My friends and I loved the vallet parking, the happy hour 2 free drinks from 5:30 to 7:00. Most hotels have happy hour 4:30-5:30…which is too early. The room was very clean and accommodated to my handicap with the walk-in shower.

The hotel was clean and spacious. The lobby was really nice and welcoming. The rooms were large with a very spacious bathroom. Amenities included fridge, microwave, writing desk, wifi, USB charging points, decent wardrobe, hair dryer etc. Beds were comfortable. Front desk staff were always friendly and personable. Breakfast was adequate. It is located near a large target and other shops in the area. The main mode of transport is taxi or your own private self drive car. Overall - a comfortable, spacious hotel in a nice locality.

I love the location and the easy check in. We had one night stay and the room was really good. It had all basic amenities. It's a new property and so the facilities are top notch. The breakfast was basic but no complaints. They had 24hrs fruits and coffee available. If given a chance, I would love to stay again 😊 It's pet friendly too!

    Room was very clean and spacious and had all facilities. The bed was very comfortable. The room had facilities to allow modern cables to directly plug in. The breakfast gave a lot of choice and used reusable cutlery and plates / dishes. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Location near the centre of downtown Madison was excellent. The happy hour scheme at the bar was brilliant - and the food was very tasty and reasonably priced.
