I liked it that it was like an AirB&B. No check in just use the combo and go to the room. Only there for one night but it was great. Mexican Food place across the street was awesome.

So convenient!

Great stay here as a couple. Communication was timely and helpful. The restaurant downstairs was a fantastic plus as well as the brewery across the street. Parking is easy and onsite. I would recommend!

OMG, I have stayed at a lot of places (>100) and this far surpassed any (well there was this one on the east side of milwaukee that I stayed at for a year, but that's another story) and this was better!!!. I'm afraid to say too much good stuff because I will need to stay there again and I want to find a room ;) Art is messy with attention to detail, the screws on the outlet cover plates were all alighned vertical ;)

No proprietors on property. We had to call someone off property to get hangers ( there was only one), more body wash and tissue. We waited hours and I had to call again. The guy seemed annoyed by my request.
