LONG TERM STAYS WELCOME. Unit is right off Brady Street, one of the best streets in Milwaukee. Over 70 places to eat or drink within walking distance, including bars with free shuttles to brewers games and Summerfest. There are many shops and grocery stores in the neighborhood and everything you could possibly want is a short Uber ride away. Best enjoyed by up to four people whether they be couples, friends, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets)



The space is a private Upper unit in a quaint old school Milwaukee duplex. This is not a modern-built house it has the character of the 100-year-old building it is. It contains 2 bedrooms (both with Queen beds, one room has a curtain as its door) and a roomy living room with a futon couch. We have a fully stocked kitchen so that you can cook your own meals and there is a laundry area for you to use in the basement. We provide WIFI and a TV with Roku built-in, allowing access to Netflix, Hulu, and several other apps. The TV has an antenna for local channels. Windows are in the process of being replaced.



You'll have access to the entire Upper level of the duplex, including balcony. Kids and pets are always welcome!



We will be staying near by and will be available if any help is needed, we can also provided any suggestions to great things to do in the area.

We are a half a block away from a bus stop, however we recommend Uber. Uber is cheap in Milwaukee, and with our home being centrally located most fairs are $5-10. However the bus located on Brady (the green line) goes directly to the Airport stopping in Bayview, The third ward, Downtown, Water street, North Street and up to the Bayshore mall. Most fun things to do are located with walking distance off the Green line and we wouldn't recommend switching buses as it can be confusing and lead to bad areas of town. New to Milwaukee is a tram car that you can also use to get around certain parts of downtown.



We are located near Zipcars, and bubbler bike rentals. If renting a car street parking is normally very easy to find on our block.



Occupancy Tax: there will be an Wisconsin state occupancy tax of 15.1% on your reservation.



Cancellation Policy: please be aware our cancellation policy is set to strict due to the demand for the space. So be sure before booking.



Parking: there is no on site parking but there is free street parking right outside the unit but Milwaukee only allows three free nights over a 30 day period, and Saturdays are always free and don’t count toward your total. If you are staying with us for longer than that a parking pass may be needed and costs $20. The $20 is for a 4-month pass which is the lowest time frame available.

    We stayed here for Summerfest and it worked out great! It was a 40 min walk but Uber was also available! It was just what we needed. Communication with the host was quick and professional. We had questions upon checking in and we were able to contact the host immediately with a response. If you are concerned about street noise at night this may not be the place for you. Brady Street is very close and brings lots of noise at night. This may not always be the case but it definitely was for Summerfest weekend.

    Amazing location. We didn’t need anything fancy for our trip, mainly a place to crash at night in a good location to get to a few different places in the city. For having window A/C units, the place was very easy to cool down and stay cool during our late August trip. We also appreciated the comfy beds and good water pressure. Overall very good vibes. We love that it’s dog friendly, but a heads up that there’s nothing to block the stairs to the front door, so we had to make shift a barricade for our dumb curious dog who hurts themselves on stairs. So if your dog doesn’t do well with stairs, just know you might have to block off that area. Also, if you’re taller than 5’7, watch your head coming up the front steps. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely keep this on our list of places to stay when we come back to Milwaukee. It’s truly a great location to explore the city.

    This is a small upstairs apartment in a very old home! Went to Milwaukee to visit my daughter. Just needed a clean place to sleep in a convenient location. Nothing fancy. Worked out great for us. Great communication with owner.

    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.

    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!
