Reasonable

In the main it was a good stay with clean and adequate facilities. It is dog friendly & relatively quiet though we could hear the alarm in the room nextdoor as if it were ours. There are several restaurants and parks within walking distance and you can rent a bike and access the wonderful trail system. Negatives: gambling machines in lobby, spotty hot water, terrible coffee, meh breakfast, unwelcoming check-in person.

Meh, OK, Not Great, and a Bit Overpriced

The room was fine, although not worth what we paid, in my opinion, and some electrical sockets didn't seem to work. They sure didn't spend much of what we paid them on air conditioning for the hot common areas or for breakfast -- this place had the most modest (skimpy) breakfast buffet I have ever seen. For instance, one container of coffee -- no decaf -- and small cups, maybe so we wouldn't take too much? Some guy was wandering around the room talking loudly on his phone, and I found out he was their staff member in charge of breakfast when he started wandering to each table to tell us he was closing soon and we'd need to finish up soon. Speaking of staff, check-in was also the longest check-in I think I've ever had. Altogether not a terribly place or stay, but not very professional and definitely overpriced.

Good rooms, sub par breakfast, pricy

It was a nice enough place, roomy and comfortable beds, clean and plenty of free parking in a safe area. For the price though breakfast was pretty weak.

It was nice to have a mini kitchen, although I didn't stay there very long, it was nice to have a full size refrigerator. The TV was very small, and had 25 dots on the screen, had to have it changed out. the replacement had 2 white dots on the screen. difficult to view the tv as it was.

Nice room

The beds were comfortable but very high. I was here for one night only, but the room does have a full sized fridge and small functional kitchen. The breakfast was fine but not great - waffle machines, scrambled eggs, sausage, cereal, bread, fruit and yogurt. Check in and out was efficient. It's a short drive to Madison, but there's also a bus stop across the street from the hotel.
