I came after driving 14.5 hours, the lady at the front desk was RUDE!!! The beds and pillows were uncomfortable. The room had a weird smell. If I hadn’t booked for the week I would have changed hotels.

The Madison Concourse Hotel and Governor's Club
Nice location - quiet rooms. Convenient Starbucks inside the hotel. Only issue is the person who checked us in was a bit cranky - not welcoming at all.
