It's amusing... in the more expensive listings, a "2" review is the manager needing customer service training or checkout time was mis-quoted. In the cheaper places, a "2" is drug deals in the parking lot, screaming babies, bugs and moldy carpet.
I have found possibilities via, of all things, the Delta site - Is anyone familiar with these?
- VIP Inn and Suites on S Memorial - $75/night. It's 6 miles from Von Braun so I'm almost guaranteed to find a Waffle House on the way if the hotel breakfast is bad.
- Best Western Plus Madison - $103/night. 10 miles out, mixed 'OK' reviews, looks like a proper breakfast buffet.
- Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham - $105/night. Half an hour out, but nice reviews.
- Hilton Garden Inn Madison/Airport - $110/night. 10 miles out, reviews claim its new-ish, looks like the pics show a proper breakfast buffet...
Weird... I found one listed as a home for rent... says $79 a night, cost for 2 nights $349.
