Reasonably priced MKE stay

We were in town for Summerfest and this location was great, we parked at nearby Shorewood Brat House and shuttled in. The upper flat has a MCM theme and we even enjoyed listening to an album on the working Zenith hi-fi. Comfortable bed, great shower, safety features.

UWM Family orientation

Quick overnight stay for our new UWM student.We arrived late, did not get to experience much of the neighborhood, but the Main Street is noisy. Coffee Shop down the road was a quick walk and fabulous. Close proximity to UWM.

Cool vibes in Riverwest

We loved the 60's/70's vibe of the place - beautiful furniture that reminded us of our parents' and grandparents' homes. Especially loved the buffet/record player combination - my grandparents had one very similar so it was kind of nostalgic! Very well maintained and Karen was great to work with. I appreciated her flexibility when my sister wanted to stay on a few extra days.

Great location to downtown Milwaukee!

Stayed here for Harley Davidson's 115th celebration. The apartment was very clean and had a 1 car garage, perfect for our 3 motorcycles. Easy access to downtown Milwaukee. Karen was an excellent hostess and answered our questions quickly. Would definitely stay here again!

Great experience!

Karen was a dream to work with. She was very flexible when I extended the dates of our stay, twice. Kind, helpful, understanding. It was very nice to have a garage, too. I loved the pristine 60's/70's furnishings...brought back fond memories of my parents' house! I will definitely stay here again if the opportunity should arise. Thank you!

Very nice, clean and comfortable. Neat neighborhood. Walking distance to some nice restaraunts and bars. Easy access to downtown. Beds were very comfortable. Only issue was weak WiFi which the host felt might be due to recent storms in the area.

Why they chose this property

I was raised in a similar mid-century era duplex, and it was fun putting it together with furnishings of that period.
