Holiday Inn Express Hotel Germantown - Northwest Milwaukee

New ownership and new name. When we pulled I said I don't know there are shingles missing on the roof. We walked in no one was at the desk but a note was up and with in 5minutes we had someone there to check us in. Very quiet hotel, they are making improvements. The lobby was clean quaint and smelled great. Room has cold ac,the shower has great water pressure. The hotel is non smoking but we smelled smokers in the hallway but not our room. If you're a picky person, then see cosmetic items could use improvement. But I rather have a clean room which we had. Only negative was dust on the baseboard behind the bathroom door. They have Dove toiletries so you don't have to bring you're own or if you forgot them. Not a bad stay and I think the past reviews may have been accurate ,but noted by the hotel owners.

This hotel seemed to have a lot of maintenance needs. The ice maker on the first floor was not working and the washer/dryer on the second floor were not working either. Those things did not bother me that much, but they were noticeable. The pool area was nice, but the hours were 9 to 9. I was really surprised they would close that early. One thing that was strange was that the fitness center was open 24 hours, but you had to go through the pool area to get there.

We have never been in such an appallingly dirty place. We open the drawer of the nightstand and were amazed to find it was full of rotting food, empty tobacco containers, and, and more. You had to be there to see the stinking mess. And then a glance at the toilet area was awful. We would never darken this place's door again. Nor should you.
