Terrible check in
Got there at 5:15 and tried to check in. Was told room was not available. And need to wait an hour for them to clean. Terrible check in experience. Needed to get in the room to get ready for the night and unable to.

Love the Knickerbocker
As usual, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Knickerbocker on the Lake. I love being able to walk to Juneau Park safely to enjoy the out of doors. When visiting in the summer, I always take advantage of the Juneau Park Beer Garden. This visit was the first time I ate at the Knick, the on-site restaurant. I had the best grilled shrimp mango salad.

For the Knickerbocker being an "older" hotel, we thought the room was very nice, clean and quiet. We will consider staying here again when we venture to Milwaukee in the future. Top notch.

Pretty good, other than there was a bunch of spiders and webs by the back door in the parking lot. And some of the channels in the tv was out of contract so that was kinda an inconvenience.
