Let's be clear: I'm never a fan of staying in hotels. Other guests are often noisy and the beds are…read morenever that comfortable to me. If I could travel but still enjoy the comforts of my own home, I would. Alas, that's not how reality works, so this Holiday Inn was a decent option when I had to travel for a family member's wedding. My family shared rooms close together, and I think altogether our experience was pretty smooth. My brother and I had plenty of space in the room that we shared; we could spread out and get ourselves organized for the big day. The room was kept clean the entire weekend. And the wi-fi was fairly consistent, too, which I'm always grateful for in a hotel. That said, the layout of the hotel is admittedly...not the most logical thing I've ever seen. Elevators aren't where you expect them to be (and are slow), and I got a fair number of steps in my day just strolling from the lobby, up the stairs, down a long hall, to my hotel room. There's also a very small area for a continental breakfast in the lobby - and I do mean small; it didn't look like there was even room for the basics to me, although I never visited during breakfast hours to confirm that hunch. 3.5 stars from me. The hotel layout is odd, and I could always do with a softer bed; but it was a decent enough stay, especially for this particular location.

When we travel to see family in Chicago, there are two different ways that we can take. Usually we…read moretake the route through Madison and Rockford to Chicago. The other way which is a bit longer is going through Milwaukee and then down to Chicago. This trip we decided to go the Milwaukee route because we could then stop at one of our favorite places for breakfast (Franks Diner) as well as we wanted to check out an Italian deli that we heard and read good things about. Since we were leaving after work we decided to get a hotel around the halfway point. This would then allow us to get up and make it to Franks in time for breakfast. We located a Comfort Inn in Johnson Creek which is located just outside of Madison. While it looked conveniently located just off of the highway, it took a few minutes to get to their location. Not a big deal. We actually really liked their location as the hotel is located in a neighborhood. This was nice as it was far enough from the highway where you could still hear the vehicles driving, however it was not loud enough to make it hard to sleep. Some of the Yelp reviews were certainly mixed. We found that there was plenty of parking. Check in process was smooth. The room was large and clean. The bed was decent and the shower pressure was decent. They do have a continental breakfast which did not meet what we thought would be a continental breakfast from our previous experience.There was some juice, cereal, granola bars and eggs. Not much of a selection at least when we stopped in. Not that big of a deal for us as we already had breakfast plans. The best part of this hotel was the price. Our room with a king bed was about $100.00. Very affordable! We would certainly consider staying here again next time we take a trip this way.

This is one of the two hotels in this area, and certainly better than the alternative! The beds are…read morecomfortable, the room was clean, there are lots of pillows! The couch/sofa was old and pilled; I just didn't use it. The check in was pretty easy. Shout out to Rebecca, who was working the front desk/service area while I stayed. She was really helpful with (1) food, (2) getting my reservation to add an extra day and (3) finding the food I ordered from a nearby restaurant. She even offered plates and plastic cutlery. Hero of the weekend. The negatives are the noise -- kids running up and down the hallways and screaming. I had asked for a remote far away spot when I checked in, but ended up right by the elevator and in a loud corridor. Also, nobody was wearing masks in the hotel. Staff were, yes, and they give you a baby-size hand sanitizer. But the guests at this hotel didn't follow signage. I do wish there were more hand sanitizers around and enforcing masks in public areas.

Manager on duty answered my call on check in day to confirm we had a 1st floor room (rolling in bikes) and give us an orientation when we checked in. Took care of getting me a replacement light bulb for one on the fritz. For $120 a night (no minimum stay), we got a fireplace suite double queen. Didn't test the fireplace but it had a serviceable coffee table, couch seating for three (no sofabed) and also a separate desk to work at. Fridge and freezer included. I forgot that there was vending in the building and Hardee's across the street closes at 10 p.m.! Beds were comfortable and shower was efficient. Inside/outside sinks make it easier for folks to get ready. Relaxed - did not test TV for streaming. Wifi was fine. Sorry no photo! No frills inn - so lobby is small for seating, so some folks hung out outside to enjoy the great Friday evening.

I was looking for a place to spend the night in Lake Mills and the choices seemed pretty limited…read more Luckily I found Sweet Autumn Inn. My stay was for a single night in July 2011. I booked The Everson Room. The house is easy to find as it is right on the main road south of town. It was set far enough back though, so traffic noise was not a problem. Guest parking is in the rear of the house. The guest entrance is in the front. So you get to go for a short walk to get from one to the other. After ringing the doorbell, we were met at the front door by Terri, the innkeeper. She cheerfully got us checked in and gave a quick tour of the house. The house smelled of baking cookies. Sweet Autumn Inn is much smaller than some of the bed and breakfasts that I have stayed at, but let's just call it cozy. It felt very intimate, like I was visiting my mother's house. There are only 3 guest rooms, so it is not like the place was crawling with people. During my stay I only saw one other couple and that was at breakfast. The Everson room was lovely. It was tastefully decorated with just enough old fashioned charm to make you feel comfortable without feeling like you were in an old antique store. There was enough room to move around, but not a lot. The attached bathroom was clean, but basic. It didn't really match the character of the rest of the room. The bed was very comfortable and I slept wonderfully. The room came with its own window unit A/C and a ceiling fan so I was able to get the temperature to be just what I wanted. There was not a TV in the room. This was not a big deal to me, but some people need one. (There was a TV downstairs in a common room.) I didn't spend a lot of time in the house because we had plans to visit Tyranena Brewing. It turns out that when Terri is not running her wonderful B&B, she works part-time for Tyranena. She was very enthusiastic about the beer and gave us some tips before we headed out. Breakfast was served promptly at 9AM in the dining room. Terri had asked us the day before if we had any dietary restrictions or special requests. Since we are not picky eaters, we assured her that we would love whatever she served. Breakfast was delicious. There was a selection of juices and coffee. We started with some fresh berries and a dollop of honey yogurt. Then a hazelnut pastry, before jumping into the main course which was some kind of multilayer baked version of french toast with bits of ham in it. We ended our stay by chatting with Terri about beer, the house and Lake Mills in general. She was a very engaging host, which always makes a B&B stay even better. Overall, I would definitely recommend Sweet Autumn Inn and I know where I will be staying the next time I am in Lake Mills.

Breakfast was non-existent, yogurt and bread do not make a breakfast in my book. I can not believe they can get away with charging 115$ a night.

They must be doing well for themselves because the bar was packed on our Thursday evening visit. There are a few tables off the bar and the above described patio has a few tables as well. Just watch the kids when the train goes through. $8.50 Pulled pork plate & $.45 wing special on Thursdays. Both were pretty good and typical for what you'd expect from bar fare.
