This property suited what we needed for our trip to Milwaukee
5.0
The property was located in a great location within walking distance to downtown and restaurants/bars. It was both clean and comfortable. Although the property was obviously older the price was right for what it offered.

The property was just as it was described. It was within walking to everything we wanted to do and the neighborhood was nice and safe.

Complete transparency. Great communication was much appreciated before we checked in and during our stay. That being said, the place was not fully cleaned or maintained outside. Not sure why they charge the cleaning fee. I think pictures of the fridge showing how dirty it was on the inside. Found dirty silverware when I went to get a fork out to use. Yeah I guess these things can happen but I would pay attention to details like this! We also tripped a breaker using one air conditioner. There are 3 units within, but at the time we were only using one. We contacted the owner who did respond in a timely manner. They told us that it can happen and to try to just use the one air conditioner. We didn’t have a problem with that as it was our last night there and we were going to be gone for the evening and the temp was fairly mild. But that wasn’t what was included in the listing. We were in the upper duplex part and my husband had to go outside, locate the basement entrance and flip the breaker. That did fix the problem and we were afraid to use the air anymore as it might be a fire hazard. Also the outside needs maintained better for safety, especially at night. Overgrown bushes and weeds by stairs entering home.
Like I said, very good with communication but need to fix a few things.

The property is located in a great little neighborhood walking distance to Brady St. The upper unit is in need of tlc & lots of cleaning. We had to scrub the tub & the top of fridge before considering to stay & rough it out. The unit has very poor lighting, especially in the bathroom. The owner was very responsive to our questions & accommodated us with early check in.

Owner communicated very well and we had an awesome stay. We loved how close it was to fun bars and restaurants.

After a brief hiccup checking in that was no fault of the owners themselves (and the owner was quick to respond and fix), our stay was quite enjoyable. We loved the location, found the bed to be super comfy, and had a wonderful weekend in Milwaukee!

We were very comfortable in this space in terms of the nececities available and the hominess of the apartment. It was easy to head down to the street and walk the dogs. The neighborhood was nice and in close, but not too close proximity to the action on Brady street. Would stay here again.

Loved it!
The duplex is charming, loved that we could walk to lots of great restaurants! We especially loved Casablanca, food was great and the atmosphere fun! Loved Kompali, great tacos! Go on Tuesday, $1 off tacos! Loved Apollo’s, great food at very reasonable prices! If you like vintage clothes, check out Bandit! For coffee/tea, Rochambo’s is wonderful and the staff super friendly and nice!
I’d stay here again!!

Property was clean and well located. The main problem was that VRBO sent the wrong door code. I had to call owner to get the right code to enter

We choice this rental as it was close to our daughters apartment. We knew it was an older property and are ok with that. The issues were about lack of maintenance. The paint was badly in need of touch up, a chair in the living room dirty, peeling paint and weeds by the entrance, broken blinds, etc. It could be really a cute place with some TLC. That being said, nothing was enough to send us packing, but would not stay again.

This home is in terrible condition; run-down, broken windows, and not secure. In addition, when we arrived it was filthy; human and dog hair in the bed, human hair in the silverware drawer and bath tub,greasy table and dusty floors. It was very obvious someone had been living there.This is probably the worst home on the block, and is definitely the worst rental we have ever had!
