About this property

Best Downtown Location, Long-Term Stays Welcome!

Welcome to the Love Shack! This basement unit was completely gut-rehabbed down to the studs and transformed into a chic, modern space. Enjoy a stylish experience at this centrally-located place.

This boutique property is ideally located steps away from the trendiest restaurants and bars, coffee shops, Lake Michigan beaches, Brady Street, hospitals, North Avenue, downtown, the Oak Leaf Trail, biking, hiking, the river walk, Public Market and other grocery stores, Summerfest, and the all-new Bucks arena/Fiserv Forum. Milwaukee is known as “Brew City” for a reason, and we have two well-known breweries just a few blocks away - Eagle Park Brewery and Lakefront.

You will find this place is ideal for traveling nurses, vacationers, families, reunions, and business travelers.

After coming home from a tough day at the beach or eating your way through the many award-winning restaurants trying to figure out your favorite cheese curd, you will find free, blazing fast WiFi, central air conditioning and heat, and two Smart TVs with your favorite apps (cable not included) - feel free to use these services with your own login and enjoy!

Kitchen/Dining:
Put your chef hat on and find yourself showing off your cooking skills on the range in the kitchen that is fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, glasses, utensils, toaster, blender, and a Keurig K-Duo Single Serve coffee maker. Or gather your friends around the full-sized kitchen and put your mixology skills to the test to serve up some classic Wisconsin Old Fashioned cocktails. A stackable washer and dryer along with detergent is also conveniently located in this space.

Living Room:
For a rainy day or just a cozy night in, relax in the elegant living room well-appointed with a 55 inch Smart TV and games to keep the entertainment going.
*Queen living room sofa bed available to sleep two additional people in the living room

Bedroom:
Queen bed, dresser, TV, full-length mirror, luggage rack, and closet

Bathroom:
Complete with a stand-up shower, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, toilet paper, and hair dryer.

Outdoor:
A shared grill is available to use on the concrete slab behind the house.
*Please be aware the outdoor grill and space is shared amongst the tenants at the property.
*This outdoor grilling space is only to be used during non-Milwaukee quiet hours from 7am to 9pm

You will have the entire basement unit to yourself beginning at 4pm. The entrance is through the side door. You will be provided a code the day before arrival. The host and co-host will be available for help most of the time between 9am and 6pm. We do not have a 24 hour service, but we do our best to help with any accommodations for your entire stay. As a reminder, we are not a full service hotel. We are providing our space for the month and some essentials to make your stay better.

At this time, there is only street parking available, but it is free to park for up to three nights. More specific instructions will be provided prior to arrival. Keep in mind this is shared building and patio with other tenants so be mindful and respectful in regards to noise levels. Parties or loud music will NOT be tolerated. Due to neighboring families, the patio may only be used from 7am-9pm. Additional rules and regulations for the patio and quiet hours will be provided upon arrival. There are exterior surveillance cameras located around the property. While we want to ensure you have a wonderful experience, we have better things to do than spend our time spying on our guests - the cameras are more for safety reasons.

Early check-in/check-out will be accommodated as reservations allow. Please check with host prior to arrival to discuss this possibility.

Liked: Location
Disliked: Check-in, communication

Pros and Cons: Improvements needed but I made it work

Cons • Check in was not smooth 1. Hosts were friendlier during correspondence leading up to booking. Unfortunately, once I arrived, mistakenly went to the wrong door and apparently had too many questions, the tone changed and they recommended I go to a hotel 2. No/missing kettle for tea although tea bags are provided -they said none is advertised yet also said one should be in the unit.. huh?? 3. There were large spiders; the host indicated they’re not responsible for “the nature” • Although you start on VRBO, you’re routed to their rental site to complete a rental agreement • You can hear footsteps from above unit • The occupant in the main house upstairs is related to the property manager/host -privacy concern • ‘Landing’ area by the entrance door tight and tiny before a steep staircase • Vacuuming upstairs occurred after 8:30pm • Some hygiene improvements needed: cotton buds and floss in an open basket; body wash, shampoo, conditioner are in refilled, not sealed/new containers; no terry bathmat is provided • Had to rinse & sanitize utensil tray • Low ceilings & darker (than expected) inside • Toilet roll handle kept coming off • Water takes about 2min to get hot & pressure changes if multiple pipes on simultaneously *Too many tasks required for checkout* Pros • The location is awesome -from a 5min walk to supermarket to under 30min to the sights; free streetcar, lakefront 20min • The bed/pillows were comfortable • Starter detergent • Well-appointed kitchen *Cute decor*
