We look forward to hosting you in our 111-year-old home in the lovely and diverse Washington Heights neighborhood. We welcome you and want you to feel at home with us. The space Our home is ideally located, just two minutes from I-94 . . . turn left to Chicago, turn right to Minneapolis. Better yet, stay right here and enjoy Milwaukee! Ten minutes east is downtown Milwaukee where most of the cultural, artistic, and sports venues are located. Not to mention great restaurants and beautiful Lake Michigan. To the south visit Miller Park, home of the Milwaukee Brewers, one of the largest stadiums in the country. (Walkable if you park a few blocks south of our house.) Just ten minutes west is the Milwaukee Regional Medical Center, comprising six health care institutions including Milwaukee Children’s Hospital, Froedtert Hospital, and the Medical College of Wisconsin. We are about an 8-minute drive to the VA Hospital. Closer to home, you will find several restaurants with a variety of cuisines. Guest access In addition to your own room, you will have access to the living room, dining room, bathroom (for all guests), front porch, back yard, and deck. You will share the kitchen with your hosts, Elizabeth and Ben, who resides upstairs. If there are guests in either or both of the other two rooms we offer, they will also have access to the kitchen. So you may run into them or us there. When parents bring children under eight-years-old, the only option available in our home is the ““Three Bedrooms in Washington Heights .” This policy insures that there will be no guests in other rooms who might be disturbed by the normal activity of small children. For a child older than eight, s/he must either sleep in a bed with ONE parent or have a separate room booked. Please keep in mind that ours is not a “child-proofed” house so constant supervision of little ones is required. During your stay We will be available to our guests, always respecting their privacy. Other things to note We do not allow pets. Street parking is free for the first three nights and on Friday and Saturday. After that, $1 per day or $5 weekly. However, if your car is average size (no vans or trucks) you may be able to use the garage. N.B. Every other Thursday is cleaning day from 11:45 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. If you are staying through a Thursday morning and would find the noise of a vacuum and the hustle and bustle of housekeeping disturbing, you might prefer to book with another of the many Airbnb options in Washington Heights. Better yet, go out for breakfast to one of the great restaurants in the area!
