Pros (+) The staff was super friendly and accommodating, the breakfast was fantastic and the hotel smelt so good!
Cons (-) The location seemed strange to me and parking was a little rough, but that cannot really be changed.
Pros (+) Amazing breakfast
Pros (+) They denied service to me because I lived 29.5 miles from the hotel. Miserable experience.
Pros (+) The staff in the evening and the morning were very service oriented.
Cons (-) I didn't like that I couldn't stay longer.
Pros (+) The room was nice, clean, had green options if staying more than 1 night
Cons (-) Pancakes were rubbery, heat/ AC were running constantly and ac was very noisy making it hard to hear the tv- we eventually turned that off to cool the room off- was set way to warm for us. Parking is horrible at this location.
Pros (+) Hated entire stay
Cons (-) Not sufficient parking for rooms, bum's walking around hotel and my car I had to park on street all night, dirty room and terribly stained carpet, in obvious crime area, lying employees about neighborhood and awareness of bum's on street drug house two doors down, misleading photograph on kayak, poor customer service when calling hosts come since you outsource to service bureau-spent 2 hours on ph...

Pros (+) Definitely dirty hotel overrun with bedbugs, no hygiene and lack of interest by employees to report such situation. They should close the hotel for such a lousy service
Pros (+) The staff was very friendly and made us feel welcome and important. We would stay here again and since my daughter lives in Wauwatosa we probably will.
Cons (-) The fan noise from the heating/cooling unit was a bit too loud for me. The room was not luxurious but a good value and was neat and clean.
Pros (+) The beds were so comfortable that I didn't want to get out of bed. The continental breakfast was the best hotel breakfast that I have ever had.
Cons (-) The pool was out with no prior notice
