Meh. I had much higher hopes for this property. It seems very outdated. No access to online streaming services. We had to watch cable television with endless commercial commercials. On the plus side, the lady that checked us in and the valet guy was very friendly. I also found the valet prices to be a bit steep.

Such a great place to stay. Location is perfect! Close to the Union, lake, shopping and good eats. Easy walk to the capital. The interior of the hotel has a great cozy feel with so much attention paid to detail. From the coordinating fabrics, carpets and seating to the antique canoes used as lighting, this place is truly a perfect boutique hotel.

Beautiful hotel with great central location.

Super friendly and helpful staff. The place was impeccably clean. The John Hughes movie vibe was cool as well. We'll be back next time we're in Madison
