Pros:

We loved everything! The staff was super friendly and helpful, the location was beautiful on the river, the room and the grounds were really cool with the New Orleans vibe. The golf cart rides to and from main Street was a surprise and such a convenient treat! We also really enjoyed the entertainment on Saturday night! We will definitely book this place again. This was our first trip to Madison, and we will come back! Thank you!

Cons:

We had nothing to complain about.

Staff is very kind and down to earth which I swear is super rare anymore!
Pros:

We stayed here for the unbroken circle music festival. The location was very convenient and it was awesome that they dropped you off and picked you up with the golf carts.!!

Cons:

There wasn’t anything I didn’t like about the property. The room was pretty small, but it was perfect for me and my sister and it has the room sizes available whenever you book so it’s not a surprise.

Could have been worse, could have been significantly cleaner.
Pros:

I like the location and thought the building itself (French Quarters) was beautiful. Well done aesthetic and beautiful view of Madison IN. The staff were super friendly and helpful and we loved the trolley service they had! Excellent customer service

Cons:

We had a ground level room at the French Quarters part of the property, it smelled very musty. It kind of felt like a musty basement. The smell improved when we turned on the A/C unit, unfortunately we did find a cockroach. It was alive on the bathroom floor later that night and made us feel really grossed out, kind of hard to fall asleep after that.

Cozy, French Artistry charming stay.
Pros:

I loved the art work at French Quarters where we stayed. Very nice quaint added touch!

Cons:

The shower head needed replacing & only had 2 towels in our room had to ask for more. I use 2 myself when I wash my hair. Plus there was no ice maker. Had to get it from the main Inn. A pair in tge room would have been nice to put your shoes on.
