Great stay in downtown Madison!
Pros:

Very comfortable hotel in a perfect location for our weekend in Madison. The hotel arranged a free cab ride for us from the airport since the shuttle was not running, so that was a great first impression! Everything was nice, love the thick carpet in the hallways, and fast elevators. The fitness center was also super nice.

Cons:

The in-room coffee was pretty bad.
