Wow, 5 stars? Did we stay at the same hotel? This location is the newer version where the room entrances are enclosed which is a plus. They've also had their renovation in the lobby with the high counter/seating area. But my room smelled like stale smoke and the desk was really small.
So while the staff was super friendly and the location is actually more convenient to where I needed to be in Madison, on my return trip I opted to stay in the HGI in Middleton than endure another week in this less than acceptable Hampton.
