The hotel itself is decent The aesthetics are cool however when you walk in it instantly reeks of high school boy locker room It’s as if someone was nervously trying to cover up body odor with the smell of cheap perfume

Pillows had coffee stains from previous stays And there were stains on the duvet Now as far as the front desk I can honestly say they’re just about useless I called down to the front desk to have paper and pen sent and received nothing And then when I extend my stay I am locked out of my room at six in the morning to only be told by Timothy the front desk boy that he can’t find my reservation and that he will not help me if I continue to be rude and that he is new I was however more than direct to what I needed to be done All in all this hotel fell extremely short for the price that was paid Oh and don’t even waste your time at the hotels restaurant You’re better off going to McDonald’s

Jesse Courchaine

Beautiful modern hotel with a comfortable bed and quiet room Decently priced for the area Overnight parking is charged $10 even though it’s in the same free lot as Cheesecake Factory

Cleaning service woke us up at 9AM, there wasn’t a do-not-disturb sign we could put on the door and wanted to sleep in There is a mini-fridge but no microwave There is soda, water and snacks for sale at the front desk but they are not refrigerated Overall, we would stay here again, just a few minor issues!

Vincent Gaines

The Renaissance hotel is beautifully finished The lobby is nice Rooms are modern and tastefully furnished

The prove is high for this area, but less than many other big city hotels This is a Marriot member hotel so all the usual Marriott peeks are here I had a fine suite on the 5th floor Quiet, king bed room with living and dining space My room faces the east so I saw a lovely sunrise several days

My room was cleaned ONCE during my whole 16 night stay, even though I asked for cleaning service 4 times Even when they cleaned my room, it was only partly cleaned

Front desk didn’t seem interested helping me with my problem Every time I asked for cleaning, they said they would do in the next day, but never did The only time my room was cleaned was when I personally asked the housekeeping staff to do it Would not recommend this hotel for long stays Some of the staff in the front desk was very blunt and not niceBesides that, food & service in the restaurant is really good

Alicia Reed

Hotel fitness room and pool area were nice ( didn’t get a chance to use them) The hotel and room was very outdated Our first day was busy so we didn’t have a chance to do anything in the hotel except for sleep

However, around 2 am I woke up itchy with bites on my arm Turn on the light to see multiple bedbugs crawling in the bed Safe to say second night was canceled and I was forced to find a room somewhere else since I was traveling with children They’re traumatized

Brad Nagel

I seldom write reviews but felt it was important to get this one out there regarding my stay last nightRooms are very outdated and my dinner in the restaurant was awful The bed was stiff as a board

The chicken breast on my sandwich was about as thick as a paper towel and the bun was not fresh When you think of a Hilton this is not up to Hilton standardsThe front desk gentleman was wonderful and so was my waitress in the restaurant

This is simply one of the best Hilton properties I have stayed at The staff here simply goes above and beyond Huge recognition needs to be known by corporate about how kind phenomenal human beings Heather, Jose, and the afternoon front desk worker who was working on Thursday 1/6

She was just equally about as genuine and a awesome human being Each guest room is impeccably clean and I can’t speak higher of the gym and hot tub facilities which are superior to most This is just an all around amazing experience in Milwaukee Thanks Heather, Jose, and staff!

Susan Hazlett

We were a large group of family and friends in town for my daughter’s wedding The hotel is a historical property that has been beautifully restored, taking advantage of some lovely architectural details The rooms are interesting, clean and well maintained

The location is great The front desk, housekeeping and breakfast staff are knowledgeable and friendly Worth every penny! Thank you!

Mike St John

Friendly and helpful staff Rooms were clean and bright Always enjoy having a full sized fridge and kitchenette space

The location is perfect for walking the river or getting to Lake Michigan Does not have a pool, yet it has a neat splash pad for the kids and a hot tub for the adults Will be staying here next visit to Milwaukee next year

This is a good hotel for a long stay, whether you’re waiting to get into a house or there for work The well-stocked kitchenette with a full refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, and ice maker was awesome to have As a long term stay location, house keeping isn’t the same as other hotels but it doesn’t take much to empty trash and request new towels periodically

Breakfast and standard toiletries are not free but again, this is a place to stay for longer stretches versus a single nightThe important stuff:- Full kitchen with two stove burner and fridge/freezer- 20+ various kitchen appliances available to borrow from the front desk- FREE laundry machines- Covered patio with propane grill- Good water pressure/temperature control- Body wash, shampoo, and conditioner in showers- Friendly staff!Probably more, but this is not a fancy hotel but clean and extremely convenient and practical 10/10 would stay here again

Ian Xiong

This place is ok and very affordable but the wifi is kot so good Pretty strict almost got kicked out because my baby was crying late at night and someone reported it Rude neighbour’s

The room 307 AC didn’t work so it was hot we complained a few times and they didn’t do anything about it But other hotel rooms AC worked I wouldn’t suggest this hotel unless it’s a last resort Also the walls were really thin

Friendly staff delivering great service from everyone The hotel is beautiful and so clean Nice bed which delivered one of the best nights sleep

I especially loved the bathroom and shower Just beautiful We were given two tickets for two drinks each for happy hours Didn’t realized we would be served a full course dinner doing this time Food was excellent! Breakfast was a full course with pancakes and potatoes All of this is included in your stay We stayed for two nights and enjoyed been in the thick of all of the happenings Great hotel and great location Go Milwaukee, I’m truly in love with your city!

Laura Hoff

I stayed here while looking for apartments in Milwaukee and had an excellent experience Every staff member I encountered was friendly and seemed to genuinely care about their guests having a good time The free breakfasts and manager’s special every day helped make my trip stress-free

The general manager and his assistant manager both deserve raises for the excellent service The general manager, Chris, actively helped me find apartments and even went out of his way to offer me a discounted room to stay in while I wait for my apartment to get ready for move-in Plus, the downtown location made walking around the city easy and convenient

Amanda Zima

This was a great place to stay on our trip to Milwaukee! The hotel staff were beyond friendly, breakfast and kickback dinner were good and plentiful The 3 complimentary cocktails were an added bonus! Hotel and room were very clean and the bed was very comfortable The only suggestion I would have is the check in was confusing at first

The parking garage says there is access to the hotel by the skywalk but if you are first arriving, you need to actually go out and onto the first floor first Wish there was a sign or they listed that on the website Overall, this is a great hotel and I would definitely stay again

Great location Clean room FRIENDLY staff

The room was small but we were only there to sleep, so that wasn’t a big deal We book through Priceline and it showed that there was a pool No pool, but there were so many other things to do in the area that we didn’t miss it The kids loved the old US Mail drops Parking was very close and economical Would stay there again!

Hannah Avdic

The hotel has a great location downtown Close to the riverside and pabst theater The staff wasn’t very kind

Other breakfast was pretty empty when we went downstairs I went to inform the front desk and had to wait until they finished a conversation They then brought out cold coffee, not even fresh There were 6 people behind the front desk, as the trash cans were overflowing The beds were the ones with metal springs, so uncomfortable my back hurt for 3 days The rooms were clean though I wouldn’t stay here again

Trina Richardson

Joyce (Front Desk Manager) and Gwen (Room Cleaning Manager) were both very nice and accommodating When we first arrived we were assigned a room the size of a young child’s bedroom When we went back down to ask if we could be switched to another room, Joyce did not hesitate and the next room she gave us was nice and spacious

The only 3 things we didn’t like was that all 4 of the pillows were soft instead of a mix of soft and firm and the breakfast was not good at all (fake sausage and fake cheese omelettes, boiled eggs, cold cereal, yogurt and bagels) There are other breakfast places within walking distance Third, parking is $20 per day in the parking garage across the street So keep that in mind Maybe it would help if they could validate our parking voucherWe didn’t go down to complain about those things because everyone had been so accommodating in all of the other areasOverall, Joyce and Gwen were awesome!! I hope management will give them great raises and promotions! Gwen gave suggestions on where to eat dinner and things to do ❤️Hope my review was helpful!!TRS

I was there for a business trip for a week As far as style it’s a very trendy and contemporary place The location isn’t bad either

I have two major complaints First, I reserved a handicap room with a seat in the shower After my morning shower, the floor was flooded everyday Enough not to be able to mop up with a towel Occasionally it would seep under the bathroom wall and into the main room by the door I went down to the front desk and spoke to whom I presume to be the manager He told me that there isn’t adequate pitch so it won’t drain properly I’m not hard to please since none of my property got wet but it does mean there will be long-term damage to their property as it leaks into their walls and carpet, which it did This will inevitably lead to a nasty mold problem and water damage is really expensive Actually, by the time I left, I think it smelled bad since the carpet by the door was routinely wet Since they don’t seem intent on fixing it, I think the public has the right to know before they reserve a room Management was very polite about it and even bought me breakfast one morning but that doesn’t change the fact that there’s a structural problem they haven’t addressed Second, this is the first hotel I’ve ever been to where there wasn’t a restaurant or continental breakfast It’s designed like a Starbucks “Grab and Go” but it’s not my cup of tea Would I stay again? It wasn’t a nightmare but if I had a choice, absolutely not Next time I’m just going to tell my employer to pick some place else

Sidney Condos

Well I’m not even 4 hours into it and they failed to mention that they are valet only, which is an additional charge of $20 daily or $30 over night (gotta love hidden fees!) Also I came with a three year old and based my hotel choice off of the travel wisconsins website seeing as this was “top 6 family friendly hotels in Milwaukee” but doesn’t care to explain that you have to reserve time frames to actually use their pool which of course lead my 3 year old to threw a massive tantrum in the lobby because it took me going all the way downstairs about to go to the pool for them to tell me I’m just hoping she stays awake to make it to this pool time seeing as that’s the whole reason I picked this place for the night & will not have the time too during the rest of my time here

Welcome to Milwaukee I guess? Really really frustrated by the lack of communication Overall clean hotel, amazing super kind staff, great location, only downfall is the lack of communication when it came to their parking & pool policy Whiles the hour reserved pool time was really really nice, I’d want to know that you’d have to reserve a time ahead of time

Javier A. Fernández

I decided to take Memorial Day weekend for my family and me to explore Milwaukee While the arrival was very easy with digital check-in and the available staff, this was the easiest part of the tripDay 1 – we had no garbage can in the room

There was a dark red stain near the bed I assumed it was part of the design (it wasn’t) Later that evening as we pulled the sheets back, we realized that the red stain was seeping through from the mattress to the sheets and it looked like someone either spilled or ejected something onto the mattress and floor I mentioned it to the front desk and though they offered a different room if available-i decided to settle for the sheet change and clean up (I SHOULD HAVE MOVED)Day 2-After a great day exploring District 3 and the riverwalk-we settled in for the evening and ordered food from one of the nearby restaurants As we were in the room I noticed something n the sink basin ANTS There were several and as soon as I saw that I pulled our sheets back to discover a few on the mattress I called the front desk and was told that there was no one to address the situation but they would note it on the log????!!! Luckily I was able to dispose of the few visible ones but sleep was out of the questionCheckout-No note from the previous night When I informed the guest service person about the situation she stated “it makes sense, you are on a lower floor, so ants” WHAT??No manager contacted me There was no reaction The location is great My recommendationSTAY ELSEWHERE

This hotel is a modest 6 story with no good views The rooms are nice inside and appear to have been refreshed recently I like the layout with 2 queen beds and a good sized desk

The shower and toilet are have a door with the sink outside so 2 can get ready at one time This is a mid level hotel so not as luxurious as many Marriott hotels are The front desk person was efficient and got me checked in within moments He seemed experienced and knows the layout of the hotel enough to answer questions about the rooms No suites were available this week

Morgan Stewart

The hotel itself was really nice and clean The staff was great and very professional We arrived early, but they were able to get us checked into a room quickly

The original room they put us in had an issue, but they promptly switched us to another room with no hassle at all I would love to have left a five star review, but unfortunately our night time/sleep experience was pretty terrible We woke up around midnight to really loud music, shouting, doors constantly opening and closing (not quietly), etc It was like we got a room within a block of rooms reserved for a party Ended up calling the front desk as it was definitely the room right next door and wasn’t seeming to wind down, they said they’d take care of it Laid awake hearing this and not able to sleep until at least 1:30-2 and the staff never seemed to address it That made for a far less than desirable experience and has me up in the air if I’d return

Marie Nilson

This was a typical experience at a Marriott Courtyard so if you’ve stayed there before this location is on par for what to expect However, I have to say the staff here are wonderful! Kind and extremely accommodating from small requests like a vase for flowers to a big request like when our room reeked of mold Location was perfect for us being ~10 minutes walking distance from the conference center

Great market hall next door with lots of food options

I truly enjoy staying at this hotel Traveling with small children, the room sizes help make the stay more comfortable The location is great being right off the freeway, and it is super easy to get anywhere in the area

The best part by far is the people The front desk staff, maintenance, cleaning, and breakfast crew are all super friendly We had an issue one morning with the hot breakfast items all containing pork, and the staff member went into the back to grab me a non-meat option for the kids I’ve stayed here a few times when visiting Milwaukee, and this stay solidified its place as my top choice!

Mary Johnson

If you are expecting a heated pool, skip this hotel! Staff all have a different story as to why the pool isn’t heated enough to swim in To prevent algae? The outside temperature effects the pool temperature? Just admit that you are told by corporate not to heat the pool Other reviews from quite a while ago, mention how nice the pool is

New owner?On a positive note, the breakfast was nice and the lovely woman who serves it during the week is a treasure!

Nathan Schultz

This is bar none the best hotel experience I’ve had in yearsFirst, I booked with a travel package including tickets which I called to inquire about getting prior to check in Not only did they ensure they were ready for me, they also had our room ready at the time of pickup (before noon) which was incredibly convenient

When I called regarding the tickets I received an immediate call back when arrangements were made the day prior, as well as a phone call the day of to confirm (We all know how many times soemthing like this is communicated only to show up and wait an hour while they scratch their heads the day of)Second, the hotel was immaculate, modern and had great water pressure and temperature control in the room The pool and workout facilities were excellent, the outdoor workout area and patio were incredible tooThird and most importantly, everyone on the staff was incredibly accommodating, very friendly and greeted us all with a smileWe will stay gain and look forward too it!

Front desk and breakfast staff were helpful and friendly Very spacious rooms but need updating Full kitchen but extremely limited cookware- we had to request a frying pan

Only complaint is housekeeping- we stayed for about a month between homes and requested housekeeping weekly They never changed the sheets, didn’t vacuum, didnt wipe down surfaces and left some trash cans full The only way I could tell they were even there was because we got fresh towels and shampoo

magdalena rosario

It room was clean and bed was comfortable We would have rated better but no hot water had to take shower in another room after calling several times to guest services We were locked put of our room due to batteries died so our card did not work

There was no compensation for all the inconveniences I have stayed at many Residents in and never had as many issues

Charlice M Drexler

I scheduled a room and was put in room 702 I liked the layout of the room with tall ceiling and large window As soon as I got inside I went straight to the bathroom, the toilet looked like it did not clean for weeks

Full of stains of people’s business in their The carpet has stains on it The tub was rusty, the kitchen counter and microwave were dirty I had to talk to front desk person and she sent someone to clean the room I was supposed to stay there for 7 nights I was so unhappy I did not want to be charged for last minute cancellation so I only stayed for 2 nights To tell you the truth, I will never stay in this hotel nor will I let anyone I know stay in this place

Maddie Meier

The amenities were good but I can’t recommend anyone stay here especially if you’re going to park on premises Multiple cars were broken into, eventually including our own, night after night during my stay Looks like this has been happening for months if not longer, and yet there are still not enough security measures being taken to deter whoever keeps doing this

Zero cameras in the north lot, which is full of broken glass Also, even though the staff were aware that multiple car windows were smashed and a thunderstorm was expected, no one thought to contact us or to put anything over our window, so we found it in the morning and now we’ve got water damage too The waffles at breakfast were pretty good though

Meg Bray

We agree, stay AWAY! We went to the Brewers game& came back to a parking lot of full of vehicles with their windows broken out (at least 5) that we saw driving through to turn around & park somewhere else I’m pregnant & was a bit worried about what was going on We went to the front desk to report it & the front desk said they were aware

We went up to our floor & found rooms of people that were packing up & leaving They were there since Thursday & this was the second time they experienced the break ins They also told us that some of their vehicles were stolen earlier too! Nope, all of our group (8 people) packed up & checked out Being in my 3rd trimester we were not going to risk having our brand new truck stolen or broken into!!! The front desk was unhelpful & cold when we asked about a refund for rooms we never even got to use We simply got a business card for the manager maybe with all this going on the manager should be there at night to help the staff very disappointed on how the situations were treated Especially for those that experienced it more than once! I didn’t even hear a simple “sorry” to anyone involved

Andrew B

I have been staying here on a regular basis for over a year, and while the hotel is nice, the neighborhood is not I have had not one, but two vehicles broken into and windows shattered this week, and this morning there was about 15 trucks broken into And despite being told by Milwaukee police they need to address their lack of security cameras in their parking lot, they refuse to do anything about it

Nice hotel, but I wouldn’t trust leaving your car here This apparently happens all the time

Our room was very clean It looked very nice, and was located very nicely The employees where quite personable and helpful

And they took care of our bags for free when we where at the farmers market in Milwaukee We needed help with the temperature in our room and they sent someone promptly This is a great place to stay when coming to Milwaukee especially for a bucks game, you can walk to the stadium from this hotel Overall this is a great place to stay

Kristin Temby

I had my wedding block here as well as a meet and greet the night before the wedding Colleen was easy to work with and helped me plan out appetizers and drinks for my guests She went above and beyond and even made personalized tickets for my guests as drink cards

She made sure to check in on me during the evening and make sure everything was running smoothlyWe were able to get a block of rooms, however they changed the block price earlier than agreed upon due to high demand for our weekendAt least two rooms (mine included) on the tenth floor were leaking rain from the ceiling The staff brought in towels but they stated they could not get a roofing company to fix it until this summer so they couldn’t do anything about it I believe something was done financially to make this rightOverall, good hotel for the price and I would recommend for events at the restaurant and bar

Jason Meddaugh

A great location in the heart of downtown Milwaukee, just a few blocks from Amtrak You’re paying for the location and service, it’s not the type of place where you would expect a low rate Restaurant had reasonable prices considering the location

A big thanks to Trent who helped solve an issue with dry cleaning and ensured I had my suit in time for a wedding The rooms are sufficient, though not huge, and the closet/bathroom layout was a bit cumbersome, but overall it was a great stay and location

Fabulous hotel First time staying here, retro styled, newly remodeled, very comfortable room Stayed in a premier king room

Location is very quiet and safe A bit of a walk to restaurants and bars, but worth it since the hotel is just plain cool Was pleased that it had such a nice mother with everything you would need, including a gas stove and large refrigerator We’ll definitely stay here again

Christina Aro

Very cute hotel with comfy studio apartment-type rooms The kitchen includes all of the supplies you would need to cook a meal There is a grocery store across the street as well, so it would be easy to pick up the food supplies needed

Parking is provided for an extra fee The hotel still uses old fashioned keys rather than swipe cards, in case that is an issue for anyone (we did not find it problematic) There is also a great cafe in the hotel that had very tasty food and coffee Note that some units are actual apartments with full-time residents–again, this was not an issue for us, just something we did not know prior to checking inHotel is also in a safe and convenient location It is maybe a 10-15 minute walk to the lakefront and the art museum, and we walked to Summerfest in about 20-30 minutes

Angela Galitski

Retro hotel in an ideal location You can walk to the river Walk in under 10min There is no a/c but you are able to open windows onto a courtyard with a nice breeze and has a ceiling fan

Very quiet location with a comfy bed to recover from a long drive from California Service is great and good is amazing! Be sure to order ahead and take back to your room that is equipped with a kitchen!

I liked the place A lot of what other negative reviewers state is true: super small bathrooms, old furniture and patch jobs here and there But who cares

The beds were super comfy, shower was nice and hot, TV was nice It’s a good hotel despite its age The rooms are reasonably priced and ALL the staff were incredibly nice and helpful If you want a gigantic bathroom and the newest furniture possible then stay at a $400 a night hotel The only reason I docked it 2 stars is they have what would normally be a complimentary breakfast bar at hotelsit was $18 freaking…COME ON HYATT!!!

Debbie Matheny

The hotel is decent Our room was a king size room with a ‘city view’ The view was of construction

No big deal! The location to our venue was within walking distance The real issue was the fact that the hotel charged my credit card $41869 and states they only charged me $34891 (with a reimbursement of $50 for incidentals) leaving my total bill at $29891 after the reimbursement My Visa bill still shows a charge of $41869 Customer service was absolutely no help at all just wanting to speak with my bank I definitely do NOT recommend this hotel 🥲

Jennifer Bird

I booked this hotel as the ratings were better then another hotel in the area I myself work in a hotel so I was disappointed in the hyatt and its cleanliness The parking garage elevator and stairs were disgusting, the hotel elevators were also disgusting

I couldn’t believe that there was no mattress protector or bottom sheet on the bed as well The room was a good size and clean but the carpet looks like it needs to be cleaned Bathroom was small and the shower head and bathtub faucet sprayed every which way but down The front desk was great though Super nice even though they could see I was in a not so great mood I’m sorry but I’ve paid way less for nicer hotels that have things included so why I paid this much for a room and then having to pay $24 for overnight parking when there is no breakfast or pool was crazy to me I will not stay here again

We came to visit Marquette with our daughter and booked this hotel online We arrived a little earlier than expected and asked if we could check in early Anthony was at the front desk and said he would expedite the process and we could visit the public market while we were waiting

This was perfect When we came back our room was ready and Anthony was very helpful and friendly Everyone we encountered was very professional and friendly The room and hotel were clean, comfortable and had everything we needed I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone else who comes to Milwaukee! It’s in the middle of everything!

Mel Harris

I absolutely love this place!!!! I’m here for business and the staff have been amazing! Anthony and Ty have really gone above and beyond to make my experience and stay immaculate!!! The room is spacious, modern, and clean I enjoy a hotel that has free and hot breakfast The lady who does the breakfast is also super nice! This hotel is in the heart of downtown meaning that there’s plenty to do, see, and eat

I’m so glad I chose to stay here!

ALLISON CHASE

My room was located right by the elevators It made it easy for me to take my bicycle down to the lobby as it was my vehicle in Milwaukee It was much better then paying for parking, which can be expensive

The room was clean and well organized There is no front desk clerk at night, so you have to buy from their sundry if you get a late night thirst It’s very expensive!!!I would stay here again It’s a nice hotel

The hotel itself is dated and slightly worn, however, the room was very clean We came in contact with many staff members, and they were all so friendly I, specifically, want to recognize Sharon who was working the front desk area

Sharon was efficient, professional and congenial Marriott is extremely fortunate to have Sharon as an employee What a fabulous first impression!

Allen Osowski

We have been staying here through my daughters college years at UWM and this was our final stay due to graduation If my daughter did not graduate we would definitely look elsewhere for a hotel room We were early and arrived at noon, we were told by the shorter heavy set woman check in is at 3

She told us she would check how long before our room would be ready 10 minutes later she comes back, ignores the fact we are sitting there waiting and goes to back only to come out with a plate of food and sits in lobby eating while watching tv Then 3 other employees come to lobby to converse and buy snacks (yes, everyone needs a break i agree) but these were all cleaning people The cleaning manager asked them if they had work to do? Slowly dispersing I think they went back to work Also 1 lady worker stood at front counter the hole time we were there We checked in at 3 Cleaning manager said he cleaned room himself which took 1 hour 15 minutes after he said give him 20-25 minutes Oh did I mention, the desk clerk went back for food 2 more times for herself That evening there was a tall slender woman behind the desk What a joy compared to the cranky one in the morning I think she needs to look elsewhere for employment since she definitely shouldn’t be the face of Marriott

Elizabeth Reap

Most of the staff are extremely rude The rooms are not cleaned There’s dirty dishes in the kitchen and mold in the shower

I’ve had multiple things stolen from and no help from the staff besides a vague email weeks ago from the manager They won’t clean your room until you ask multiple times Even then, all they’ll do is take the trash out and give you new towels

Currently staying at the facility and there’s ants on the night stand and in the bed Requested to cancel the second night and was denied because we used a third party So I then ask if someone could atleast clean the room and was told maintenance has to physically see the ants

My best advise is to not stay at this hotel it’s infested I’ve just wasted money but I would rather waste them be ate up by bugs

EVERYONE at the front desk, housekeeping, breakfast, management, etc was kind and helpful They went out of their way to make guests feel comfortable, welcome, and appreciated

During a 30 year career of excessive business travel at nearly every type of hotel, I can say that the service at this hotel has met and even exceeded the service at 5-star hotelsLocation is great if you like shopping, parks, and trails Hotel is also pet-friendly

Meko “Eyecandy” Lynette

The room appears clean but I’m tall so I can see the top of the microwave and refrigerator hasn’t been wiped in 6 months

soooo much dust and food crumbs but I Lysol wipes every surface anyway but I had a great stay pool is open but small And no hot tub😳😳😳😡 shopping is here next door walking distance food next door Breakfast here will hold you over but no waffles no bacon no pancakes but they do have sausage eggs potatoes Cereal bagels muffins toast coffee juice Overall good experience

Millicent McKinstry

The room and location is great We requested cleaning service 2 days into our 4 day stay and NEVER received our room cleaned We requested housekeeping again the next day only to return to an uncleaned room

We checked out, but not before reporting this issue to management This location appears to have alot of temporary long-term residency, kids in the hallway late at night and families at the daily breakfast
