Disliked: Staff & service
I was unable to arrive in time due to a flight cancellation. Expedia said I needed to contact Hilton. Front desk did not answer. Neither did they answer when the Hilton Honors desk called them. When I finally got through the next morning to attempt to cancel, they said Expedia would need to call with the request. When imfinally figured out how to bypass Expedia's "call thenhotel" prompts, they agreed to call. They were finally able to reach someone after a couple of attempts. Any refund was refused becausenImwas a no show android not contact the hotel. The very definition of a doom loop.

The stay was amazing. Starbucks inside the hotel was a let down by opening 1 1/2 hours late and then being limited by staff. Parking rates are very high and should be included in the package price. Other than those two issues it was perfect.

High Class at a price
The location is perfect for walking around downtown. The staff from being greeted at the front door to coming across house keeping by chance was always a wonderful experience. The building and room design is older than the other more modern properties in the area. This means that there isn't a microwave of mini-fridge like a lower cost property would have.

Our stay was average. The room wasn’t ready when we arrived and we ended up not getting the room we pre-reserved. The location was good and the lobby was beautiful. As for the room... the beds were tiny - they definitely could have fit queen beds in the room. And the bathroom needed a deep clean - the grout in the shower and around the shower bars was black in places. We’re budget travelers so we got what we paid for, but overall I expected a better experience from a Hilton.

Grand old Milwaukee
It is a grand old hotel, even has a pair of resident poodles like the Peabody ducks. Staff very attentive, bed nice and comfy. My wife thought the room smelled a little moldy. I thought it was more of stuff you’d use to fight off the mold. Didn’t even notice when we left and came back. Would have no problem going back.

Everything was great until we had a gentleman from housekeeping open our door at 8:30 in the morning unannounced. While checking out, I reported this to the front desk staff, the gentleman seemed like it was no big deal. However, the lady working next to him stated that she would definitely make sure it was reported to the correct person.
