I attempted to exchange for a smaller size it was refused because I took the tags off and wore them. I'm not sure how I would have figured out I'd been given bad advise by the store associate without wearing them. She did not indicate they would stretch considerably when being worn. I would not recommend shopping at this store. They don't stand behind their products or their customers.

I'm reviewing the Hilldale location because I think it's a benefit that Madison has a physical location for customers to really feel and see the item and ensure that their clothes will stand the test of time. Every time I've popped into Madewell, the store is clean, the sale section is big, and staff are gracious and friendly. Fitting rooms are closed right now due to COVID, which is something to keep in mind. I did get fit and styling tips for a couple items that I was unsure about, so I love that they offer that in-person touch for a site that I've mainly shopped at online. One of the items I was interested in was out of stock in the store, and the staffperson was able to order from the online site to my house but include the different store deals on my order, which is a service I appreciated. Very happy we have the physical location here!

The parking can be hard, but they do have a ramp and a parking lot that we never have an issue finding a spot. Can't wait to come back here when in the area again!

We have popped in a few times when dining nearby and the experience with service, or lack thereof unfortunately, is fairly consistent. We spent close to 10 minutes wandering around and not once were we greeted or acknowledged, and we actually needed help. Finding someone was a bit tough too. The store is always well stocked, clean and in good condition. No issues there. Pricing is standard for a Macy's. Not a lot of discounts or sales on the major brands. Overall, it's a Macy's. There for when the need arises. This location is a solid 2.5 for me.

What a nice experience. I might start shopping more in the store and less online.

Nordstrom Rack is a great place to go and find what the store Nordstrom offers but at semi…read morediscounted prices. I think it's important to note that when you go in here, you're not gonna find really cheap prices. The prices are still up there. They're just a little bit less than you will find in the actually Nordstrom store and/or Nordstrom online. For me, the main reason I like Nordstrom Rack is their selection of shoes. They have a really big selection of shoes, particularly tennis shoes. They truly have a large amount of all of the name brands. And again, at semi discounted price prices. They're not cheap, but they are below what you would have to pay at the regular Nordstrom stores or most other sporting goods retailers. In terms of clothing, they have a lot of it. They have both a large selection of men and women's clothing. It's truly a vast amount. I don't usually find clothes that catch my eye at this store, but my wife always seems to find something. So, that may let you know of the mindset of the people who shop here. For men, they have a nice selection of suits, sport coats, slacks, and dress shirts. But, they're not exceptionally good deals. Personally, I prefer to go into a shop that is more devoted to those things when I buy such items. For my wife, however, she commonly finds nice dresses, tops, and also, shoes. She too, is a big fan of their shoe department. The one thing I will say is that if you want to get a nice pair of Doc Martens, this is a great place to buy them. They seem to discount Doc Martin's more than they do their other name brand shoes. This is just something to think about. Overall, if you want some high-end clothing, and/or shoes, and/or jewelry, and/or a little bit of anything else that Norstrom offers, this is a good place to purchase it.

I went to the dressing room and the attendant asking me how many items I had, I told them, and they stopped and made me let them count and leave the pack of socks I was carrying on the counter. Someone else took the socks while I was in the room. Next, I wanted some cologne. Took awhile to find someone to open the lock box where they keep it, and they looked at me like I wasn't making sense when I asked for cologne. When I tried to carry it up to go check out, they snatched it out of my hand and carried it straight to the register. Just a bit odd to treat paying customers like they're expecting you to rob them. It will probably make me stick to ordering from the online store in the future.
