1st coworker: "where the heck is milwaukee?"
2nd coworker: "shrug"

californians are pretty much clueless about other states except NY.... and hawaii. oh and vegas too.

sad to say, there isn't much in this city. it's beautiful though!

so IF you ever come to milwaukee..   stay at this great hotel!

The customer service is excellent and super friendly. The room is HUGE with high ceilings. So high it was a bit frightening. Felt like I was staying in a super $$$$ hotel!

In addition to the fitness center, continental breakfast, laundry room, and business center where you can print, they will buy your groceries for you FREE of charge!! Just bring them the list in the morning and they'll deliver the groceries to you. How awesome is that?? Did I mention the rooms have a full kitchen w/large fridge, microwave, AND stove?? Plus they have all the pots, pans, and dishes provided.. yay! you can still cook when you're away from home!

would def come back! if i ever come back...

I love this hotel; I'm a Hilton guy but when i go to Milwaukee i make an exception to stay here.  I travel often to big cities, and this is one of my favorite hotels.  I absolutely love the space in the room; the ceilings must be 20 feet high.  Compared to NYC, the prices are incredible; i think my room was $169/night.  Location is great for proximity to my clients in downtown Milwaukee.  

I had a biz meeting in milwaukee last week and had to bring our Director of Client Development.  He's from NYC and had never been Milwaukee, so i picked this hotel 'cause i love it and knew he would love the space.  I was right.

This is a really good hotel. The rooms are huge -- it's for staying in a long time. I've stayed in one for 3 days...and that was good. The place is clean and their breakfast buffet (which they humbly call "continental") is outstanding...they have everything under the sun -- from sausage and eggs to cereal to fresh fruit. Yum...it really is a place you could stay a while.

I'll come back to this hotel. Very nice...as a bonus, there's a Border's Bookstore attached on one side. Pretty cool.

I am upgrading the Residence Inn to 5 stars.  After staying at the Hilton, the Hyatt and the Hampton Inn I can safely say this is my favorite hotel in Milwaukee.  Seriously.  Book it, you won't be disappointed.

Wow, residence inn is soooo much nicer than its sister hotels: fairfield, courtyard, etc.

I'm here on a business trip for the week, and this is definitely a great place to come "home" to.  

The front desk staff is super helpful and nice.  The workout room actually has functioning equipment. My suite is huge and new with high ceilings and a view of the river.  Then there is the digital control for my central air, i.e. no waking up in the middle of the night feeling too hot or too cold.  There is also the customary free happy hour and free buffet breakfast.

And the location?  You're in the heart of downtown and close to the lakefront running path and loads of restaurants, shopping, bars, coffee shops, etc.

My only complaint?  You don't earn as many Marriott points as some of the other Marriott chains.  You also have to pay for parking... but thankfully I can expense it.

If I come back to Milwaukee on business, I'm definitely staying here again.
