Magnolia Hotel Omaha

Convenient and affordable

Pros: Fairly priced. Clean rooms for the most part. Unique styling like a boutique hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful though did not bother asking how our stay was when we checked out. The on-site free shuttle was very convenient, drivers very friendly. Had a happy hour and late night cookies and milk which we missed but is a nice touch.

Cons: Rooms are very noisy - AC was rattling all night. I could hear everything going on in our neighbor's hotel room (moving hangars, flushing toilet). Windows were obviously cheap - did not keep sound from the street out whatsoever.

Cons: Overall the room seemed a little "tired" and could have used some fresh paint and such. Beds were much too mushy for my liking. The barn door on the bathroom provided little privacy, and was extremely difficult to close. Bar staff was unable to make basic cocktails, including items on their own menu.

No doors on the bathroom!

Pros: Free beer and cookies!

Cons: A sliding door to the bathroom that doesn't block any sounds. Housekeeping knocked on all the doors of my floor at 8 am in the morning every morning.

Cons: The front desk staff was not very friendly. Both of the the girls acted as though they were inconvenienced having you check is in, even though we were the only people checking in at the time.
