I will start off with the one positive about the place: it is in a great location. Now for the rest of it: -the house is old and not well maintained, so there is a lot of dust and dander and feels very run down - the house is very hot in the summer. They do have some window air... More

I really wish I had consulted trip advisor before making a reservation at this hotel, because it really was more like a (poorly run) boarding house than a bed and breakfast. The first sign that things were off was when I called to make a reservation and the voice on the other end seemed confused. She fumbled with the dates... More

This is a basic B&B with a mixed review from me. The location is excellent and the prices are reasonable for its location near the main hub of Madison. The neighborhood is also historic and pleasant. The B&B was clean overall and there were plenty of towels and hot water. Downsides are that I would consider this more as a... More

Sheer delight, an oasis of gentile home town hospitality found in a general maelstrom of commercial greed. Visiting the USA from England we were delighted with the warm welcome we received and our stay was made all the more memorable by the very high standards set by our hosts. The accommodation was first rate, comfortable and clean, and the all... More

My friend & I shared a twin bedded room at The Gilman Street Rag in Madison, Wisconsin. Once we dragged our bags up the steep, narrow staircase we were pleased to discover our room had a window unit air conditioner. It was furnished with antiques and the walls displayed a collection of interesting framed art. We were told that we’d... More

We stayed 2 nights at the Gilman and were delighted with it. Our room was bright, cheerful, clean, and fully curtained. The bath was attached and lovely and we had a porch of our own. The kitchen and dining room overlook a beautiful city garden and the host kept her dogs on the deck outside. We were within walking distance... More
