    Schuster Mansion Bed & Breakfast - Friends ready for Mollie's Tea

    Schuster Mansion Bed & Breakfast

    NOT family-friendly. In fact, not friendly AT ALL. My…read moresister and I started a Christmas tradition a few years ago of taking our daughters (ages 6 and 7) to afternoon tea. This year we decided to try Low Tea at the Schuster Mansion. I truly wish I had read the reviews beforehand, because we would not have booked -- and after our visit, I now understand why so many others had similar experiences. I noticed from those reviews, the owner seems to respond by gaslighting those who gave negative reviews- very unprofessional behavior. But here's our story anyways. From the moment we walked in, the tone was unwelcoming. The owner immediately made it clear that children were not really wanted there, repeatedly saying that "this is for adults" and that the girls would need to "act like adults." She even told them they should feel lucky to be allowed there at all. When my daughter simply looked at a bowl of candy near the entrance, she was sharply told that the candy was only for adults. Expecting young children not to even look at candy felt unreasonable and unnecessarily harsh. Absurd. We were told to wander while our coats were taken, but when we did exactly that, we were abruptly scolded and made to feel like we were doing something wrong. At that point, we honestly should have left. When we were seated, the tablecloth was still dirty and there were crumbs left behind. The owner continued to lecture us about how the space was meant for adults, insisting tea was meant for ages 8+. That directly contradicts their own website, which states that tea is appropriate for ages 5 and up. The atmosphere became so uncomfortable that my sister even asked the owner whether it would be better if we left. The tea service itself was disappointing. The tea was lukewarm at best even after being told that we had to wait while the tea was being warmed. We were never told what the desserts were, and we were not offered water refills. While seated, I also overheard the owner speaking negatively to other guests about a previous guest she had from England, which added to the uncomfortable feeling. The area near our table was dusty and clearly hadn't been cleaned in some time. We left as soon as we could -- and it felt like the owner was eager for us to go as well. The bright spot of the afternoon was a kind guest who came over specifically to tell us how polite and well-behaved our girls were. Afterward, we took the girls to Colectivo for hot chocolate, which they enjoyed far more. They even said they felt happy to finally be somewhere they could just be kids again. Overall, we felt like an inconvenience rather than paying guests. The tone from the owner was condescending and unfriendly, especially toward children, which made the entire experience stressful instead of special. We will not return and unfortunately cannot recommend Schuster Mansion to others.

Every detail, from the vintage Kleenex box covers to the antique books, frames, china, and lampshades, is thoughtfully curated. Modern comforts like a water filtration system, private parking, and WiFi seamlessly blend in (but you're sooo happy they're available!). Rick and Laura Sue are remarkable hosts, handling everything themselves--check-in, high tea, dinner, breakfast, even changing light bulbs. Please extend them grace as they are handling everything themselves- I had to check my fast paced city girl at the door;) This isn't your typical stay; it's uniquely special. Rick and Laura Sue's stories and warm hospitality make booking a room with them a lovely and unforgettable experience. They even taught me the difference between high tea and low tea;) I would absolutely stay here again when I visit Milwaukee!

From the moment I walked in, the lobby was overwhelmed with a heavy, Axe body spray-like scent--so strong it felt like walking through a middle school locker room. I assumed it was temporary and that my room would be a relief, but unfortunately, it was worse. The room smelled musty, like a house that hasn't been aired out in years. To make matters worse, the wallpaper was peeling off the walls, which is unacceptable for a hotel at this level. Beyond that, the overall cleanliness of the hotel was lacking. For a boutique property, I expected a much higher standard, but the space felt worn and not well-maintained. The bed was hard and uncomfortable, and the towels were rough--far from the soft, high-end feel you'd expect. The most concerning part of my stay, though, was waking up at 1:45 AM struggling to breathe. It genuinely felt like a reaction to something in the room--possibly mold or poor air quality. I initially thought I was getting sick, but after spending a few hours away the next day, I felt completely normal again, which makes it hard to ignore the room as the cause. If you have any respiratory sensitivities, be cautious. I contacted the front desk to explain the situation and was told checking out early without being charged for another night wouldn't be an issue. I even offered to return around noon so they could turn the room, but was told not to worry since they weren't sold out. When I returned later that day, there was no note, and the staff refused to honor what I had been told, citing the late checkout time. While I understand policies, the inconsistency and lack of follow-through were frustrating. I also dined at the hotel restaurant, which didn't help the experience. The food was overpriced for the quality--my salad was warm, fries were room temperature, and clearly sat out too long. Dessert was equally disappointing; the lemon tart was buried under an excessive amount of powdered sugar, making it unpleasant to eat. It's honestly a sad day when I transferred to a basic airport hotel--Hyatt Place Milwaukee Airport--and had a significantly better experience. The bed was more comfortable, the towels were actually soft, and even the shampoo and conditioner were noticeably better quality. On top of that, the Hyatt was spotless, which only made the lack of cleanliness at Iron Horse stand out even more. Overall, this stay fell far below expectations. Between the condition of the room, air quality concerns, cleanliness issues, and poor service recovery, I won't be returning.

Our room was incredibly comfortable and immaculately clean. Breakfast was delicious, filling, beautiful, and unique. The location is also great, as it's a quick Uber to the heart of downtown or to the airport, and a very short walk to lots of fun bars. I also recommend a longer walk to St Josaphat Basilica, which was recommended by Mary Ellen and also some other guests. It was probably the most beautiful church I've seen in the US. This place is an absolute steal, and staying here made our relaxing and adventurous weekend away even more memorable.

We had lunch one day at Centraal which was very good. We wanted to try a few more restaurants but already had family commitments to attend. We definitely plan on returning to the Muse in the near future and look forward to trying the other local restaurants. Lastly, we stayed in the Cheryl room which had the private bathroom just outside the room. This was no problem at all as we still felt very comfortable and it was still very convenient. Cute room, comfortable bed, and overall a wonderful place to stay. Oh yeah, the breakfasts were tasty, filling and set me up for the rest of my day!! A must stay! Excellent value and quality.

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 still had to sleep in heavy sweatpants and sweatshirt. We rented the one bedroom suite since my son is 10 and it says there's a fold out sofa bed. We discovered that the mattress of the sofa bed is enclosed in very thick, noisy plastic and no sheets are provided. So we folded it up as it was unusable. On the thirds day of our stay, I asked the front desk if housekeeping could come while we were out. They looked at me like I had two heads. She asked me when I had arrived and when I was leaving. Our visit was 5 nights and 6 days. No one had come to check on paper products, towels, and trash, which seemed odd to me, as a guest renting a suite that had paid over $1000 for our stay. The front desk informed me that I am responsible for removing the trash and that if I needed bathroom or facial tissue, she could give me a box or roll to bring up to the room myself. The kicker for me though is that in the room there's a table tent with a QR Code for "cashless tipping" of the housekeeping staff. Also, neither the oven or stovetop in the kitchenette were working and my husband had to repair the shower. All in all, it's a very beautiful hotel. I understand it's an older building too, so the situation with the stove, shower, and temperature were not a big deal. However, a hotel that is touts itself as top tier for service and excellence needs to provide proper bedding and certainly be making housekeeping visits daily to freshen towels, beds made, remove trash, and replenish paper products and toiletries. Expecting your guests to be hauling their trash out to the dumpster is absurd.

There was no follow-through with agreed-upon actions. When attempts were made to follow up with management, they were ignored. This was until the Better Business Bureau became involved, which, of course, then dissolved any goodwill. Unfortunately, it was the only way to get any response. This used to be our preferred hotel to stay at while in Milwaukee due to the beauty of the building, the charm of the area, and its location, but there appears to be a change in management. We will never return. I suggest the Pfister Hotel 5 minutes away.
