calls nor give a care. Speaking with attorney and police on the matter.

Never Again

The pillows were very comfortable. The pillows were soft.

The view was of the roof on 3rd floor of a 9 floor hotel. The price- cud of stayed at a super 8 for 80% less and that would be comparable. Suppose to be king bed and it was a king essential room, whatever that is. No water in room, no coffee pot or coffee. We wanted to order a pizza and was told they were out of dough. 4 drinks cost 68 dollars at the bar. So extremely let down on our stay we waited so long to take from Iowa. Will never stay again or suggest it to anyone else.

it was nice, but overpriced for the amenities.

nice location and property

Roof top bar bought in large amount of non-hotel guest in the evening, making the elevator trips like being in a drunk club setting.

Great location and nice facility. Be weary of when you stay, noise can be an issue if you want rest.

Location great, facilities were nice. My husband took advantage of the bike services. Shampoo/conditioner/body wash products were nice. Appreciated the robe.

Noise level was terrible. I was awakened by other guests at 3am-4:30am with constant door slamming and loud partying in rooms. Hotel should do something to decrease sound when other guests are rude and let doors slam shut.

Loved the location, rooftop bar was very fun.

For the cost of the room, we thought there could be a few more amenities. Some bottled water would have been nice, mini bar, snacks available. We did go down to the lobby to get something but that is not convenient. There is nothing near the hotel to buy anything like that. The food was very good at the restaurant but you really needed to make a reservation in advance which was hard if you're just trying to grab lunch.

Just ok. Not worth the money we paid.

Proximity to downtown

The staff was not very attentive. We requested the room be tidied on the second day, and it doesn’t seem like they did anything. They brought new towels, but left them unfolded and strewn around the bathroom. A friend left a gift for us at the front desk and asked that it be brought to our room, but the receptionist never gave it to us, even when we checked out. We thought this would be a special place to stay on our wedding night but it wasn’t.

This is the place to stay when you need a getaway even if it’s still in your hometown.

My boyfriend and I stayed in the King Suite and loved the spa tub! We stayed up all night and enjoyed the moonlight beaming through the bay window. Got to wake up to an amazing view and the location is exceptional for a day out in downtown. An amazing experience. Def. booking again.
