Baymont Inn & Suites by Wyndham Madison
Please fix the broken hot water machine, at breakfast! It’s not acceptable to have broken things at a hotel. Also, there’s no overhead light in room 302. There’s one light where you enter, that’s it. The nightstand lights are not enough to light the room at night. It’s dark. Thank you
