This is the worst hotel ever. I stayed there for only two nights for a conference and both nights I will walk the streets till I was ready for bed. I read several reviews about the hotel a day before my trip but at that moment that was the only reasonably priced hotel near the school. I took my personal... more

The good: Right on corner of State St.; close to main campus area; walking distance to bars and shops. Free Interenet; Free Parking The bad: Very loud. If you are looking for a quiet place to say, this isn't it. Because of being so close to State St. and all the bars, this is the party hotel. Don't expect to... more

The hotel is in walking distance for everything on campus: shows, stores, campus, trails, lakes, etc. It is also a relatively inexpensive hotel. We were there on a very busy weekend and luckily nabbed... more

This is not a hotel for everyone. If you're looking for somewhere to stay for the night and is centrally located, this is a great place for you. Its centrally located and in walking distance to just about everything in downtown Madison. Additionally, it offers some nice perks such as free internet, continental breakfast, and free parking. Its certainly the... more

The good news is that it's a fun location. Right on State Street, in the middle of the action. And under a hundred dollars is not bad. It was very convenient, and we really did not have a noise problem--some in the halls, but not bad. Bad news--its the poster child for deferred maintenance and inattention. Our room had no... more

I stayed at University Inn for two nights duing the Madison Folk Ball, March 3-5, 2006. The rate was about $20 more per night than last year. I had a malfunctioning phone (it was not fixed), a bathroom sink that would not drain (not fixed), and a 6-pack of empty beer bottles in the closet (they were removed). No offer... more
