I spent a wonderful Sunday (10/3/2004) night at the Madison House. When I called the Sands to book a room, they told me that they were full and asked if I would take one in the Madison House. Saying yes is something that I don't regret. I had read nightmare stories about late check-ins and dirty rooms so I didn't know what to expect. We arrived in Atlantic City at about 1:00 pm, several hours ahead of our check-in time of 4:00 pm. We left our bags in the car and stopped at the front desk to find out a definite check-in time so that we could enjoy the casino and boardwalk for a few hours. Much to our surprise, we were able to check in at 1:00 pm and were given a perfectly cleaned room. It was a two room suite with a king size bed, two televisions and two large closets. The girl who checked me in was very polite as were all of the other staff that I ran into during our stay. I have stayed in many hotels that may have been more elegant but cost a great deal more, while my room was a comp., the regular price for this room is well worth it. Ironically, when I booked the room, I was unaware of the pending Local 54 strike. Since my husband is a union bricklayer, we were also pleasantly surprised that the Sands employees were not involved in the strike. We had a great time and would recommend the Madison House to anyone. I look forward to our next visit!!

I thought the hotel was VERY nice, extremely comfortable, I think this hotel is one of Atlantic City's best kept secrets.
The room was a two room junior suite (we thought we were just getting your basic standard room) turns out all the rooms are junior suites in the Madison House. Two full bathrooms, one with a victorian soaking tub, the other will a full shower, beds were very comfortable. We had three people in the room and had PLENTY of room.
The fresh coffee in the room was a definate plus.
The fact that its connected to the Sands via a walkway is also a major plus as it was raining when we stayed. The hall way did smell a little musty, but we figures that was a summer time; beach hotel standard..it was pretty humid outside.
We also ate a Rossi's in the Sands, which was a gourmet Italian restaurant, it was also excellent.

I will definatly return to the Madison House!

It was a very large suite.. we had 2 full bathrooms a livingroom and a bedroom with 2 queen size beds.. the staff was very pleasant and our experience was wonderful.. the hallway did smell a little musty but the room was great

There isn't enough room to write all the problems we had at the Madison house! We changed rooms but that didn't seem to help matters. Management did not care about any of our complaints either. The room was gross, nothing worked, service was disgusting. I will NEVER return not even if it were free!!!!!!
