Hilton Milwaukee
Checkin was quick as staff helpful & professional. Hotel was clean. This hotel is updated and you can tell it is older. Very busy lobby but vibrant and welcoming. We enjoyed the parking ramp next to hotel and you could walk through the tunnel to the hotel- you didn’t have to go out on the street. ...
