10 day stay after surgery in Milwaukee
The property was perfect. Very clean everything I needed. I live in Virginia but went to the Medical College of Wisconsin for ankle surgery as the surgery done in Virginia failed. The apartment was PERFECT for me as I needed to get around on a knee scooter. So the open plan worked very well. Also, the walk-in shower was a plus and the full size stacked washer and dryer were great. In addition the furniture seemed brand new, was comfortable and the apt was impeccably clean. I called the host with questions 2 times and each time he answered the phone. So no need to leave message and 2 instant answers All in all a great place to stay and visit Marquette University friends from 40 years ago. I would recommend this apt to anyone. PS: Forgot to mention the building used to be where the Milwaukee Journal and Sentinel papers staff was located. It was renovated into apartments and condos and just opened 2 years ago. So whole building is brand new.
Stayed 10 nights in Jan 2024
