Saint Kate - The Arts Hotel
I did see pets coming and going, which is great. My room was clean but I did not like being unable to control the mini-fridge temp. Drinks weren't kept very cold.

We loved our stay at The Westin Milwaukee. The room was very comfortable. We also enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the restaurant, and breakfast the next morning. A huge plus was that we were walking distance to The Pabst Theater.
