A basic hotel with good areas to walk pets. A few restaurants are within walking distance. Easy on and off the highway. We have stayed a few times on our cross country trips.
Location was good. Strong cigarette odor in room. Sheets had multiple stains on them. Cigarette holes in sheets and mattresses. Condoms under the bed. AC was good. Many people just loitering around the building.
The staff are super nice. The rooms are decent. The only thing I don't like is that they don't have continental breakfast but I understand why they don't an I don't blame them. But other than that I would come back and stay a night or two.
i regularly stay at the RedRoof in Madison. the office is always attended with helpful staff and provide everything i need. i always recommend the RedRoof to family and friends staying in Madison
You don't get much when you stay at a cheap hotel. Nevertheless this was satisfactory and good value for money. Located within easy walking distance of a restaurant.

Great sevice and value, need a few repairs.
Staff was friendly and very kind. While the room was clean.
Some repairs could benefit the place. Large hole in bed spread. Light switch was finicky. Some damage to the walls.
Great customer service. Bed very comfortable. Plumbing and appliances worked great. After a melt the grounds needed cleaning. Room had wall repairs that had not been painted, but it was well worth the motel fee. Pet friendly is very important but it is apparent some people don't clean up after their dogs.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
terrible attention, from 10 in the morning bothering us to check out, terrible attention from the employees
Spent the night on our way through Madison- 1st room smelled horribly of urine-- went back and asked for another room-- front desk was cordial and apologetic-- she gave us a different toom which smelled much better, however wall had numerous areas of chipped paint and lots of flies!
This is a hotel that is a good example of you get what you pay for.
Was also somewhat concerning when there was w business card stuck in the door from Wi Parole and Probation!!

Room was suppose to be SMOKE FREE but as soon as we opened the door - the smell of smoke was overwhelming. I couldn’t do any deep breathing because it stunk so much. The bedsheet was dirty and felt “gritty”. We checked in at 2am and had to get up at 6am so we just made do with the room. Check in process was quick and staff was polite but I don’t believe that we will be staying at this place if we ever come through again.

Not the Red Roof Inn you’re accustomed too.
I thought it was priced rather high for the type of hotel it is. In a dodgy area of Maddison. The reception has a large pistol strapped to his hip. A bit odd to see as a Canadian.
Plenty of disadvantaged multi family groups living in the hotel.
Three times through the night, people came and loudly knocked on our door. Thankfully, the office has perhaps 50 cameras watching the area so reception could tell it was kids playing when I called down to complain. On the 3rd time, he came up and took the kids back to their parent’s.
Bed was comfy and for a quick one night stop…it isn’t too bad.
The nightly rate was what got me to book. You get what you pay for, so I wasn’t expecting much. The staff was friendly. The rooms were very noisy because you could hear every time the other lodgers were outside whether walking but or hanging outside. The king size bed was placed right by the door which made it worse. Towels were very small and you only got two sets as there is no housekeeping during your stay. If you want a refresh, you have to hunt down the housekeeper while they are there cleaning the rooms that are vacated that day. Front desk does not help getting you fresh towels. I just bought a few towels at Walmart. It was easier
The floor in our room was dirty and sticky, it turned our socks black. The plug in to the hair dryer was cracked open and not safe to plug in. The phone had no cords to plug it in. Headboard was cracked and missing wood pieces. Smoke detector was ripped off the wall and wires sticking out. There was a receipt on the night stand for the last guy that stayed there. I took several photos and tried to talk to the employee about it when checking out. He told me i was okay to go. I don't think he understood me.
The staff that checked us in was nice and friendly. We needed a place to stay last minute after spending the day in Madison with my daughter and baby granddaughter, as we were too tired for the 2 hour drive home. Very disappointing stay.
