    Nice location, slow mainteenance

    The Madison is very affordable, and is in a good location (right next to the MFL line and several bus routes).

    We've had some issues with maintenance being a bit slow, however. Had to wait several weeks for small things to be fixed after notifying the maintenance folks more than once.
