Great location, quiet and close to downtown. Very easy to get to the dells and Madison. A lot of good restaurants close by. Very friendly and helpful staff! Breakfast options were limited but all fresh and delicious. Quality over quantity was appreciated. The pool looked very nice. Would definitely stay here again!

A $30 early check-in fee for an hour & 1/2 earlier was ridiculous. I was attending a wedding & which started at 2:30 and the shuttle from the hotel was set to leave by 1:30 to make it to the venue for the ceremony. Also, the bathroom floor was sticky in my room.

The hotel advertises a heated pool. No it is not. I checked in with my luggage and was told that my room was # 202. I asked ok, where is the elevator. No elevator. They expected me to drag my luggage up 2 flights of stairs. I was given a handicap room. Luckly I was not in a wheelchair. No handicap access to shower. No ice machines in building, but yet an ice bucket in room and vending machines were broken too.Stay away!

Quiet, clean, and friendly staff= Grand Stay

We’re choose this hotel because we wanted to walk to a brewery. This hotel was excellent. It was very quiet, clean, and the staff was very nice. It was an easy walk to Octopi Brewery, which has great food and drinks.

Good hotel for the price; No Elevator

Overall the hotel is good for the price. There was no elevator on property and our room was on the second floor. The breakfast was rather disappointing; options provided were cereal, bagels/donuts, waffles and yogurt. The juice dispensing machine was off (or broken...not sure) so there were bottles of juice that we could pour from. Breakfast really did lack an overall protein and so we were hungry within just a mere couple of hours.

Clean the mirrors!

After i showered i noticed there was writing on the mirror. Like someone wrote on it with their finger when it was steamed up. So clearly it was not cleaned from the last stay! The bathroom door was so hard to close and open. It could definitely use some fixing up and I've never been to a Hotel that didn't have an elevator. But it smelled clean and overall the rest was clean.
