Clean room, comfortable bed, lobby coffee and hot tea. I wasn't expecting breakfast and was surprised it had a waffle iron, hot food like biscuits and gravy and eggs. All at a very reasonable price. Will stay here again!
To start out there was a bit of a gap in communication, but was resolved in a timely manner and with much appreciation. This hotel is a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ example of how a good business is run. Thank you to all who was involved in making our stay an excellent! Sincerely, Room #108
Clean rooms and bathrooms. Pleasant staff. Clean pool, which is open 6:30am-11pm. Pet friendly. Free breakfast, which was no-frills but did the job. On the cheaper end. AC/Heat controls in the room work well. Kids were happy, dog was happy, and we got good rest. Great value for the price.
Great place to stay on long road trips. The rooms are clean and don't have that smoke/weed smell so many others have. Typical breakfast fair with eggs, hash browns, sausage and waffle maker. Great location to find food and easy access to highways to get back on the road. Will definitely visit again.
Very nice and quiet hotel, a huge jetted tub(pictured) that comfortably fit 450lbs total(I'm 330 of that). The bed was a lot better than we expected. The included breakfast was great and has MYO waffle.
Very friendly staff. I arrived just before midnight after a Samantha Fish concert in DT Madison..Please check this Rockin" Blues artist on YouTube. My room was reserved and the night clerk was friendly. The room and bathroom was impeccably clean and very spacious.We really appreciate the rooms that are non-smoking thus there was no cigarette odor . Always a plus. .There is a wide selection of channels on the tv..Check out the Music choice channels that are ad - free. The heating unit worked very well and had " white noise ". Just wish they had left some breakfast in the dining room after 10 am. Many hotels do that. The pool was alright and is open until 11 pm CST. No lifeguards. Close to the interstate and plenty of parking. The parking lot was plowed since 3 to 5 inches blanketed the area overnight . I will return if in the Madison area and need a Wyndham motel to stay.
Very friendly staff. Rooms were clean. Breakfast is good. Wifi actually runs fast and is acceptable. And you can use rewards to get free nights. All together not a bad hotel at all.
It was very clean. Staff was very friendly. The mattresses in the queen double were shot. You can see exactly where the previous guests have slept. It was sunken in. Management needs to replace them. One bed was older than the other. The location was off of a service road. Room 112
