Great view off balcony. Limited extras: no pool, restaurant gym. Outdated. Level C grade redo. Wife liked it better. Good location at end of Main St. Close to Ohio River and the mid 1800 downtown business and residential building. Fun shopping in area. Friend.

Clean room-nice view-needs updates
Beautiful view from the balcony of our room. The hotel is old, the room was musty, turning the ac down and opening the sliding door helped some, screen to door was torn across the bottom. Furnishing old but functional. Room and bathroom very clean with plenty of towels. Breakfast ok for free but much better choices in community at coffee shops, bakeries and restaurants. The driveway up into the hotel is steep and hazardous but understandable with the location. This could be a special place due to the view and the history-but refreshing, and updating-just painting the exterior and fixing the screens would be a good start.

Made a last minute reservation for a little R&R after a horrible couple of weeks back home. Front desk lady was so friendly and informative. Room is kind of small, yet, large enough. I’m here to sleep not run around the room. Balcony had a nice view of historic Madison. It’s an older hotel and it shows, but, it’s still nice and very comfortable. Will definitely stay again. Had a great stay!

Just right
What a wonderful experience. Upon checking in, the woman at the front desk was so nice and personable and offered great advice as to where to eat. The room was very comfortable and clean and the bed and pillows were great. Perfect location in the city and what a view!

A unique stay away from the chain-hotels
This is a historic hotel, perched above lovely Madison. The hotel exterior has a retro look (the current building was built in 1970 after the previous hotel structure burned down). In some ways, the hotel shows its age, but it is well-kept and clean and the charm of the place with its balcony views of the river and Madison won us over. We would stay there again.
