Crowne Plaza Milwaukee Airport by IHG
"The bathroom toilet didn’t work well and we didn’t get any assistance with that. Everything else was okay. It wasn’t super clean but it wasn’t too terribly dirty either. There was someone leaf blowing with a back pack leaf blower at 6:30am on Saturday morning and that was very frustrating."
