"Fantastic location--we were attending a show at the Riverside. Underground self parking very convenient, with unlimited in/out access. Lobby bar was cool place to hang out before our show with some solo artists playing. Great vibe and enjoyed excellent wood fired pizza from Proof Pizza at the bar. Loved all the artistic and retro touches as well"

"This Historical Brewery turned into an inn, was a fun experience for our family to turn in for the night while visiting Milwaukee. The layout of the room & its amenities was well planned (all essentials were included & a few extras). Staff was very helpful in recommending places to dine. Sidebar note: I recommended you schedule some time in your itinerary to do the Pabst Tour & @ least one other Brewery Tour."
