Yes, the room was spotless and check in a breeze. I wish they had a coffee maker in the room as we are early risers. But the coffee at the desk was good and strong.

I always find the Forty Winks Inn to be clean and safe and quiet. The owners are very helpful . The only negative things are the rooms smell kind of "old" and they could use new pillows.

If you like to remove a dozen decorative pillows before you go to bed each night, this is not the place for you. If you value cleanliness, a comfortable bed, a quiet room in a safe and convenient location, and a wonderfully caring staff all at a really good price, I HIGHLY recommend Forty Winks Inn. I had a prolonged stay at the Inn that needed to be extended day by day due to a family emergency. While I initially booked on line, Lynn (the Inn’s wonderful manager) let me know that they had lower rates for people needing to be close to the nearby hospitals and charged me that for the rest of my stay. Because I was uncertain day-to-day of whether I’d be returning that night, I actually experienced three of the Inn’s rooms and each was spacious, clean, and comfortable.

Great place to stay

Rooms are dated, but really clean. Owner was super sweet when we checked in and anytime we had a question about the area. Fair rate. Forty Winks is going to be our new place to stay when we visit family in Milwaukee. Good location and convenient to everywhere we visited.
