Excellent location, property is nice and well kept rooms are average, but the decorations are nice in each room is different.
The one thing I didn’t like is that there is no coffee available or ice machine.

They're doing remodeling so there are areas that have work being done. Room was clean, staff were friendly and helpful. Walls are paper thin so you can hear everything going on around you.

One Night
Good location near the baseball field. Easy parking and access to room. Price is okay. Nice place to stay for a one night visit.
Looks like they are doing some renovations. I thought my room was great. Great location. Might go to the top of the list for places to stay when I go to Milwaukee.

The decor was unique, and the room was clean. The price was very good and they have a continental breakfast included. My only complaint was cat fights outside the door all night. Otherwise, it was a good place with friendly staff.
My room was better than I expected in every regard. This is still a motel (bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper) but I’d stay here again and again!
I enjoyed the room. I found a great restaurant nearby. Made a cup of coffee in the morning. I was offered donuts and could fee, but I’m not a sweets guy.

For the price you are paying, this hotel is acceptable. Room and bathroom were clean, there was no smell. It was very quiet at night, but I could see it having the potential to be noisy. Under 2 miles to downtown which is convenient. It's a 10 minute walk to the Ambassador Hotel which is much nicer, but costs at least twice as much.
The room/property had a few odd features - hot water took a bit of time to warm up, AC was portable rather than a more normal window unit, breakfast food was provided in an out-of-the-way room, etc. - but it was clean, comfortable, everything worked, and I did not have to ask for anything. Especially given the location not far from downtown, it was well worth the price, and I would certainly stay again.
This is the cutest little quirky kitschy motel. The decor is over the top! It's an old building but the owners have done a great job keeping it up. And the staff couldn't be nicer! They helped us get a ride to get where we needed to go and to come back to the motel. They provide a continental breakfast with actually good food. Quiet and friendly. Beautiful temple across the street. Just a nice experience all together. :)
I really love all the attention to detail in making the property stylish and attractive. Though it’s not my style of interior decoration, I appreciate the love someone put into the property. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were friendly and informative, and the breakfast was the best continental breakfast I have ever had at a motel. Literally, Starbucks coffee, Dunkin Donuts sandwiches, an amazing selection of fresh fruit, beverages, and snacks. I’d say whatever expectation you have going into this type of small motel setting, they will surpass.
Clean rooms. To get hot water it took about 15 minutes. They advertised there’s a bar and lounge. Not true

There was drugs left from the previous visit, the room was clean besides that. I took photos with my little brothers phone and dns provided those later on I just don’t have them in my phone.
Had a great room. Was at a great distance from my venue. They just need to work on 2 things
1. Try to get Better WiFi. Could barely use my ps4 to stream when I wanted to use it.
2. Temperature on shower water. There was a sign that said to let the hot water run for 5-7 minutes. Even if you put it in the middle to be warm it wasn’t and if you accidentally turn the lever all the way to “Hot” it would become dangerously hot. That I had to turn the whole shower off and start again.
And lastly if you are someone who is not from Milwaukee, Wisconsin and looking for Liquor/Beer go to the quick mart that’s across the rave eagles club. 10min walk or 3min drive. They sell beer up until 9pm.

The staff were friendly, and helpful: as other reviewers have noted the air conditioner units are portable and in my room the exhaust simply would not remain in the outlet (despite the copious amounts of tape) but it was cool enough to not need to use it.
It is a little bit noisy due to the setup but when most/all were sleeping it was very quiet. Unfortunately if someone chooses to have a loud conversation in a room or in the courtyard it is very easy to hear them; or if someone is pressure cleaning with an air compressor (!).
The surrounding area is economically disadvantaged and whilst I felt safe walking about during daylight hours, I would not necessarily go off premises alone, or except to get straight into an uber or similar transport service.
All in all, I liked the staff who were friendly and helpful, and the premises are about what one would expect for a motel of its age that has clearly had some reasonable work done on it to improve it.
Lots of updates have been made to this place, so even though it's an older building, almost all the furniture/decor looks really new and the beds were comfortable. But there were still a few things that were not great – first, it would be a simple but huge improvement to provide each bathroom with its own small garbage can and with a bathmat, not just towels, since the shower stall water soaked out onto the bathroom floor, with nothing to sop it up with. (There was also zero shelf/counter-space in the bathroom.) Second, the description of my economy room said it included a "desk" but it did not! The descriptions should be changed to be accurate. Third, it was true that there was AC, but it was a "portable" AC unit, venting out the window with a huge hose – it worked fine but was VERY noisy. Last, quite a bit of sunlight still came through the curtains very early in the morning, even though we had tried to pull them tightly. Other than those things, I can tell that a lot of effort has been put into improving the place, but it was still not a very quiet/pleasant place to spend time, other than the beds being decently comfortable.
