This motel appeared to be privately owned, and you could tell they really cared for the property. Clean and comfortable, but the friendly staff really stood out. This is my new hotel for future visits to the Milwaukee area

We had to do an overnight stay for a surgical procedure early the following morning and it was super convenient to stay overnight here. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Rooms have all what you need - clean, no frills, just a good quiet place to rest our heads.
