Property was great. There was a valet sign outside the hotel but in fact no valet. I was told that id been sent a text about there not being any valet service but checked and had not received anything. Perhaps remove the sign if you aren’t offering that service. Also the registration process requiring uploads of drivers license etc as pretty cumbersome. Otherwise the hotel was great

Code didn’t work when we got here, no cold water in the bathroom sink and maintenance could seem to figure it out. To get drinking water had to go to the second floor, they could have at least offered some bottles of water. For the cost, you’d think we could coffee in our room rather than having to get dressed and go up to the second floor to make coffee. The bathroom door had a lock hanging out but no hole in the frame to actually lock and unable to close completely.

We enjoyed one night at this lovely property in downtown Milwaukee. The rooms are beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The open gathering space on each floor is a great concept. It offers a full chefs kitchen and comfortable seating and space to hang out with friends. Charles the owner of Kinn was very kind and accommodating.

This property is nice and conveniently located in downtown. Room was very large and clean. One small complaint, the fitted sheet seemed too small for the mattress and constantly pulled off the corners. Fair warning, we had a ground level room right next to a busy street and the vehicle noise was very loud at times - particularly on weekend nights when we had cars blaring music outside our window frequently until 3 AM. This is not the hotel's fault, just a result of the location. The most important factor to consider is the level of attention you may require from staff as this property operates on a unique "limited staff" concept. This was ok for us as we are generally pretty self-sufficient, but it was problematic because we elected to use the valet service which required us to text or call a number when we needed our car or brought it back to be parked. After our texts went unanswered a few times we tried calling, and calls would not go through. My husband pointed this out to an employee but the problem persisted. This was a bit frustrating when we needed our car and were waiting around the lobby with no staff to be found. We never encountered more than one employee on the property at a time, and even that was somewhat spotty. Again, just consider whether this will meet your needs before booking, especially if you are accustomed to 24/7 front desk assistance, etc. Overall, the price is arguably a bit steep to not have staff readily available.

The property was very clean, quiet, safe & unique! I was incredibly impressed with the amenities, everything else listed above and how safe I felt staying here! Really great location, too. ONLY thing i would change is having the bar/restaurant open more often - didn't open until 5pm on a Saturday! Regardless, great property & stay.

The hotel is a great location on staff are not available all the time, but it does feel more like a home than a hotel, especially with a giant common room. The great Accommodations Of the laundry The breakfast cereal and yogurt with granola and the assortment of coffee and teas are available all night long was really well placed plus the rooms are gorgeous and high ceilings

Nice space for the weekend!
We enjoyed our stay here. They are very hands off and give you an access code to all the doors you need so you don't actually speak with a human to check in. The room itself was nice, the bed was surprisingly comfortable for a hotel. The artwork on the walls was a bit odd, but I think this might be part of the artsiness of this hotel. The common areas on each floor were super nice and well thought out. We appreciated that. The shower was European style with the open door concept which we personally don't like but the biggest issue was the water temperature from the sink and shower were very inconsistent.

This hotel was nice. The rooms are clean and comfortable. High ceilings, nice shower. There is a common area with a kitchen, lounge area, and office room just outside the bedrooms. Staff was friendly and helpful. Valet parking was helpful but a bit expensive. Great walking distance for most downtown attractions. Or room had some strange water issues: toilet wouldn't refill, cold water didn't always come on in the shower or faucet. The windows do not buffer much street noise... single pane perhaps? But it sounded like the window was open (which it wasn't). Other minor things: Kleenex box in the room was empty. No travel cups for the coffee (paper cups).

Split decision: I liked it, he hated it.
Their "touchless" system is weirdly impersonal. A nice young woman met us at the door and showed us to our room. After that, it was like being in a vacant building. If you want help, you just have to call/text. My husband was particularly annoyed by the lack of hospitality. I liked the room. It was clean and very modern. He thought it was a bit sterile. We both agreed that the valet parking system was a disaster. We decided to spend the $35 because they said that we would have unlimited in and out privileges and it was safer than parking in the $5 lot across the street. This turned out not to be true. There was no valet station. You had to text to get someone. If there was no response, you're supposed to call a second number. Both times we tried, there was no response. The car was sitting next to the hotel right where we had left it so we just drove it to dinner. At 8:30 the next morning we got a text saying the car was ready for pickup. We responded that we had not requested the car to be ready, that we would be leaving at 9:30, and to please have the car ready then. There was no valet at 9:30. When she finally showed up, she told us we could pick up the car at the side of the building where we had left it. Since it was raining heavily, we would have preferred to have the car delivered to the front door. But we realized that might not happen for a very long time. So we walked out in the rain and went home.
