Cold hot tub
Our accommodations were good. Nice room and accurate description. I was really disappointed with the hot tubs. The outdoor hot tub was not very clean and the indoor one was COLD. I talked to the desk about this TWICE and nothing changed for the whole time we were there—5 days! Unacceptable.

Good service and quick repair
Our experience at Madden's over the Memorial Day weekend was pretty good, except that the sink in the bathroom was clogged when we used it in the evening. We called Customer Service that night and told staff about the problem. It was fixed pretty soon. So we're happy.

Old and smelly
Rooms are outdated and noisy. There was a strong sewer gas odor that came from the bathroom the entire stay. Upon further research, this seems to be a common issue with other guests
