4/10 Fair

Wasn’t horrible, but not great…
When we got into our room the bathroom had a dirty wash cloth with makeup all over it. A dirty cup and used water bottle on the counter. There was hair in the sink, on the floor in the bathroom, and on our comforter. I felt like it was very dirty.

8/10 Very Good

The good and bad
I couldn't connect my iPhone to the TV. Followed all the directions and then went to the front desk to ask for help. Front desk gave me a number to call. I waited on hold for 50 minutes. Finally got someone and that person couldn't help me??? He said someone would call me back who could and no one ever called. I wasn't surprised. Long term fixes: I wish you had a fan/vent in the bathroom. Lights in the coffee nook would be great. Otherwise, it's a nice place and Jayden at the front desk was very nice.

Only complaint was that the noise from the water running through the sewer line down through the walls from the toilet flushing and the shower draining in the room above us was really loud.

Great stay in great area of Milwaukee
Great location and very clean rooms. The continental breakfast was great with plenty of options. The valet parking was confusing on our arrival and we chose to park in structure next to property because the valet area was to busy.

Location was great and walkable to a lot. Staff was friendly. The room has a leftover mint on the floor but other than that was clean. Bathroom was clean. Would stay here again.

The place itself was nice but self parking was $20 per night,Valet was $39 per night and nobody told me that when i reserved so basically i paid $225-250 a night to stay in a Holiday inn, live and learn pretty nice other than getting scammed on parking

8/10 Very Good

Two night reservation was made late in the day. Unfortunately the room availability that was listed on Expedia did not match what was actually available at the Holiday Inn Exoress. Staff person was very apologetic but as a result my wife and I had to stay in separate rooms the first night - and we had to re-check into our rooms on day two. Room was nice on day two but I was shocked that I was not offered any discount for the inconvenience we experienced on the first day.
