Had an issue with the valet parking. Young man who took our key fob went off shift without logging it in. I only knew there was an issue because I did not receive the valet text for payment and retrieval. It took about 45 minutes to resolve. Glad I did not need vehicle right away! Rest of experience ...

Tru By Hilton Milwaukee Downtown, WI
Check-in was easy, as was check-out. Breakfast was good. The only thing I noticed was there was a cleaning cloth that was left on the counter in our bathroom. Beyond that, the room was clean and comfortable.
