La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Madison American Center
Staff was great. The hotel itself needs some updating. My bedroom door would not stay open on its own. The only light in the whole bathroom was the light up mirror, the shower had no lighting and was dark! Both air/heat units in my room were very noisy as well.
