The room was gorgeously put together. The whirlpool tub was clean and functioned properly. The balcony viee was nice, but the door leading out to it was broken off of the slider and bent so it couldn't be put back on. The bed was really nice and comfortable. The bathroom was clean, functioning correctly, and had an abundance of extra helpful supplies.

The room was lovely, comfortable, clean, and a pretty view of the Ohio River. The breakfast was unsatisfactory! When the eggs and bacon ran out twice, they were not replaced in a timely manner and people had to wait for them to be refilled twice in a 30 minute period even though there were only about a dozen and a half people in the dining room.

Very nice hotel on a hillside overlooking Madison. My room had a balcony. I wish I’d had more time to hang out on it. Breakfast was pretty standard but fine. Room was huge and clean. There is a bit of truck noise from the road heading over the bridge. Nicest hotel I’ve stayed at I awhile.

The balcony view was great. Beds were comfortable. Room was very clean. Would have loved to have more time to see Madison as looked liked a great place to shop, eat and relax. The riverfont looked so inviting and the architecture would have been so much fun to explore. Going to ry and make it back there and spend some time.

We paid extra for a balcony room because the whole premise of this hotel is hilltop views. Our “view” was of trees right outside the balcony, we asked to switch rooms but that request wasn’t granted. We felt like we did not get what we paid for or expected.
