This is a place we plan to come back and enjoy again on our next trip to Madison.
Pros:

Lots of space for relaxing and manuvering around baggage to get comfortable. Nice to have snacks as complimentary near front desk. The breakfast was more complete than other motels. The furniture was comfortable as well.

Away from the crowds and the traffic. Very peaceful.
Pros:

The staff is always friendly and helpful. I enjoy staying here very much. The beds are very comfortable and the linens are top notch. I always enjoy slipping into bed in this hotel. I always stay in a King Suite because the space and the access to a kitchen is great, when I need it. I don't use the fitness center but they do have one, as well as a game room and a pool that is older kid friendly.

Cons:

I park in the back parking lot and I had to drag my suitcase through 2-3 inches of snow because the back parking lot was not plowed. There had been a snow storm but the other side of the hotel had been plowed.

Amenities galore, kids loved it! Balcony and kitchenette was wonderful
Pros:

It had everything! Cool pool with basketball hoops and a dump bucket. Gym, arcade, full spread for breakfast. Our room had a pull out couch so our boys didn’t have to share a bed which was great.

Cons:

The location of it was a little odd to get to, but otherwise it was all awesome.

It got the job done
Pros:

The room was clean. Staff was friendly

Cons:

Unfortunately I had to be out of the facility before 7am both Saturday and Sunday so I missed the breakfast. Starting the breakfast at 6am on the weekend would have nice. Also the lamp between the beds did not work. It was not the bulbs but the outlet and that was not fixed although i brought it up to the staff. No fan in the bathroom is not great.
