I had a great stay here! It’s super central to downtown Racine and close to lots of shops. The property itself was very clean and had all the amenities you could need and more! Parking is the only thing I would prepare for to pay overnight. Would highly recommend staying here.

Great weekend trip!

Property was great. Was a very cozy layout and was walking distance to a lot of places to eat, explore and go out for drinks. Everything was very clean and was a perfect layout for my wife and I.

Lovely spot in the middle of downtown Racine

Just what I wanted, a nice, clean, cozy place to stay during a downtown Racine winter event over a weekend. Nice and private and perfect for two people.

The stairs are extremely steep, so if mobility is at all an issue this is not the spot for you. The place itself was as advertised and worked perfectly for us. You can even see the lake from the window.

Great property

Great property, close to the waterfront and right in the heart of downtown. Good restraunts nearby! Much quieter than staying in downtown MKE and a 40 min drive to do the things we wanted to do in MKE.
