Noelle Wiebusch

Very pleased with our experience at the Pfizer The entire building had a vintage appeal with modern upgrades Dominic helped us at the front desk and was very kind

We even received a text from him later in the evening, asking if he could do anything to make our experience better He answered all of our questions regarding the pool and spa!We are at the Cafe in the morning and had the “Hungry Man” breakfast Delicious!The only thing I can think of that was slightly negative about our experience was that the bathtub wasn’t cleaned when we arrived, and when we ordered room service, the food was coldAlso (and not at any fault of the hotel), DON’T park in the parking lot across the street They’ll charge you a huge fee if you’re there over 24 hours You’re better off going with the hotel’s valet servicesDefinitely will be going again!

We just spent a short weekend away at the Pfister and could not have had a better time! It is a beautiful space, but what really took our experience over the top was the staffAlyson at the lobby bar was one of the best bartenders I’ve ever met – kind, organized, outgoing, friendly, and so thoughtful She took the time to talk with us about the hotel’s history and amazing artist in residence program, and the drinks were all fantastic! Despite a very full bar and the fact that she was churning out drinks for everyone she still took the time to chat with us – impressive multitasking! The second night we were there she was serving and noticed that we hadn’t yet found a seat – she remembered what we had ordered the night before and brought us our drinks before we even ordered, which we appreciated so much

We felt like we were at our neighborhood bar at home!Marco at the concierge desk was so lovely – he took our photos and even helped us pose 🙂 It was a great addition to our stayAlexa at the bar at Mason Street Grill was absolutely fantastic – she had a full bar and was so on top of each guest’s needs Her attitude was so positive and friendly! The food there was also incredible – the salmon dish is to die for and the filet was perfectly cookedI would absolutely recommend staying here to anyone – the comfortable rooms and beautiful ambiance are fantastic, and make sure you have at least a drink or two and a meal inside the hotel – the staff will blow your mind!

Love! Love! Love! Do you want to feel like a Hollywood star, important individual or simple feel like when you walked in it matters that you chose to stay here Then, this hotel is a right place for you The atmosphere is friendly and kind as well as a little mysterious with all the decor and unique artwork

The front desk staff was beyond accommodating, professional and kind The bartender was super nice and even gave me a free soda since I wasn’t looking to get a drink i went up to front desk to exchange a $20 to tip him, and they did it without any problems I only wish I would take down their names The rooms are beautiful, place is gorgeous and wow wow wow their Christmas tree (I was there December 18-20) was spectacular Looking forward to staying here again soon! Thank you Pfister staff, you are one of a kind, amazing, caring and incredible people

I have stayed here twice with my husband- on the night of our wedding two years ago, and for a small getaway this year for our anniversary I am excited to make it an annual tradition The rooms are just lovely

And don’t get me started on the breakfast! Delivered right to the door and simply gourmet Such a cozy building and your stay will feel like a little getaway

Mike Stewart

This is the second time I’ve stayed here The check-in was seamless and the rooms were beautiful I had a single room and a two bedroom two bathroom suite

The suite was great plenty of storage and closet space and privacy between the two bedrooms The single room was very nice as well I love the showers with the sideways heads give you a very invigorating shower! The breakfast was delicious and was brought to our room since the restaurant is closed The outdoor courtyard is beautiful I will definitely be staying here again

Dauria Wheeler

The hosts were SO nice to help us arrange the rooms as we needed two together The rooms were pleasant and attractive (if darkly painted), beds were VERY comfortable, and bathrooms were absolutely luxurious! Delicious breakfast had plenty of variety and something for everyone in our group to enjoy Highlight of each day was relaxing in the courtyard by the fountain! Warnimont Park and Lake Michigan just across the street was an added bonus

I’ll start off my review by commending Addy & Damian (Sorry if my spelling is incorrect)Damian: Upon arriving from nearby work training, Damian was our first welcome He was very kind to our entire team, and got us all settled quickly with rooms near one another

He double checked to make sure we were okay with it too Great Service!Addy: I called today worried about a bathroom bag with over $150 worth of different things Toothbrush, Beard Trimmer, Hair Product, Etc She was super polite, patient, and was very quick in her search of left behind items I’ll have my items shipped to me this week Truly awesome!Breakfast Staff: You’re awesome Very kind and attentiveUnknown: To whomever returned/located my bag Thank you!Outside of just my staff reviewLocation – Amazing, tons of shops, grocery and food within walking distance Not a bad drive from downtown MilwaukeeRoom – Near perfect, super clean and had everything you might need My coworkers & I had suites on the 200 Level Only issue was that the showers were oddly built We were all concerned about the half-glass and about splashing a bunch of water out of the showerIf you need to stay near Milwaukee, I highly recommend based off Staff, Locations, & Overall Cleanliness + Functionality of the Rooms

Kara Chapman

I stayed for about a month, so I got to know the hotel staff very well I would give it a 45, but didn’t want to bring the rating down

Pros: Drexel Town Square is central to Milwaukee and a lot of other local destinations Really good restaurants and shopping (including groceries) nearby The hotel is very clean Upkeep is really nice Housekeeping does a great jobCons: walls are paper thin If you’re a light sleeper, request a room on Floor 4 Customer service at the front desk was mediocre, nothing outstanding for sure Always the manners and pleasantries, but never went above and beyond in customer service, by remembering your name, if you don’t acknowledge them, most associates at front desk won’t acknowledge you I say some, because there were a couple of ladies who worked that were great! The guys that worked there, customer service just wasn’t their passion, and you could tell

I highly recommend The Courtyard by Marriott at the Milwaukee Airport It is a true haven for flying out of and into the Milwaukee Airport The Park and Fly package allows me to stay the first or the last day of my trip and to park for 14 days at a terrific rate

I’ve had such great experiences with the shuttle The drivers are all very helpful and pick up and delivery is quick My most recent return from a trip was the day after an ice storm One side of my car was encased in ice Dustin graciously chipped the ice off my car windows so I could safely drive home This kind act is but one of many I’ve experienced at this hotel The front desk staff are terrific, friendly, and supportive This hotel is my go to place when I travel out of Milwaukee and back

Chad Nigh

The first room had a dirty shower with visible grime, everything was dusty in places that could easily be wiped down, food crumbs all over the floor and couch The pull out desk had someone’s toe prints all over itMove to room two, dirty slimy soap dish with a clean soap just thrown on it, black mold all in the shower, and again food crumbs on the floor and couch

There were too many marks left on furniture to make me believe they wiped down surfaces For the amount I feel I was overcharged to stay there (two different prices given) I do not recommend, why pay such good money to stay in a half “straightened up” roomEdit to add response Yes your staff did move quickly to put us in a second room but unfortunately that room was just as dirty, still had mold, and as we were checking out we noticed toe nail clippings along the bed The only reason we kept the second room was because we were already going to be running behind for the event that brought us into town and because my wife used her own cleaning supplies and cleaned up enough of the area for us to stay in a somewhat clean environment So it was actually my wife that made our stay more comfortable with her supplies and her time We do accept your apology and we’re happy to hear it will me addressed so the next couples stay might be more relaxing The outside of the building looks absolutely beautiful and very well-maintained, it would be great if you could put that same energy inside each room so each guest doesn’t have to clean while they’re there

J Basinski

Very convenient hotel near the MKE airportWe were in town for some baseball games and everything was really within 15 minutes of usThe airport is very close, only a 3-minute drive

Breakfast is still the COVID era grab and go for the most part, but they do make breakfast sandwiches and Starbucks coffee drinks if that is your thingThe hotel is fairly quiet aside from the typical late night/early morning traveler noise typical with an airport hotelThe pool is fairly small, but was certainly enough for my sons (12 and 9) to let out some energyWhile we didn’t use the shuttle, we did come and go a lot (by use of a rental car) While we didn’t utilize it, I don’t remember walking in our out of the hotel and NOT seeing the shuttle availableWouldn’t hesitate to stay again when in town

Stayed here a few nights with my family Rooms were clean and large enough I loved having the curtain that could be pulled out to separate the bed from the sofa area

The staff was phenomenal The weekday breakfast lady (hope you don’t mind me making up a title for you!) Was very friendly and went out of her way to make sure there was plenty to eat The weekend breakfast lady was great also The driver of the airport shuttle was very professional and friendly The staff at the front desk were great I have not stayed in other Home 2 properties, but will definitely look for them next time we’re traveling I hope this is a corporate culture It was so refreshing

Mercedes Bradshaw

We loved our stay! The lobby area is very nice They had a hot chocolate bar, water with lemon, bananas and apples at no extra cost You don’t see that often

The woman at the front desk was so nice, I’m a little sad I didn’t get her name She was very friendly, welcoming, and even my girls talked about how nice she was Kindness really does go a long way Our room was nice and clean, we had everything we needed The pool was nice, not too cold, and clean The hot tub is closed We will definitely stay again

Shy Digging Eyeball

Nice big clean and updated room, convenient to airport, restaurants, grocery stores (many options!), highways and local attractions Staff were very nice especially the super-friendly breakfast lady, and the free hot breakfast is better than average Minus one star because the bed was made up with two cheap sheets and a decorative spread – no comforter or blanket at all

I got the extra blanket from the cupboard but it too was very thin It was in the high 30s at night outside so I would have appreciated an actual blanket or comforter and when you’re flying in you don’t have a handy blanket of your own in your car Also be aware that the advertised “kitchenette” only has a microwave, so don’t plan on cooking anything that requires a range/ oven Unfortunately I discovered this only after I had bought groceries that weren’t all microwave-friendly

This place and the staff was great! I loved my room It was comfortable and clean The fact that they were so nice to our group made it even more pleasant to be there

I was able to check in early without asking, as soon as I arrived to make sure I was at the right place Ms Tina checked me in and it was around noon Thank you Hyatt staff for such a peaceful weekend

Jenny&Jeff Sherman

It’s very close to the airport, which means the shuttle gets you there or back in 5 minutes On the flip side, it’s not downtown or near anything interesting, but you can Uber anywhere Rooms, lobby, and hallways are very clean

Staff is friendly There’s a small bar where you can talk with fellow travelers If you’re a vegetarian or vegan, or if you need or want healthful food, there are apples and oranges near the breakfast area Hotel was quiet during the week Got crazy for a few hours on Friday night, but I think that was because of the local sports team’s victory No complaints As a solo traveler, I appreciate places like this that are clean, convenient, safe, and well maintained Would stay again and recommend to others

Linda Vann-Owens

After reading the latest post I was not wanting to stay here even though I have in the past but I had reservations and didn’t want to cancel My room was great, clean and I’m picky! I was on the street side and it wasn’t loud and I’m a light sleeper I didn’t smell pot in the rooms or hallway

I was on the first floor Breakfast was good, on time, clean and stocked well The front desk was very helpful, super friendly and made sure we were taken care of The pool area was clean and stocked with towels only complaint was it was hot in that room It was a super busy weekend with the holiday, summerfest, ball teams and NASCAR in the hotel, the staff did very well with a full hotel Thank you to the staff for all you did to make my stay great!

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

Very clean and well running Terrific sleep! The bed, the sheets and pillows were amazing! Great shower pressure and temperature All the staff were helpful and kind

I really liked the coffee stand with artisan water on every floor as it was well stocked and clean 24/7 The art in the hotel is gorgeous and the bar area is arranged perfectly with lots of windows

Regan Sur

Such an interesting hotel to stay in! Art work caught your eye with color and texture The location was great so one could walk to downtown, the lakefront, and to the vast array of restaurants in the area Staff was so wonderful

They were always friendly and helpful The room was very clean with neat decor that went along with the theme of the hotel Every room had a ukulele and colored pencils! Even the fitness room was very clean with updated machines and cardio equipment with the added bonus of sweat towels (which came in very handy!) Happy with my stay there and view from my room was very nice too!

Sarah Streicher

Stayed one night, overall it was okay The hotel itself is beautiful, in a great location and the staff was friendly I’m not sure if I would stay again though for the price

Our room was decorated nice, but there was dust everywhere It seems like no one stayed in our room for awhile and it was neglected while cleaning As you can see in my pictures, there was a thick coat of dust all over Pretty disappointed as I didn’t feel like the room was cleaned properly There also wasn’t a microwave in the room which would have been nice It was fine for a night, but not sure I’d return

This is our very favorite hotel in the Milwaukee area! It’s right off the highway so it’s easy to jump on and go anywhere from here Yet it’s got the suburban charm that we are accustomed to Every employee is always so friendly and welcoming

Rooms are clean, updated, and neatly decorated and provide fridge and microwave Love the pool and hot tub here which was open until 11:00 Breakfast was served until 9:30 and was well-stocked They offered a great variety: omelets, sausage, warm cinnamon rolls, pancakes, cereal options, and of course coffee with flavored creamer I don’t need any more than that! Highly recommend and we will definitely be back here next time!

We arrived on Sunday night , and were greeted by Ann Marie who could not of be nicer When we got to our lovely room there was a email our flight had been cancelled We cancelled our shuttle for the morning

We finally booked a new flight for 5 pm the next day Ann Marie to the rescue again saying don’t worry have a late check out , then you can use the business office and if you would like to go out to eat lunch we will take The next day Victoria was just as accommodating Great breakfast great Service thank you

Bill Johnson

I had a great experience Check in process was great and I was recognized as a Diamond member No mention of a room upgrade

Bottled water was givenRoom was nice and clean Very modern Plenty of plugs and USB ports Room had a regular coffee maker Bathroom had regular size bath towels Shower water pressure was fair No charge for parking Shuttle service to the airport was available Overall experience was excellent

John Cortese

I was not a fan of my time here The rooms were clean, and the staff was friendly enough despite the waitress going missing for 15 minutes, leaving me waiting to close out the check The part I didn’t like was the breakfast was way overpriced, especially for the basic breakfast, which should be complimentary

Also, there was only coffee in the morning and no other water or coffee during the day I expected more out of a Hilton location as most have a fantastic complimentary hot breakfast and an evening social hour

Clean hotel with modern decor The ladies at the front desk were all very friendly and helpful The lobby was full of activity at times with lots of people checking in but my room was very quiet and I was not disturbed by any surrounding guests through my two day stay

My room was also comfortable with nice amenities The shower is always the most important item to me and this one was very nice with a clean and updated shower head If I ever fly back to Milwaukee, I will stay here again

Jeremy Cucco

I’m torn on this I’m only giving it 4 stars instead of 5 for a few reasons First, I think a hotel that gets 5 stars needs to be absolutely perfect

This one is good, far better than expected, but not quite up to 5 star That’s not meant to be insulting at allThe staff were fantastic (except one person who I encountered that seemed like I was bothering her) Otherwise, the rest of the staff made up for it and we’re excellent The room was comfortable and clean The ac was a touch loud but what hotel ac isn’t loud? At least it worked since it was over 100 degrees while we were thereGetting into and out of the hotel was a challenge due to construction but that’s not their fault And once you figure it out, it’s easy enough Location was okay – plenty of mall food around if that’s your thing but easily drivable to other locations for good and groceries as neededThe highlight of this location was truly its staff They were very kind and helpful Add points for the clean and comfortable rooms and responsive housekeeping and it’s a place I’ll definitely return to if I need a stay in the area again

Matt “Getoffmyshit” Schultz

Excellent service! From check-in to Check-out We had 14 people in our party 8 kids and 6 adults

They took the time to make sure we were all on the same floor during check-in When it took longer than anticipated they brought out drinks for us and everyone waitingWe ate at their restaurant Again superb hospitality Got our food 10 mins after ordering 14 people? It was awesome And the food was delicious I recommend the butter burgerAll in all, our stay was a perfect end to a delightful visit to the ZooThank you very much!

I stayed on February 5th The comfortable bed was the only good part and the staff was nice to me personally However, right at check-in, there were some other customers that were upset because they were told the pool would be open and it wasn’t

I didn’t care because I wasn’t going to use it but the way the manager on duty handled it was pretty rough to watch She told them it wasn’t her that gave that information and just said “So do you just want to cancel your reservation?” No apology, no attempt to help them find a different hotel in the area She could probably tell that I was taken back so she was nice to me but I am surprised that she is a manager The next morning, the breakfast set-up was hands down the most nasty breakfast I’ve ever seen in a hotel Pancake maker was broken (other customers said it’s been broken for a few days), fridge was empty, juice dispenser was empty, food spilled every where, and all there was left was cold eggs and cold, greasy sausages I took one bite, spit it out and went to a diner down the street Yuck The manager that morning was nice and apologized but makes me wonder why that area was so neglected Will not be back

The hotel itself was very nice Would have been one of the best ones we have ever stayed at IF they would have cleaned after the previous clientsThe beds were phenomenal! Not your typical stiff and uncomfortable hotel bed

When we checked into the hotel, we noticed an odor that was musty in nature We thought it was the cleaning solution We got ready for our concert and left for the night When we returned around 2am, the smell was noticeably worse Unfortunately due to time, we just turned on the air, opened the windows, and the bathroom fan to make it bearable In the morning, we noticed there were wet spots and obvious signs of dog feces around the room We took pictures and showed the front desk manager immediately She stated she would talk to her manager and get back to us regarding our stay It has been over 3 months and we still haven’t heard from the hotel and was charge full price on our room Will not be staying there!!!

this was the best hotel stay we’ve had in a long time from walking inside, walking through the halls, and entering the room the entire hotel smelled and looked clean our room was super modern and bright with a big window

you get a light filtering shade and a room darkening shade that you can put up or down the TV is a big high quality flat screen on the wall and the bed was extremely comfy soft sheets and didn’t smell like bleach or really anything at all the huge walk in shower was amazing as well and even the complimentary soap left us smelling good and very soft i would love to stay here again when it comes to the location, you’re about 15 mins from Milwaukee we went to a show at The Rave and it was a convenient drive you kind of feel secluded from the city but still very close to attractions

Although my stays are comped, I do feel the rooms could be cleaner, vacuuming everywhere and shampooing the carpets more often would be welcome Sometimes the room was spotless but the tables were not wiped off The biggest issues for me is that it would be nice if they could monitor guest smoking marijuana in the rooms and hallways

If there was a microwave in each room, that would be amazing Overall I enjoy my stay and the staff is always so friendly and accommodating

Sara Bella

The hotel was very nice Our room was large, cleaned, and well kept The bed was soft with 4 nice pillows

The bathroom was cleaned and fully stocked The casino had many fun games, we enjoyed our time on multiple machines Very disappointed when the restaurant closed 2 hours earlier and the bars on the casino floor where under staffed

Alice Cartwright

My friend and I stopped by yesterday and got some lunch to go but it was a good experience but I don’t gamble but there was a lots of people playing the colts that seemed to be enjoying themselves and having a good timeThe food was delicious and I enjoyed it tooThe place is clean and the workers are kind and friendly and I like thatSo if you like to gamble it ‘s the place to check ✔️ out or if you just want to get something to eat the food is good

So if you’re looking for something to do check ✔️ them out

We honestly love this hotel Always a great stay when we are in Milwaukee but last few times the cleanliness has been slipping This time found hair in the tub and did not have a pan in the kitchen to cook

wasn’t a huge deal but not what we are use to from this place Still has complimentary breakfast and “appetizers at dinner Food was decent clean tables and sanitizer for your hands great people great hotel check in at 3 checkout at noon which is nice definitely recommend Oh yeah and it’s also in a great location right around the corner from the highway, Grocery store and tons of restaurants

Finally! An IHG property that had a pool and hot tub that was working and even better from 9:00 to 11:00 it’s adults only in the pool area something that more hotels should adapt Staybridge Suites are one of my favorite extended stay hotels this one meets all the expectations I was impressed with the breakfast as well that was not just your basic scrambled eggs and toast

Working Summerfest this property was conveniently located as well and a property I would definitely return to

tony staffeld

Rooms are pretty big but not very well cleaned I was staying for work and over the course of a month and a half I had 4 different rooms (because of work not the hotel I would leave for weekends and come back) all my rooms were different degrees of dirty

Some had stuff like tooth paste on the wall or dirty dishes My last room was my worse A day or two into staying in the room it looked like there was hair in the bed and not my hair Another person I was there with had issues with their room too Looked under my bed for something I dropped and idk if it’s ever been cleaned beforeDirty rooms aside all the staff I interacted with were great Everyone is friendly and will help anyway they canThere is a large paper wasp nest on the backside of the building that should probably be removed

The employees at the hotel were all friendly and helpful from my first to last day That usually sets the tone for what I should expect from a business The area is in the reformed warehouse district

It is close enough by car to visit the Third Ward where most of the crowd was If you’re walking, plan a 15 minute trek The double queen room was spacious and the beds were comfy The decor fits the theme of the hotel The bathroom has an overhead rain shower I wish the detachable shower head had an adjustable feature instead of having to remove it for use There’s a restaurant with upscale food, casual bar and an outdoor eating space Room service was not offered when I visited I was disappointed this wasn’t mentioned on the website My theory is staffing shortages like most in the hospitality industry, but still a courtesy to inform guests would’ve been nice It was cool to see all the motorcycles out front from other guests Surprisingly it was limited noise and relatively quiet Lastly, the common areas of the hotel were cleaned and maintained

My husband and I got married on April 16, 2022 at The Ivy House in Walker’s Point We needed a hotel for the weekend, for ourselves and guests The Iron Horse was nearby our venue and exactly what we were looking for to fit the overall theme of our wedding

Our experience with them started out a bit rocky, but turned out to be amazing! We struggled with our back and forth communications with the first person in charge of our room block Halfway through, we were assigned someone else (Amanda) who was extremely helpful and easy to work withWe had quite a large block at the Iron Horse, and Amanda made us feel confident in our stay The Iron Horse definitely lives up to the hype! The beauty of this hotel is obvious the second you step inside the lobby The rooms are gorgeous, especially our suite with the incredible view! We enjoyed hanging out at the bar, and plenty of our guests ate breakfast at the restaurant in the lobby A lot of our guests were hesitant about staying here because of the price, but ultimately said it was worth it Everyone enjoyed their stay and had such positive remarks about the building, and staff Thank you for a lovely weekend, Iron Horse!

Amazing experience We’ve stayed at allot of hotels and this has been one of the coolest The location, downtown by the river, the decor was just super cool

Its motorcycle garage type themed The rooms were set up so well with a rain shower, minibar, fridge, microwave Service was on point also Valet service was nice, a bit humorous because the cars are parked 20 feet from the drop op point but room service for breakfast is great food, 5 star although it was crazy expensive 20 bucks a person atleastoh oh, I forgot the outdoor seating and lounge area We hung out there at night after the restaurant was closed Great spot to chill and talk Have a drink maybe ;)Overall we had a great time at the hotel, we will love going back

The staff was WONDERFUL – everyone with whom we came in contact I’ve never experienced such a wonderful staff in a hotel before The breakfasts were super good and there was coffee available all day

I was disappointed in my room The floor had numerous stains and the carpet was coming up The room was humid the entire time no matter what I did with the thermostatI was disappointed there was no cleaning of the rooms in the 4 nights I stayed, 5 nights for my parents I’ve never been I a hotel where this happens (except Africa)Our toilet had an issue one night, but there was no one on staff except the lady at the front desk, so I had to fix it or we had no toilet Fortunately it was an easy fix A 3-star hotel needs to have a remedy other than the customer! Again, we weren’t in Africa!Finally, our family was there on bereavement and booked 4 rooms We ended up with 3 different rates for bereavement rate I’m still trying to figure that one outI would probably go back if I needed to stay in the area, but there are these couple things that need help

First the good stuff: the staff here were great, so helpful and attentive When we got to our room the TV remote batteries were dead, we called and they brought us a new one right up While the worker was there I asked her where we could find some plastic forks and she said they were at the front desk

Minutes later she was knocking at the door with a few sets of plastic ware for us which was really nice and not expected The room was very clean, the breakfast was great, the pool and hot tub are a pretty decent sizeNow the not so great stuff: the bed was not very comfortable, it was like sleeping on a really old mattress that has lost its squish and is all springs Like other reviews have said the chlorine in the pool area was so strong my eyes were burning even the next morning Also the pool was freezing cold, we entered the pool first and planned to finish up in the hot tub but after shrieking in the cold pool for a minute we decided to just go straight to the hot tub And finally, the elevator ride from hell I ride elevators a lot (I work in a hospital) so I’m not afraid of elevators I can tell you this elevator was the most terrifying one I’ve ever been on As the car passes each floor it shakes from side to side and jostles you around, and when we reached our floor before the doors opened it dropped a couple inches It’s also a very small elevator so the thought of getting stuck in that thing is terrifying We took the stairs the rest of our stay which was certainly better for our health but not what you’re looking for when you’re paying to stay at a hotel If you’re afraid of elevators plan to stay on the first floor or take the stairs Overall it was a fine stay but I wouldn’t choose to stay here again

Hank Zane

Stayed here for a night for a wedding Enjoyed the room, coffee and breakfast, and the pool and hot tub area We were here on a Saturday and there was a fire and get together in the courtyard, pretty chill vibe

There is a fitness area with treadmills and stationary bikes but didn’t get to try it out Overall a fun stay for a single night

Booked 3 night at the Knickerbocker Overall, a pleasant place to stay Our experience with the staff was OK

The bed in our suite was not good (very important to me) and overall the suite was clean We had construction jackhammering outside our room the 2 days we stayed there A few areas in our room needed cosmetic work (peeling paint, etc) We ended up being very sick the first and second night and needed to leave the third night There was no accommodating this and they stuck to their no refund or discount policy Overall, if they’re going to be a beautiful hotel getaway with a restaurant and a spa they did not meet my expectations for hospitality, friendliness and environment

Comfortable, clean, convenient airport hotel My colleagues and I spent a short time at this location Our business and flight schedule requiring accommodations near the airport

Due to our brief visit, my observation and experience with the hotel’s amenities is limited This is not a new property The hotel has been remodeled, rehabbed and rebranded to a Crown Plaza The hotel facilities appeared to be from several decades ago and most likely was built under a different brand ( my guess would be a Holiday Inn??) However, the hotel is clean and well maintained The lobby and common guest areas have been remodeled and refurbished, giving a very pleasant welcoming experience My guestroom was average size hotel room It was clean, comfortable and quiet My room included two double beds, large flat screen TV and mini-fridge In my opinion, the bathroom needs attention and serious upgrades Although I believe it was completely clean, the age of the bathroom fixtures and features gave me not the most pleasant experience In addition, I would have appreciated much hotter water for my shower and shave The hotel has a restaurant, but I didn’t have a chance to dine The hotel has a very nice gift shop adjacent the lobby and front desk I didn’t make a purchase, but I did visit and look around It was well stocked and had a nice selection of food, beverage and toiletries The check in and departure process was very pleasant and efficient Both the evening and morning front desk staff was wonderful Very friendly, polite and professional The hotel provides a complimentary airport service Departing the hotel early morning went perfect; shuttle on-time and very pleasant, safe ride with an excellent driver The only issue my colleagues and I experienced with the shuttle was on arrival at Milwaukee Upon our flight arrival we called the hotel for pickup Unfortunately, it took approximately 35 – 40 minutes for the shuttle to arrive Ordinarily, this is just a small inconvenience issue However, waiting outside in winter temperatures hovering around 10 degrees and ice/snow on the ground, it was quite uncomfortable (especially for me, being a Florida resident!) Once the shuttle arrived the driver never offered any explanation for the delay The drive is only about 10 minutes, but seemed an eternity as the evening driver was driving very fast in winter conditions and playing very loud music In conclusion, this hotel is perfect for short-term stays, especially if you need accommodations near General Mitchell International Airport

Jim McIlvaine

Traveling in a post-pandemic era, my expectations for this property were low American “delayed” my flight until the next day and provided a complimentary room The shuttle bus driver was professional, friendly & prompt

The room was clean, spacious & well-equipped with decent wifiWhen you have an airport-centric property, the operation of the shuttle bus to the airport is an integral part of the stay and I’ve had some bad experiences elsewhere The morning shuttle driver was just as professional, friendly & prompt I would stay here again without hesitation

Sheri Barnes

The front desk was nice, and beds were comfortable but housekeeping need to be trained better They came in our room 3 times, unannounced! I have not clue what they were doing My husband had to call the front desk to tell them to make sure it didn’t happen again

The rooms were outdated and we had to switch rooms because the TV in the living area kept going in an out The TV was definitely outdated The ice machine and elevator was out for almost 2 days, and we had to have housekeeping vaccum our room because there were particles on the floor The floors need shampooing My family and I stayed for 4days, and would most likely not stay again
