DoubleTree by Hilton Madison East
It was expensive because of the graduation prices, but it was still the most affordable option while still offering a healthy environment for me and my pet. The bar had excellent service, and the mac and cheese at the restaurant was the best I had ever had.

Prepare for lake flies/gnats! Could not open our window because there wasn’t a screen. Not sure if it was just the time of year (mid May).
