Ambassador Hotel Milwaukee, Trademark Collection by Wyndham
The bar was great! Reasonable drink prices and 1/2 price apps. The bartender was very friendly. We used the shuttle to go to the Brewers game and that was great! I also felt safe at this property. I liked the gated parking and it was easily accessible. We will stay here again.
