Fair Place. Good Service

This is a nicely located hotel for the downtown area, Being right next to the third ward, you are less than a half mile from tons of restaurants bars and other places. We stayed during Summerfest and it was less than a mile from that too. Parking there is 28 bucks a day, so try and find something cheaper. Milwaukee has about 200 parking lots downtown and they all charge differently. The TRU side of the building is strictly average hotel rooms, but will run you about 50-100 a night less than the Home2Suites on the other side (which provides kitchenettes with the room. You do need to request room service, but the big points here are for the staff. They were all friendly and helpful and that goes a long way towards making a stay decent. The "free breakfast" is about what you would expect for "free" so maybe go 500 feet to one of three other places for a better option if you are willing to pay a bit. No bar onsite, but again plenty of great options within 1000 feet. We would certainly stay here again.

It’s like you decorated the rooms for $100 at Walmart or IKEA. Everything in the hotel was cheap plastic. The egg bites were like hockey pucks. I can’t believe this is related to Hilton.
