Motel 6 Madison, WI - East
Ohh, absolutely, the room was very clean. It's just a great place to bring kids and grandma, you know, and they don't mind that kids get loud. You know, they run up and down the aisles make all kinds of roaring noises and banging. Hi, I'm sure you'll enjoy your visit. Besides, the prices are so reasonable ...
