There was only air conditioning and no heat option. Weather was not hot enough for air and night time could have used heat. Was not an option. Front desk staff in general was friendly. We stayed in Royal Tower. One particular front desk staff was rude and not friendly. Overall stay was okay

Nice updates, but it needs work

They did nice updates. The lobby looks really nice and smells really good. Rooms are nice decorated. The pools and outside areas are also nice and welcoming. So yes, decoration and outside was good, however there is room for improvement: 1- the staff could use some customer service training, especially at the vinyl cafe. I was charged over $9 for a basic iced coffee that took some time be done when no other customers were at the cafe.. sorry that is more than prices in the city, I should have complained, but did not. It seems they weren’t sure of the price and just rang that amount. 2- pool at ocean tower is not heated. 3- cleanliness in the room needs to be improved - my son went to get a toy under the bed and came back covered in dog hair on his pajamas. 4- keurig in room needs to be maintained, it wasn’t working properly. 5- needs sheer blinds.. you either get full darkness or 0 privacy.

The two Madison hotels are spaced basically next to each other and apparently we were housed in the one that needs just a little updating. We only had a one night stay for a special occasion. The room was clean and comfortable. The view was terrific and the pools looked very nice. Self parking was a plus.

I’d put a pin in it to come back

The room was clean and very cute with the retro decor. The WiFi kept going out on the tv the first night so I did have to watch tv from my phone. I wanted a late check out but they charge $50-$100 which was a turn off. There is no continental breakfast and it felt a little nickle and dimed for everything since I have to order in but what can I say, it is a tourist town. Overall my stay was great and the ocean view did it for me. I would stay again.

Love the retro theme decor and close proximity to the beach. Unfortunately, walls paper thin. Guests next door were very loud. Could also hear children running outside door and loud stomping until late at night.
