When we arrived, the property had not been cleaned! Beds, bathrooms, garbage, floors were all undone! Had to leave the property for 2 1/2 hours so that someone could come in and clean. Very inconvenient considering all family members were arriving and had planned to cook dinner for everyone that evening. Property has many things broken and poor condition. Basement area had not been cleaned even after second attempt. Carpet in basement is very dirty.
Pros: *The location was great. It was easy to get downtown and easy to walk to places nearby. There were plenty of interesting restaurants and stores within walking distance. *The house had plenty of room for our group of 11.*We appreciated the bedrooms were all in the back of the house as to avoid the noises from the street.Cons: *There was a STRONG smell of smoke and marijuana when we entered the house. It was clear the previous guests were smoking in the basement. Maintenance sprayed the basement which helped a little but even after that, the smell lingered and so we weren't able to spend much time in the basement.*There were too many things to mention that were either damaged, not functioning, stained or dirty. This included the furniture, the walls, doors, the closets, hardware and the flooring. *The kitchen was "modestly stocked". We were glad we brough supplemental items. *The driveway is VERY Steep. Any small cars would likely bottom out getting into the garage and it didn't seem safe to park in the driveway. We were also glad we brought our own shovel and salt - otherwise we would not have been able to get out after the snow fall. Overall our stay was underwhelming. We could definitely see this house being great for bachelor/bachelorette parties or weekend trips for young people wanting to go out to the bars/events downtown. But for our family with young children and grandparents we were hoping for something different.
Overall, this property was great. Many large comfortable beds. We enjoyed the large TV and sitting area in the basement to watch a movie each night. Nice location within walking distance of restaurants, bars, and breweries, but the noise from the main street was very loud late at night. The garbage disposal did not work and the owner had no tips on how to get it working. The dishwasher also had standing water in it, so hopefully that was OK when we ran it before we left there is a huge double shower, which is kind of odd with this sort of property. Itâs impossible for one person to use both shower-heads simultaneously and this is not the type of property where a romantic couple is typically going to stay and use such a shower. The stairs to the basement were pretty dirty and could use a thorough vacuuming. Overall, though, we enjoyed our stay and I would stay again.
Overall great experience. House was very spacious and beautiful. Everything in house was very clean and had everything we needed. The location of the house is also perfect. It is located in a safe area within walking distance to many bars and restaurants. Almost all attractions in Milwaukee are close by. I highly recommend this place and would stay here again
This property is fabulous. First of all, it is HUGE. So much space and plenty of beds and bedrooms for a large group. Secondly, my group and I loved the location just off of Brady Street. We were also within walking distance of McKinley Beach which was fantastic. The hosts communicated quickly and were attentive to our needs. A great option for a Milwaukee getaway!
Property was very large and well suited to fit our 8 person party. Check in was easy, unit was well cleaned and in a good location for night life. One area of improvement would be to include more basic household items: hand towels in bathrooms, oil for cooking, basic seasonings, etc.Overall, the stay was great and I would recommend it to others.
Our stay was what we hoped for! We were able to check in easily and the VRBO was in a great location for local nightlife and a community bar feel. Brady St is definitely a fun go-to!
Space was great but not cleaned in some areas. Dirty floors, urine around toilet, counter dirty and trash can not emptied. We suggest new cleaners. We had to take an uber to purchase cleaning supplies.
The house was not only better than advertised, but it was perfectly located in a fun neighborhood. We could walk anywhere in minutes. The manager was friendly and quick to respond. My friends and I had a great weekend here. I highly recommend staying here and I would do so again myself should I visit Milwaukee again.
