What guests think

Super 8 by Wyndham Madison South draws mixed reviews, with many guests praising friendly staff, convenient highway access, while others report dated facilities, inconsistent cleanliness, noisy halls and thin walls, and frequent maintenance issues across rooms and amenities.

Some rooms are clean and comfortable, and several travelers liked the pool hours and straightforward access to nearby dining or the Alliant Energy Center. Common frustrations include dirty or out-of-order pool or hot tub, breakfast that runs out or is poorly maintained, and neglected public areas. Guests also cite hallway noise, marijuana odors, occasional overbooking or billing disputes, and a somewhat sketchy feel in parts of the property. Expect a budget stay best for short, no-frills stops.

The water was green in the pool and could not be used. I chose this hotel because of the pool and could not use it. The water was so green you could tell it was like that for quite some time. They should have let you know the pool was out of commission before you booked it.

It’s a super 8, so don’t go in with high expectations and you’ll be satisfied. It’s an older hotel, but overall pretty clean. Beds are pretty firm but fine, good breakfast, and good pool/hot tub. Works great when you need a place to sleep for the night and there’s no other options!

Loud children in adjoining room we had a dog which was quiet all night until those kids were making noise, then he barked. Outside my window tons of litter scattered on the property; it is like no one cleaned. the rooms were clean for the most part but everywhere else was dirty.

Perkins next door was convenient. Our room was dingy with stained walls, tub, towel with a burn hole, parts of bathroom not cleaned, the hair dryer had layers of dirt, wrinkled sheets, not enough blankets. There was a very strong smell that seemed like an undiluted antiseptic had been spilled. It was gross. The only nice thing was a newer mirror. Everything else needs replacing.

Went to Madison, WI for 2 days worth of medical testing. Got a diagnosis that is less than favorable and now discovered I brought home Bed Bugs from this hotel. So now I not only have to navigate a serious health condition but bed bugs as well. The room appeared to be clean so I didn’t wash all the clothes I didn’t wear while there, I know stupid. I have had to wash everything in my dresser and closet, rugs, bedding and basically my entire house. Definitely will not be staying there again when I go to Madison over the next 6 months for treatment. I’ve told my family not to stay there as well.

The pictures are not accurate for this hotel. The hotel could use some work. The carpets in the hallways and stairwells are very dirty and not maintained. Our tub had a hole in it and they put an anti-slip mat over the top of it. The bed was reasonably comfortable. Yes you could hear the TV on next to us but you can at most hotels. Our room was dirty. Maybe my level of cleanliness exceeds the housekeeping department. The homeless like to hang out in the stairwells and come in for breakfast. Kind of a sketchy place!

This was the only available hotel for under $250 at the time I stayed there. I travel a lot and this is the worst hotel room I have been to. The room looks like it hasn’t been updated since 1990s, it smelled (not bad, just an old room smell), there was mold in the shower. The door connecting my room to the next room did not lock on my side, so that anyone from the adjacent room could have come into my room during my stay. That made me very uncomfortable. The bed was okay, the pillows were small, hard and uncomfortable. The room temperature was comfortable, the noise level okay. I could hear people in the next room watching TV, but it was not loud.

Our check-in process went smoothly and the clerk was friendly and courteous. Room was comfortable, except there was a fair amount of noise from other rooms that interfered with sleep. Breakfast on the first morning of our stay had eggs and sausages that were still frozen. Tables were dirty, and no attendant present to check on food levels. The second morning, there was an attendant, and our breakfast experience was much more positive. The one issue that wasn't resolved was 2 local TV channels that didn't work, despite being listed on the program guide.

Our reservation was for two rooms, 3 nights. Check-in and first night were normal. Left for tourist events. When we returned, 9:00 pm, neither room was made up. Went to bed. Shortly someone with a key attempted to enter our room. We were all startled; manager phoned immediately. Said we weren’t in the system; couldn’t find us by name so both rooms had been cancelled/erased. She had me spell our name THREE times, then told me to go to sleep, she’d take care of it. I immediately phoned our second room and cautioned them to flip the security bar. Around 2:00 am someone with a key attempted to enter their room. In the morning, new manager knew nothing about it. We started over and she had to phone the night manager. Eventually, we got new keys for both rooms. NOT a good experience.

Awful. What a trainwreck it’s been to try and get someone to take responsibility for booking a reservation through Expedia and ultimately I had adjusted it down to one night and the front loaded almost the entire two night original charge onto one night to benefit them. They never sent me an updated amount or an agreed-upon nightly rate for me to be able to know ahead of time that they were frontloading the reservation, far far above the average price per night. This was already a premium because of an event going on in town. They ended up charging me $356 for one night at a grimy disgusting super eight motel. It was so gross that we opted to drive the five hours home that night rather than to stay there. Number one advice don’t book through a third-party vendor, number two advice don’t stay at this disgusting hotel. To top it all off when we were checking in the front desk person had their AirPods and the whole time talking to somebody in the language that we couldn’t understand and told me they were only taking my credit card to have on file for damages and ultimately, I never signed anything agreeing to the incredibly inflated nightly rate. Just bad customer service all around.

I asked the front desk woman who is Indian. Not that that matters but she spoke so quickly that I couldn't understand her and I asked her. Do you have a laundry service? And she said yes and I asked how much would it cost for a load of laundry and she said $5 and I asked. Do you have an ATM on site? And she said don't worry I will give you the quarters. So I went upstairs. Got my clothes. Came downstairs And ask for quarters to do laundry and she said do you expect me to charge this to your room? And I said no. You said you were going to give them to me..... She said I can't charge them to the card and I asked her when I asked. Do you have an ATM to get cash? You said you would give me the coins and she said no. You have to go get the coins from the ATM. You have to get money from the ATM then I will give you the coins and then I walked over the ATM and it was out of service. I had to take my laundry to another facility and they were not even sorry about the time that I drug my laundry up the stairs down the stairs up the stairs they could care less.

They have daily housekeeping. Yet, sometimes they come in the room and do nothing: bed not made, bathroom not cleaned, lucky if you can get a new towel. They are always away from the desk. It's just over sketchy area. But the gentleman who checked me in was really nice and accomodating when I asked about room with more outlets. Overall it's just a dated building that needs to be rebuilt to today's standards.

Horrible service. Checked in around 9 pm, requested extended check out. Check out was approved, told to call the next morning and tell front desk a time. (Weird for me to have to go out of my way to do so, but I agreed) returned to our room at 8:30 am, Cale’s front desk, gave them a time. Told to call back at 9 am and discuss this again. I explained that we had just gotten to our room for sleep, and that I would try to call but that this was their notification and my request. At 11 am a knock came to my door from housekeeping, telling me to vacate the room, I explained we had a late check out for 1 pm. Even offered to pay extra. And I was told that was not his problem, and that late check out was 11:30. At this point I said fine, give me 45 mins to get myself together shower and I would vacate. Instead I was told that it was now 11:30, and he would not allow further time and we needed to leave right then. I went to the front desk, explained everything. And was refused a refund. So we did everything right by them. Paid for a room with a deposit. That both were not returned to me. And we only utilized the room for 2.5 hours of sleep. At the end of the day- very unprofessional and even if I was in the wrong, which I was not, it’s never okay for staff to speak with someone the way I was spoken to.

Do not stay here. I was flying in from South Carolina for game day. I booked my room 5 months in advance. As I was pushing back from the gate at the airport I called them to let them know I would be landing at 10:30 pm and would be checking in around 11:00. I got to the hotel at 11:10 only to find out they cancelled my reservation and gave my room to someone else and no longer had any vacancies. Because it was a football weekend I could not get a room. I never write reviews but under the circumstances I felt the need to.

The photos seemed nice, but upon arrival I learned looks were VERY deceiving. I arrived around 1 a.m. and by that that time it was too late to try and find a different place. Staff were nice, and helpful at check in. I forgot my tumbler on the counter and it was still there the next morning. Interesting demographic of individuals staying there, and various odors permeated the air. The carpet had stains, not sure from what exactly, but quite possibly bodily fluids. I slept in my street clothes on top of the covers. The shower had nice water pressure. Dry cereal and toast for breakfast. The coffee was hot and the ice machine worked - so I considered that a win. Conveniently located on Madison’s South Side near the bus line and a several eateries.
