As soon as you walked in the hotel it smelled not good.Person at the front desk talking on phone with a personal call and very unprofessional. Bathrooms were small and not updated. The amount we paid for the hotel breakfast should have been included and not have to pay extra for breakfast. Will not stay here again.

The staff at the hotel was superb. The room was comfortable, although they might want to check about getting a new bed. One day my room did not get cleaned, but towels were brought up to me. The breakfast is a mess!!!! I didn't go down this morning because I just couldn't face the tables not being cleaned off or cleaned. The floor being dirty. Hot water wasn't hot and tasted like coffee. Just a horrible experience.

We enjoyed staying at this hotel over a weekend for a Brewers game. It was close to the stadium about a 10-minute ride. There's a nice outdoor beer garden within walking distance. The only thing I was disappointed with was I was hoping to use the hot tub and it was quite murky so we passed.
