If all you need is a place to sleep and cleanup, there are several Super 8's in the Milwaukee area. They are pretty resaonable. Nothing fancy, continental breakfast, clean rooms. Stay is West Allis last month, nice room, secure, no complaints.

Group I was with didn't want to spend much so we stayed at the econo lodge close to the airport. It wasn't bad for $50 a night. The bed was clean and that's all I needed.

Only complaint is rode construction going in so had to watch the gravel.
This was just last week.

Super 8 at the airport is very clean and nice. Reasonably priced. Just returned from there. 6 miles from museum.

Just got back and stayed at the Intercontinental downtown. Nice place...but no doubt more $$$ than Super 8.

For the full Milwaukee experience stay at the Iron Horse hotel. Blocks from the museum. Or, if you don't stay there, at least go there for some food or drinks.
