Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We had rooms 101, 102, 103 for a wedding we had to attend. I guess the bed in 101 leaned pretty bad on one side. Room 102 bed was a little squeaky when trying to roll over. Room 103 seemed a little run down. However, the workers were very friendly and check in was extremely easy. Breakfast was decent for the price of the rooms. Would recommend for an inexpensive hotel if needed.

The place and rooms look nothing like the pictures. I paid for a room with a jetted tub. It was old and didn't work. The front desk person told me someone will come out tomorrow and fix it. That didn't work for me because I only booked for one day. I requested a refund and was denied. I will still request a refund.

I went for an event at the raceway. This is a great location for that purpose. It was basically just a place to sleep as the event ended at midnight. The breakfast was your basic continental. Eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, muffins and a couple cereals. It’s all I needed as I was jumping back on the road in the morning. I’ll stay here again next year when the Import Face Off comes back to Madison.

Dingy and uncomfortable

Our room was ill-equipped with threadbare towels, no wash cloths, bath mat nor body wash. This is the only time ive stayed in a hotel that did not have an iron. The bed was creaky and uncomfortable with three super thin pillows provided on the king bed. I still don't understand how this hotel has good reviews.
