6/10 Good

The hotel staff are friendly and helpful. The bar and patio were nice. The room decor was whimsical and you can check out records to play in your room. The bed was very comfortable. I would have given it 4 stars is not for the bathroom design. The toilet and shower are in one room with a barn door and right off the bedroom. If you don't close the door, you are staring at the toilet from bed. The sink is around the corner from the bed, between the bedroom and the sitting area. So, there is no privacy will using the sink and you must walk through the bedroom to get to the sink. Not a good design choice.

The room was good. The bed was very comfortable. The vanity could use brighter lights. The room has a noticable musty smell when you first walk in. Might need new carpet and a new corner chair that looked dirty. The location is great with walking distance close to all bars and restaurants downtown Eau Clair
