I'm here right now...this room seems to be the same size and design as the converted ones...I wonder if they have different room sizes here?

Bars...in Madison?
I was not told of any parking charge...

Tamika checked me in as well...she was very thorough, and VERY friendly!^
quote=frekwentflier]The pool looked pretty small, but we didn't have time to try it. No hot tub like some other HPs I've stayed at.
Breakfast was typical HP. I sure wish they'd add a waffle maker to it.
But there was never a shortage of anything, which is nice.
I had some hassle getting my car out of the garage as I didn't have my room key, but there's a speaker to the front desk and they let me out. Just an FYI in case it happens to anybody else.
Overall I was very pleased with my stay and would definitely stay again![/QUOTE]
I'm pleased so far...we'll see how it goes in the morning!
