The room was super spacious and clean! The front desk staff was fantastic and the location was great. The fitness center had a peloton amongst other equipment, which was a nice surprise! The kids loved the pool and they reported that the continental breakfast was excellent :)

Great hospitality!
We were in town to see the UW vs Oregon game and really enjoyed taking the shuttle to and from the game! Everything about the hotel was accommodating from the very friendly staff and the amazing Manager, Sandy who had lots of great recommendations for things to do in the area. Thank you Sandy and staff for helping to make our first trip to Madison a memorable one!

Staff was excellent for our entire stay. Offered help with a shuttle to our event and dining options. Shuttle driver was friendly, efficient and fun. Checkin and checkout was efficient and helpful. The room was excellent and the outdoor areas were so pleasant. I know when we come back to Madison the next time, we will certainly be staying here again.

This is hands down probably the best hotel experience I’ve ever had and one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. The staff is phenomenal and so friendly. The shuttle was a life saver for game day.

The hotel was wonderful, but what it made it extra special was the great attention we received from the staff at the front desk. Christopher was especially fantastic!
