Great hotel and really friendly and helpful staff. Can be quite noisy, doesn’t seem hugely sound proofed doors/walls or windows but we were very comfortable.

The Madison Hotel which is owned and operated by Marriot advertised and charge us extra for the room as "City View". We checked in into a room at the 10th floor but the room didn't have any view except a tall building on the other side of the street (about 50' away) with a brick exterior. The next morning we woke up before 6am because of a bang bang noise from the above floor. It turned out they have a construction going on without a) disclosing it in any form or shape (online or at the check-in time), b) closing the hotel because of the construction. When we complained about the City View, the manager said: "This is what we call "City View" because you see the next building on the other side of the street. If that's the case, every hotel room is a "City View" room unless the room is in the basement. And regarding the construction noise, they said sorry and said they can downgrade us to level 6 without compensating us for the downgrade. We decided to go to level 6 to avoid all-day long construction noise.

The property was well kept. Staff were pleasant. We stayed in a Junior Suite with “city view”. This is my only complaint, there was no city view. We faced another building and the vent units. When I called about it, I was told this view was considered to be the “city view”. It wasn’t a deal breaker since we had no intentions of being in the room much. The room was nice and the shower/tub was spacious with good water pressure. They do offer dining. Food was ok. There is no mini fridge nor microwave in the room. Location was within a mile walk to most restaurants downtown, however a good distance from most monuments. But still walkable if you’re active, we walked it. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would most definitely stay again.

Don’t Judge by color
The hotel was nice clean fast check in only had a problem when it was breakfast time. Racist profile just because we don’t have on business attire doesn’t mean we don’t belong in the hotel. The kitchen staff shouldn’t have did that if they know you can’t get a take away box only if the staff give it to you
