7.6/10
A good airport stopover, with helpful staff but uneven room upkeep.
This practical 3-star airport hotel is a good pick for an early flight or short business stay, rather than a Milwaukee sightseeing base. Recent Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise helpful staff and convenient shuttle service; IHG advertises free airport transfers around the clock. Comfortable beds, in-room microwaves and fridges, an indoor pool and an on-site restaurant make it useful beyond simply sleeping near the terminal.
The trade-off is inconsistent upkeep: recent guests describe dated interiors and occasional housekeeping or maintenance misses, although cleanliness ratings remain broadly positive. Light sleepers should request a room away from Layton Avenue. Breakfast is not automatically included, and IHG now lists paid parking despite some booking sites advertising it free. We'd skip it for a polished stay or a walkable downtown weekend.

A good airport stopover, with helpful staff but uneven room upkeep. A practical 3-star airport hotel with a restaurant and indoor pool, scored for what it is.
This practical 3-star airport hotel is a good pick for an early flight or short business stay, rather than a Milwaukee sightseeing base. Recent Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise helpful staff and convenient shuttle service; IHG advertises free airport transfers around the clock. Comfortable beds, in-room microwaves and fridges, an indoor pool and an on-site restaurant make it useful beyond simply sleeping near the terminal.
The trade-off is inconsistent upkeep: recent guests describe dated interiors and occasional housekeeping or maintenance misses, although cleanliness ratings remain broadly positive. Light sleepers should request a room away from Layton Avenue. Breakfast is not automatically included, and IHG now lists paid parking despite some booking sites advertising it free. We'd skip it for a polished stay or a walkable downtown weekend.
Best for: early flights and airport stopovers; short business trips; families wanting an indoor pool
Watch out for: dated interiors and uneven upkeep; road noise in street-facing rooms; parking charges and breakfast exclusions
Location: Convenient for MKE and its free shuttle; less suitable for exploring downtown on foot.
Rooms: Comfortable beds and useful appliances, but recent guests report dated finishes and occasional maintenance issues.
Cleanliness: Generally positive across Expedia and Booking.com, with some recent housekeeping misses.
Service: Friendly staff and helpful shuttle drivers are recurring strengths; problem handling is less consistent.
Amenities: Indoor pool, hot tub, fitness center and M.K.E. Bar & Grille; check dining hours.
Fees and surprises: IHG lists paid parking despite conflicting listings; breakfast inclusion depends on the booking, and Booking.com lists a refundable deposit.
