The only thing that was inconvenient was the parking especially on game days or days with events in the area. There is only a limited amount of parking in the garage for hotel guests. On game day the garage was full and i was unable to park. I had to drive a couple blocks down in a different garage and walk back to the hotel. Thankfully the weather was nice. You can valet but on event days they charge $75. Other than that i have no complaints. The hotel is unique for lincoln NE. I would definitely stay here again.

The Kindler Hotel….downtown Lincoln, Nebraska

Desk staff so accomodating….Kelly & young lady were so helpful with parking instructions, dinner reservations, greeting other guests in our party, etc. Made our family gathering for a pending memorial service so pleasant and welcoming. This property is especially tasteful and beautiful. A wonderful boutique hotel that we would like to visit again soon.

Poorly designed bathrooms

For how nice the hotel is overall, the bathrooms are seriously lacking in usability. The shower head sprays directly at the glass and can’t be adjusted, there are no towel racks on the wall or mounted anywhere below 8’, and there are no surfaces to contain your belongings. At such a nice hotel you should get the bare essentials and then some.
