Top Madison Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Madison American Center

8/10 Good

"Room with separate sitting room and two tv’s, microwave and desk was good for the price. Clean, but hotel is older and somewhat dirty and outdated. Was good for an overnight stop off based on the price."

"Room was nice and clean. No issues!"

10/10 Excellent
