First off, ignore the reviews and the one stars. If you read it: these people did not even give…read morethis place a chance. The neighborhood is not dangerous. The neighborhood has old Milwaukee feel, like true residential feel. This place was restored roughly 25 years ago. It was originally built in 1886 and condemned to be torn down before they saved it. It took 7 years to really revive it. The grounds, the building, the details, the architecture, and sheer care that went into this place is very evident. It is so beautiful and the hospitality is even beyond. Truly a wonderful experience. I don't stay at bed and breakfast much because I usually opt for the hotels and it's amenities but I must this place definitely has changed my mind---although it is unique. I stayed in Sophie's room and it was very well maintained. The water pressure is actually very good and you can definitely come and go as you please. The breakfasts are delicious. They will use vegetables from the yard for omelets or Andrew's famous French toast w/ "brewed" vanilla. They are wonderful company and extremely cordial and down to earth folks. If I ever come back to Milwaukee---because this was a random spur-of-the-moment trip--I would stay here again. Definitely recommending it to others!

I really wanted to give this cute place a higher rating. I went for a weekend with my sister and…read morewas not thrilled. Positives: Decor: the place itself was quaint and very well decorated with pieces from the time. Nature - my favorite part was the beautiful walk though the woods on property just feet from the house. Stunning. Negatives: Bed was under 5 feet long! Since I'm 5'5", it was a terrible night of not sleeping. I couldn't lie on my back as I usually do, because my feet needed another 6-12" of space. Curled on my side could have worked if the mattress didn't sag so much. I stayed in a room that calls this bed a 3/4 bed online. No explanation of what that means. I googled it and found that 3/4 beds are normal length but between a twin and a full. That is not what this bed was. After our stay, I emailed the owner and asked her to update the listing with more information so I could give it a better review. She said she would but that was almost two months ago. The review still states that 3 people could stay in that room, which would only be true if one of the people were 4'6" or shorter. Breakfast was not what I'd have expected from a b&b. First, I'm used to being able to sit at a table near other couples but not be forced to be at the same table as we were here. Half a nice grapefruit was a good start. Then some slices of store bought krugel. Fine. But then no eggs. No savory portion. Just straight from the store bought coffee cake to some kind of French toast which seemed mostly just bread and sugar. She asked who eats sausage. I don't but then there was no protein replacement which was fine but not ideal. Also, breakfast isn't served until 9a which seemed quite late to me.

Extremely Disappointing Experience -- Do Not Recommend…read more I would strongly discourage anyone from staying at this hotel. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing from start to finish, and the hotel showed very little concern for accommodating its guests. We booked a room as part of a wedding room block back in February 2026 for a wedding we were attending on August 8. I originally reserved the room for two people and specifically requested two queen beds, as my son, who owns a business, was unsure whether he would be able to attend due to this being an especially busy time of year for him. As soon as I learned that my son would be able to attend, I contacted the hotel to confirm that adding a third adult to the reservation would not change the price. I was told that it would not. Based on that conversation, we fully expected to arrive and have the two-queen-bed room we had reserved months earlier. Instead, upon arrival, we were told that the hotel had the right to change our reservation and that they could provide us with a king-bed room for three adults. The staff, including the manager, made no meaningful effort to find a reasonable solution. Their suggestions were that my adult son sleep upright in a chair or on the floor. This was completely unacceptable. After traveling to Milwaukee for a wedding and making our reservation six months in advance, we were left without suitable accommodations and ultimately had to leave the wedding early and make a 1 1/2-hour drive home because there were no other available rooms in the Milwaukee area. What made this experience even more frustrating was the hotel's attitude. Rather than taking responsibility or trying to find a solution, they relied on what they described as "house rules" to justify changing the accommodations we had reserved. A hotel should honor reservations, communicate clearly with its guests, and make a genuine effort to resolve problems when they arise. Unfortunately, none of that happened here. This was an absolutely horrendous experience, and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Milwaukee area. Save yourself the frustration and stay somewhere else.

We stayed at Dubbel Dutch while in town for a weekend at Summerfest. The boutique hotel is within…read morewalking distance of the festival which was very convenient and saved us Uber fees. Location, location, location! The hotel is built within a remodeled mansion and has the basic amenities you want in a hotel - AC, WiFi, modern bathrooms, plenty of outlets - while still maintaining its unique charm. I wish there were more surfaces in our hotel for storing my toiletries in the bathroom, a place to set things in the room (aside from the floor), a desk. This may be unique to our room, all the rooms at the hotel are different. Not an inconvenience, more a note to ownership for an easy usability upgrade. We had an issue with our automatic lock keypad at midnight after walking home from the festival. We texted the number and someone responded right away. There is not a front desk here so quick response to offsite staff is critical. The hotel contact was friendly and drove to us in 15 minutes to resolve the issue. Tips if you stay here - a) get pre-reservations at Agency cocktail bar set inside the hotel if you're into libations (including non alcoholic). It's a small space and super fun time, they book up quickly! b) when they offer you a dedicated parking space right outside the hotel for an additional fee, take it. We found this so convenient to have our car in the same spot for the full stay I enjoyed the stay here and would happily stay here again, particularly with any planned downtown activities.

Get to the mansion right at 4 to get first pick of breakfast time slots. You'll be on a 30 minute or so tour of the home when you arrive.

Our famlily loved the seperate stand alone entrance to our loft , this allowed us to come and go and not interfer with the restaurant guests. The kitchen and room setup was amazing.

We could park the scooters on the curb outside the building and that was very convienent for us to come and go and have a scooter available The Sorella Restaurant that shares the building is amazing , we had a neapolitan pizza" and 2 pasta dishes and it was supurb and a fast easy for guests to have a great meal and not have to leave. This will be the only place that we will stay when we come back to Milwaukee in a few years. Thanks again for providing a wonderfull guest expirence.

God, where do I start?…read more First off the place is sophisticated and well appointed. That's not the problem. I was there on a Saturday night and my room was just above the street, freeway side. There was non-stop drag racing, loud stereos and yelling till 3AM. At first I thought the window was open because it felt so close, like it was 10 feet away. Turns out there's just really poor noiseproofing. They do provide ear plugs but they didn't help. When i complained about it, (everything by text, BTW) they said they had never heard that complaint. The first lie of a series of other crazy lies. At checkout, Rosa said she would talk to the owner and adjust my bill. I thought.... great! Weeks go by and like 20 texts, still no credit. I called and talked to the owner. He assured me I would get the credit. Another week goes by. Finally they said they had issued the credit and sent me some "proof". My name and the words "-$100". What the hell was this? I still had no credit, having checked my credit card daily. Finally, almost a month goes by and I email the owner and say, I never got the credit. He said he didn't have time for this and they would void the credit card "credit" and mail me a check. It's been weeks and still no check. I figure these grifters need the money more than I do so I'll just let this review suffice. Stay at your own risk. Sketchy as hell!
