I had to stay here as my flight out of Madison was canceled. There is no getting around how run down the place is. The hallways are dark and musty. I got the vibe that some Dateline murder mystery was filmed there at some point.
Aside from that, it was pretty great. The room and bathroom were clean. I had a humongous king size bed that was comfortable. The AC works wonderfully. WiFi is free and decent. The room even had a fridge for personal use. If you don't have a car, there are options for places to eat within walking distance. If not, get a cab and go downtown.
