This is the cheapest hotel near the airport. We stayed here for one night. The parking lot isn't a secure place to park a car (I didn't notice any surveillance, though it could be wrong) as there's no barrier between your vehicle and the sidewalk. When we arrived, two police cars were parked at the entrance and doing some police business inside the building, unseen. The check in process was easy and the lady working the counter was really nice. Everyone staying in the room had to provide ID, which is intrusive but perhaps necessary at an establishment with this much regular police intervention. Twice I stepped into the hallway after checking-in to find a police woman walking a drug dog up and down the hallway. Our air conditioner didn't work; we called the front desk twice and they gave us some troubleshooting options which all consisted of "wait for a while". We were given the opportunity to switch rooms around 9pm when we got back from dinner, but it was late and we were already unpacked. It would have been nice if the air conditioner had been functioning, though. The next morning we got up early to pack and hit the advertised free breakfast, to find that it consisted of coffee and hot chocolate only. No fruit, no cereal, no food. Just coffee and hot chocolate. We weren't late, either. We checked with the desk clerk and she told us that the coffee and hot chocolate WERE the free breakfast. So, unless this was a fluke, don't believe the free breakfast claims. Overall, the room was a bit crumby, but it was the cheapest airport hotel we could find. We ended up back in Milwaukee several days later and opted to go to the Super 8, which at a scant 10$ more, was a significant step up in quality. I cannot recommend this place unless the 10$ in cost between here and the next cheapest place means that much to you.
