I really liked how it was in downtown Waukesha. I didn't rent a car and I didn't even miss it. I walked everywhere and felt very safe as a single woman. There were several dining options very close by and affordable. Wednesday and Thursday were very quiet and Friday night was kind of loud with people partying outside at the local bars. It didn't affect me too much. I loved my room. It was spacious and had high ceilings. The bed was SUPER comfortable and the shower was great.

Location downtown had us more options of eating. Parking was almost 2 blocks away. Being on 3 Rd floor of hotel elevator only goes to 2nd floor. No staff and check in was easy as they gave you a code for the lockbox.

Not a cookie cutter hotel. Rooms were nostalgic but very comfortable, clean and roomy. Staff was extremely friendly. Located in heart of downtown making walking to shopping and dinning extremely easy. Off site parking garage was only a block away and only $3 per day.
