Waukesha parking is really the only issue here. Handicap spots are limited and Waukesha requires paid parking if overnight. Great little hotel and right downtown. The staff was excellent! Room was very clean and bedding and bathroom were in great shape.

Place was super clean and really cool…vintage!! Only negative is when you get there you have to call the front desk to be buzzed in. Also parking is a little difficult unless you stay on the weekends and you can just park on the street.

Our stay was wonderful. A little confusion on checking in. We thought there would be an attendant, but with the phone number provided at the front desk, we quickly were speaking with the person in charge. Our keys were in a lock box, with information and coupons for breakfast. The room was extremely spacious including the bathroom, with a glorious shower. Location was perfect for downtown activities. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay. Very close to everything we wanted to do downtown. Room was large and beds were comfy. Although breakfast is not included as stated. You just get a $10 voucher per person per stay to local restaurant. We know it was a voucher, but assumed you would get one per day not per stay.
