Madison is a great city with friendly people. Other than being the state capital, it's mostly a university town. State Street, running between the university and the capitol building, is the center of all downtown activity.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … This is a really great hostel. Two blocks from the state capitol and an easy walk to the University. Lots of bars and cheap ethnic restaurants you can walk to. The hostel is clean and comfortable. Free internet access, tho only one computer to share. I'm already planning to go back.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … I stayed here for one night the first part of November 2006. All of the staff was very professional, courteous, and helpful. I needed a good night sleep, and the private room that I had gave me just that. The hostel is within walking distance to downtown, where I had my choice of where to eat for dinner that night and breakfast the following morning before I checked out.

HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … A very nice hostel. Incredibly nice and friendly people run it. Very clean. The people who run the hostel are very knowledgeable about the city. I had a great time here. It is in downtown Madison, which is where a lot of the attractions are. My only complaint is that there are very limited parking spaces, which means you will have to pay for parking in the downtown area.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … Very comfortable and clean hostel. What a HI hostel should be! Staff were friendly from the get go and provided helpful directions for local restaurants and bars. The dorm room was big and roomy, lots of storage space for backpacks. Bathroom was also massive and there was ample space to move around. The free movies and DVDs in the lounge area were a bonus too. Madison is an awesome City and it's a perfect fit for a great hostel. Only downside would be the lack of any WiFi connections nearby or at the hostel. Parking is also limited but I parked on the street all day and didn't get a ticket!
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … I was traveling cross-country on a two-month road trip and had heard great things about Madison and decided to stay a couple nights at the hostel. I didn't make a reservation but the staff was able to squeeze me for the nights that I wanted. I love the city and the hostel. I've stayed at a lot of hostels worldwide and the one in Madison is definitely one of the best for three specific reasons -- Great location (two blocks from the downtown of city), friendly and helpful staff, and very clean. I met some great people at the hostel, some I'm sure I'll be friends with for the rest of my life (including a couple of the staff) and I loved being able to walk around the city exploring.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … I lived at the Madison Hostel for three months. Not only is it comfortable, clean and centrally located, it is a mecca of diverse personalities and interesting people from all over the world. Movie nights are really fun and regardless of your length of stay, you'll always remember the Madison Hostel.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … Madison Hostel provided me with all that I needed and more during a very last-minute and important work-related stay in Madison, Wisconsin. From my first phone call to gather information, to my final goodbye, when the manager tried to pay for a cab to the airport because another hostel guest was late in picking me up as promised, the staff could not have been more helpful. I've stayed here again and would recommend this home-away-from-home without hesitation. It's immaculate, warm, well-run and a perfect location for exploring Mad City.
HI - Newburg, Wellspring Hostel in Newburg … This is one of the best hostels I stayed in whilst traveling. The area is beautiful and so are the gardens. Some of the events organised are very uplifting for your spirit and educational. You will receive a warm welcome from Mary Ann and the team.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … This was one of the cleanest hostels I have been to. It had a great sense of being home. I liked their no-shoe policy, which I'm guessing added to their cleanliness. I stayed for only one night (I was in Madison for a conference) this past November, so it was very quiet, but both the rooms and common space were spacious and clean, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this hostel.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … I love the Madison Hostel. I've been there a few times now, and I continue to come back year after year. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and very professional. The hostel itself is clean, safe, affordable, and the perfect place to explore downtown Madison. I love the brightly painted walls, the comfy common room and library, and all the resources it offers travellers. I would recommend this place time and time again and give it a five-plus rating.
HI - Madison Hostel in Madison … Located in the heart of the city, few minutes walk from the capitol this hostel is one of the best places you will stay at. The locality is safe, residential with few pubs nearby. I walked around at midnight and felt pretty safe. Madison itself is a small city so things are not more than few minutes of walking distance. When you enter you will realize that they have a "No shoes" policy. Initially I thought it cumbersome but the second you step inside, you realize its rationale. The place is spotlessly clean and you will definitely not want to dirty it up, will you? I stayed in a dorm, it was actually a room with four beds and an attached bath. Again very clean, comfortable, with enough space. I saw the private rooms as well, they looked nice. Now the more important part. The staff is very competent, courteous, helpful. I met two out of eight and had a great time chatting with them. They are mostly graduate students in the University of Wisconsin, hence any talk can be fun, lively…
