Holiday Inn Express Milwaukee West Allis by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived early and we were actually able to go ahead and check in. The girl at the desk was super helpful and friendly! Lots of options for breakfast as well!"

𖤓Blue Storefront 2000sqft Arcade, Pooltable, Foosball, State Fair𖤓

10/10 Excellent

"This was perfect for our group. the area is really quiet and the access to so many attractions was excellent. The host was very communicative and helped when we had one issue. If we ever come back to the area we will stay here."

Charming 2-bedroom house with everything you need in the heart of West Allis

10/10 Excellent

"This little oasis is wonderful. Dog parents, this is your place! The backyard is fully fenced and large for some fun! The neighbors are very dog friendly too. The house is cozy, but, more than efficient for what we needed. The bathroom isn’t made for big booties, but, that’s not the owners fault. And I definitely made it work. Just a heads up for my fellow big bootied people Everything is stocked including the essentials like shampoo and body wash. If you need extra towels, bring them. Not a ton of living room seating, but, plenty of ways to make up for it. We had dinner for 7, and found all the ways to be able to eat together in the living room. Just be creative. Paper plates are a must if you have more than four. But, I think most expect that in a cozy VRBO. The beds were comfy and the rooms were cool. We brought blankets to cover the beds and furniture as the hosts request, so our dogs could enjoy the comfy places too. Bonus if you crate your dog, the king room has space for a large travel kennel! Bradley was so kind, answering all of my questions, and making sure we had what we needed. The location is great! Close to many delicious restaurants, grocery stores, the fairgrounds are two blocks over, and if you have appointments at Froedert like me, this is a 6 minute commute! Thank you, Bradley. We hope to be back! I’m sure Kori and Kaia agree!"

Wauwatosa Home With Putting Green & Game Room

10/10 Excellent

"It was a relaxing stay. The nest was clean and cozy with everything thoughtfully put together. The neighborhood was peaceful. The kitchen was well equipped and clean. The back and front yard was pretty. The help we asked for came quickly. The kids loved their room too! Thanks!"
