Such a jewel. We love the town of Madison and this hotel is a wonderful place to stay. The staff is amazing. The hotel is very clean and comfortable. It was really nice the pool was still open and clean. It is very convenient to shops, restaurants and the river. They have a shuttle that takes whatever you want and picks you up.

The staff was great… it was very very clean… View was incredible if you can get a Riverview… Make sure you know what building you are going to be put in. There’s the main one with the bar where all the action is and then there’s one close by that is also theirs, but they show you back-and-forth in a golf cart if you want. We had entertainment on the weekend and the breakfast was certainly sufficient.

Would definitely stay again

It was a very clean room and restroom. We found it to be very damp in the room. The sheets and comforter on the bed were very damp. The location and views from the hotel were beautiful.

The furnished patio is not private! You share it with every single room on the 2nd floor. it is not stated in description. Our neighbors took over everything and then decided to sit right outside our door at 715am talking loudly. The hotel itself is good but no privacy was had!!
