Great location, lots to do within walking distance, quiet building, nice accommodations. Our main concern was the accuracy of the listing. There were five flights of VERY steep stairs, some without handrails or visual markings to get up to the apartment. This presents significant concerns for anyone with mobility issues. I would not recommend for anyone with visual impairments, mobility concerns with stairs or who needs to carry strollers up and down.

The property was very nice. Great communication from owner. It was quite warm during our stay and we would have preferred better air-conditioning options. There were more stairs to get to property than we had we expected and was rather hard for older adults, small children and bringing up luggage and supplies. Very clean place with small number of things to do when checking out. We didn't use garage and street parking was easy. Comfy couch and beds. Plenty of room and supplies for this family of 8! Appreciated the coffee pods and snacks that were left for us.

Landlord was extremely responsive. Property had everything we needed. Location was perfect for downtown and lake activities. The unit became a bit warm (especially the kids' bedroom) on the couple days that the weather was quite hot, but the two main bedrooms were very comfortable.

My family was in town for a concert. The rental was close to the Lakefront and easy to get around from the unit. The only feature that I would have wanted to know ahead of time was the amount of stairs to get up to the unit. They were narrow, and steep. It made a few family members feel a little uneasy, especially bringing bags and food upstairs. It certainly didn’t impact our trip, we just would have known ahead of time.

Events ? No events ?

Overall the place was very nice and lots a space . On the other hand it was a lot of stairs . I booked for the small game night on new years . Even when the site says it allows 10 guest they told me a different (lower) number in the check in information . (hints the place said events allowed only reason I booked . With that being said the host tried to cancel my reservation saying I would get a refund when I was already in the unit . Also saying it was a party suspected when I already told them what Was going to happen.

Good time in Milwaukee!

My college friends and I rented this flat for the night. Close to Fiserv Forum so we could enjoy the game. Close to downtown restaurants for dinner. It accommodated all five of us with ease. Even had a foosball table to entertain us! Would definitely book again.

Worth staying

The property was a good place to stay at! I will say it was what we needed for everyone to stay and have a place to sleep. The only issue with was trying to fit a vehicle in the garage. We took my friends Tahoe and it was a tough spot to fit in the garage, which we can tell it’s meant for smaller vehicles. And there were a pair of eyelashes set out on the coffee table. But overall for anyone with a bigger family or group of friends that need somewhere to stay I would recommend this location!

Family fun first time

Spacious “small” spot to stretch out after touring the city. Very clean and accommodating. Communication with the owner, fast and helpful. Since we visited in the summer, our nights were a bit uncomfortably hot without central air, despite the few small room ac units.
