Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Bed was very comfy and vibe overall was good! Staff were wonderful. However, the room was very outdated and smelled of mildew and urine heavily during the stay. I also felt uncomfortable closing the bathroom door the entire way because there was a dark liquid stain that began at the top of the door and ran to the floor. I wanted to love this place because it was so cute, the staff were absolutely wonderful, and the location was great. But I was very worried about the overall cleanliness.

Cute, artsy hotel, in the heart of Eau Claire’s downtown. Right across the street from the best ice cream in town, and walking distance to beautiful Phoenix Park, bars, and dining options.
