Milwaukee's Hidden Gem: Unbeatable La Quinta Stay!
Milwaukee's Hidden Gem: Unbeatable La Quinta Stay! - REALLY?! Let's Dive In…
Okay, okay, let's get one thing straight: "Unbeatable La Quinta Stay!"? Big claims, right? My inner skeptic, the one that lives on instant ramen and distrusts ALL capitalized phrases, was totally screaming, "Yeah, right!" But hey, I'm here to be objective (mostly). So, I booked a stay, ready to be underwhelmed. Little did I know… (Dramatic pause for effect).
First Impressions & Accessibility - Or, How I Tripped on a Curb (and Didn't Die)
So, the whole "accessibility" thing. This is IMPORTANT. For starters, La Quinta IS trying. There's an elevator, which is HUGE. They have "Facilities for disabled guests," which is a good sign, but I didn't actually use them, so I can't fully vouch. What I DID notice, which is a good thing, is the parking (Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site]) seemed relatively accessible. No crazy, impossible hills, which is a win in my book.
Now, about the curb… Look, I'm clumsy. Always have been. But it felt like the sidewalk could be a little smoother, or maybe I was just tired. I almost ate concrete but thankfully recovered. Consider this a cautionary tale… but hey, at least the Front desk [24-hour] was there to greet me with a smile and didn't even laugh! (Out loud, at least.)
Cleanliness & Safety - Or, the Joy of Hand Sanitizer (and Not Getting Sick!)
Okay, this is where things get surprisingly shiny. The whole "Anti-viral cleaning products," "Daily disinfection in common areas," and "Rooms sanitized between stays" thing… it felt real. You know how you can sometimes just feel a place is kinda… icky? Not here. I'm a germaphobe at heart, and I actually felt relatively safe. The hand sanitizer (Hand sanitizer) was readily available everywhere, which is always a bonus. They even have Rooms sanitized between stays, AND Staff trained in safety protocol. Seriously, they're taking this seriously. This REALLY boosted my confidence.
The Room - Or, My Comfy Little Fortress
Alright, let's talk digs. The Non-smoking rooms are a MUST for me. The Air conditioning blasted like a dream and the entire room was, I kid you not, clean. Now for, the bits that really matter.
- The Bed: Comfy? Yes. Extra long bed? Bonus. The pillows were fluffy, the sheets were fresh, and I sank in like butter.
- The Bathroom: A total WIN. Separate shower/bathtub? Check. Additional toilet? Check! Good water pressure. Always important. Towels that weren't scratchy. YES!
- The Perks: Free Wi-Fi (duh!), Free bottled water, Coffee/tea maker, and a Refrigerator (essential for late-night snacks). They even had a Blackout curtains which is a GODSEND for sleeping in.
- The Flailing: Look, I am totally that person that always forgets her charger, so the plugs by the bed ( Socket near the bed) totally saved the day.
Dining, Drinking, & Snacking - Or, The Quest for Coffee.
Here’s the thing, I like coffee. A LOT. And the in-room Coffee/tea maker was a lifesaver. I didn’t dig into the Breakfast [buffet] cause the hotel staff was preparing to serve it but it did smell really great! there is also Coffee shop and Restaurants so you have options!
They also had bottle of water which is a nice touch.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax - Or, I Did My Best to Avoid All of It
Okay, I’ll admit it: I'm not a spa person. Or a gym person. I'm a "Netflix and nap" person. They, however, offered: Fitness center, Sauna, and even the Pool with view… I peeked at the pool. It looked nice, but I value my pajama time. I'm guessing these were probably great, but I was too busy enjoying the quiet.
Services & Conveniences - Or, The Stuff That Makes Life Easier (Like, Laundry!)
This is where La Quinta really shines. They have EVERYTHING. Seriously: Daily housekeeping (thank you, angels!), Laundry service (a total lifesaver if you're on a long trip), Dry cleaning, Concierge, and even a Convenience store. They also have Luggage storage which is a huge plus. Cash withdrawal is a godsend.
For the Kids - Or, Bless Their Little Hearts
I don't have kids, BUT if I did, La Quinta seems like a pretty good bet. Family/child friendly is a big check. They have Babysitting service, and from what I saw other families looked happy.
The "Unbeatable" Factor? - The Verdict
Okay, so "Unbeatable"? That's a tough one. It's not the most amazing hotel I've ever stayed in, but for the price point and the location? It's genuinely a great value. The cleanliness, the comfy rooms, the convenient location, and the friendly staff… it all adds up to a really pleasant experience. Now for a bit of reality, the exterior is not winning any design awards, and the decor is pretty generic. But hey, I'm not here to judge a book by its cover (or a hotel by its lobby). I really focused on making sure this was a good hotel, the whole "unbeatable" thing is mostly true.
Here's My Honest Take:
The Good:
- Seriously clean! A HUGE plus.
- Comfy beds. Seriously.
- Convenient location.
- Friendly and helpful staff.
- Good value for the money.
- Lots of amenities.
The Could-Be-Better:
- The exterior isn't exactly Instagram-worthy.
- While the staff was amazing, a few more smiling faces in the hallways wouldn't hurt.
My Final Verdict:
I'd absolutely stay here again.

P.S. Seriously, the beds. I can't stop thinking about the beds.
Escape to Milton Keynes: Cozy 2-Bed Haven in the Heart of the City!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because this isn't your average, sterile itinerary. This is my potential survival guide to a whirlwind stay at the La Quinta Inn & Suites in New Berlin, Wisconsin. My sanity depends on it. Let's see how this goes…
Day 1: Arrival and Immediate Disappointment (aka, "Where's the freaking pool?")
- 1:00 PM: Arrive at Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE). Pray my luggage hasn't decided to vacation in Dubai. Seriously, it's happened. Twice. Also, maybe I shouldn't have worn those "world's okayest traveler" socks. Good start.
- 1:45 PM: Rent a car. I’m picturing a gleaming chariot of freedom… in reality, it’ll probably be a beige sedan with a questionable smell and a tendency to veer slightly left. Prepare to negotiate the car rental gauntlet, which always feels more like a test of endurance than a welcome.
- 2:30 PM: Finally arrive at La Quinta. Find a parking spot (fingers crossed it’s not by a dumpster - I swear I can smell the optimism fading).
- 2:40 PM: Check-in. Smile charmingly at the desk clerk, even if I’m dying inside. Need to secure that upgrade… you know, just in case they have a room with a jacuzzi, a pool, or, dare I dream, a tiny waterfall. Okay, deep breaths. Ask the vital question: "Where's the pool?" Prepare for disappointment. (I'm mentally steeling myself to find out that the pictures were from a different La Quinta.)
- 3:00 PM: Drag my luggage (and my hopes) to the assigned room. Examine the room with the critical eye of a seasoned traveler. Is it clean? Does the AC work? Are the sheets… questionable? (Please, no horror movie sheet scenarios. Please.)
- 3:30 PM: Scope out the hotel amenities. The indoor pool is a must. Then it's time to start my own "La Quinta Pool Olympics." I will win. Or at least splash around a lot. I will judge all the other swimmers. (Let the judgement games begin).
- 4:00 PM: Unpack. Or, more accurately, shove everything into a suitcase and declare "organized chaos." Let's be honest, packing and unpacking is one of the worst parts of any trip.
- 5:00 PM: Wander (Wander! I feel like a hobbit!) around the area. Google Maps is my best friend right now. Find a place for dinner. I'm craving something…comforting. Probably greasy. Because you can't live off of salad all the time. Or can you?
- 6:30 PM: Dinner at a nearby restaurant. Hopefully, one that serves something other than chicken nuggets and disappointment. Consider the ambiance. Is it loud? Quiet? Do they know how to make a decent martini? (Priorities, people! Priorities.)
- 8:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Maybe watch a movie or read. Or, more likely, scroll through Instagram and get envious of people who are actually living their best lives.
- 9:00 PM: Bedtime. Pray for a good night's sleep, free of hotel room noises and existential dread. Also, pray the complimentary breakfast isn't just stale pastries. (And, as an update, please do make sure you check the bed for bed bugs. This is a MUST!).
Day 2: The Pool, the Breakfast, and the Endless To-Do List
- 6:30 AM: Wake up. Sigh. Mornings. The worst. And I'm still not sure what my "happy place" is.
- 7:00 AM: Head down for breakfast. The crucial moment: the continental breakfast. The moment of truth. Are the pastries rock-hard? Is the coffee even potable? Will the waffle maker work? (These are the real questions of life, people). I will fight for those waffles. I will.
- 7:30 AM: Eat my breakfast and sit on my metaphorical throne. I will judge everyone there. And I will be happy.
- 8:00 AM: Hit the pool. Dive in. Seriously, splash around like I'm five years old and no one is watching. (They're watching, I know it. But I don't care.)
- 9:00 AM: Back in the room. Prepare myself. Time to deal with what got me here, otherwise this trip will never end.
- 9:30 AM: Start calling people and making sure that everything is okay.
- 12:00 PM: Lunch at a local place. I'm getting tired of being a tourist.
- 1:00 PM: Start thinking of packing again. The fact that this is happening again is a curse.
- 2:00 PM: Check out.
- 2:30 PM: Drive back to the airport.
- 3:00 PM: Check out.
Inherent Imperfections and Emotional Ramblings (Because Let's Be Real)
This itinerary is, of course, a suggestion. Life happens. Flights get delayed, the waffle maker is broken, and sometimes you just want to eat a whole bag of chips in bed and watch bad reality TV. (No judgement.)
I fully expect moments of abject frustration – trying to find the remote, realizing I forgot my phone charger, the inevitable screaming toddler in the hallway. I also expect moments of pure, unadulterated joy – the perfect cup of coffee, a hilarious encounter with a stranger, the moment I finally realize I'm not completely lost.
The La Quinta experience, in all its messy glory. Wish me luck. And maybe send chocolate.

Milwaukee's Unbeatable (and Secret!) La Quinta: You NEED to Hear This! (Seriously)
Okay, spill the beans! Why is this La Quinta in Milwaukee so "unbeatable"? Don't just say it's clean...
Alright, alright, settle down, I'm getting there! "Unbeatable" might be a *slight* exaggeration (fine, maybe a big one!), but hear me out. This isn't just about a spotless room (though it *was* pretty darn clean, I'll give them that). It's about the *vibe*. Seriously. I stumbled upon this place – it’s like, a secret society meeting of chill. I swear, the staff, the (mostly) fellow guests… everyone just exuded this… *calm*. I've stayed in chain hotels where the lobby felt more tense than a hostage situation. This place? Pure zen. Plus, the breakfast? Glorious, glorious carbs. More on that later...
Where Exactly IS this La Quinta? Don't tell me you're keeping it a secret! Milwaukee is a big city!
Fine, fine! I'll give you the location. You're welcome! I'm talking about the La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Milwaukee Airport. Yes, the airport! I know, I know, you're thinking, "Airport hotel? Blech!" I *thought* the same thing. But trust me, it's a hidden oasis. You can imagine the other side of the airport, with the plane taking off and landing, it's just great, and you don't even have to worry about the noise because they are really good with their soundproofing, it's a good quality hotel.
The breakfast. You mentioned the breakfast. Was it REALLY that good? I'm a breakfast snob.
Oh, the *breakfast*. Okay, so I’m not a food critic. But I *am* a lover of free food, and this… this was elevated free food. They had the usual suspects: waffles (yes!), eggs, sausage, pastries. But it was the *vibe* of the breakfast area that sealed the deal. Maybe it was the friendly chatter, maybe it was the early morning light streaming in, or maybe it was just the sheer joy of not having to cook breakfast myself. Okay, yes, it was probably the waffles. Those things were golden, crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and drowning in syrup. I may have eaten four. Don't judge me! Okay, fine, judge away. I'm happy I did it. No regrets.
What about the rooms? Are they, like, crumbling and outdated? I've had some La Quinta experiences...
Okay, fair question. Look, it's not the Ritz. Let's be clear. But the rooms were surprisingly… nice. Clean. Comfy beds. Adequate space. Not some dingy, soul-crushing box. The kind of place where you can actually *relax* after a long day. I had a weirdly specific experience with a flickering light (which I promptly fixed, I’m basically an electrician now), but the staff were super apologetic and helpful. They offered me a new room! The whole thing was fine. So, no crumbling. Mostly.
Was it noisy? I *hate* noisy hotels. Especially by an airport!
The noise? Surprisingly not bad. Okay, the first night, I *did* hear a distant rumble, like a low-flying… uh… plane. But it was more of a gentle hum, really. And honestly, it added to the "airport adventure" vibe. The soundproofing was actually pretty good, way better than I expected. I slept like a baby. Which is saying something, because I haven't slept like a baby since, well, the actual baby years.
Anything *bad* about the La Quinta? C'mon, nothing's perfect!
Alright, okay, here's a tiny confession: The gym. The gym was… small. Let's just say it was compact. And the equipment looked a little… well-loved. I'm not a gym rat, so it didn't bother me, but if you're a serious fitness fanatic, you might want to skip it and just do some jumping jacks in your room. Also, there are no real dining options! Otherwise, it was a decent choice for a hotel! I'm sure it doesn't hurt that hotels cater to people who have to get to the airport and do early morning departures which can make it a better environment.
Okay, fine, you've almost convinced me. What's the *real* deal? Should I actually stay there?
Look, if you're looking for a luxurious spa getaway, probably not. But if you want a clean, comfortable, surprisingly pleasant place to stay, near the airport, with a fantastic breakfast and a genuinely friendly atmosphere? Absolutely. Seriously. I'm a tough critic. I don't easily give out praise. But this La Quinta? It earned it. Give it a shot. You might just find yourself becoming a La Quinta believer. I already am! I'm checking on my next trip. (Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm suddenly craving waffles…)
How about parking? Was it a nightmare?
Parking? Easy peasy. Plenty of spaces. No circling the block for an hour like some other hotels I've cursed and then ended up parking blocks away. Stress-free parking is a huge win in my book. It's the little things, people!
Anything else I should know? Like, accessibility for getting around to places?
Okay, about getting around: You're close to the airport, so if you need a flight, you're golden! And you're relatively close to other attractions, but you will need a car or ride-sharing services. Transportation is good, but not necessarily "walkable" to fun tourist spots. So, yeah, factor that in.
You said the staff was friendly. Any specific stories?
Oh yeah, there was this one woman, I think her name was Mary? Sweetest lady ever. I had a slight problem with my key card and I was so flustered. She was so kindBest Rest Finder
