I recently stayed at the historic Hotel Ruby Marie for a night while on business in Madison and there's not enough positive adjectives to describe how great my stay was. Upon my arrival I was greeted with cookies and a smile. My room had all the comfort of a modern hotel with the charm of a 19th century Victorian inn. It was an unreasonably cold night for spring but my room was warm and comfy. Also, I had a beautiful view of the lake. There's also on sight parking which makes life easy. I cannot wait to get back to Madison for an extended stay at the Ruby Marie. Cheers!
