What guests think
At The Mill Hotel, guests frequently praise very clean, comfortable rooms within a charming historic building, easy self check-in, and a walkable location with a popular coffee shop downstairs plus restaurants, breweries, and shops nearby.
Decor and beds earn consistent compliments. However, recurring drawbacks include thin walls and occasional noise from hallways or HVAC. Some guests experienced access-code, Wi-Fi or TV setup issues, and off-site support can be slow. Note that some rooms have private bathrooms located down the hall, which some found inconvenient. Expect a clean, boutique-style stay with minimal onsite staffing.

Great stay here as a couple. Communication was timely and helpful. The restaurant downstairs was a fantastic plus as well as the brewery across the street. Parking is easy and onsite. I would recommend!

Loved that it was quiet and well care-for. The downstairs coffeehouse was a great option for breakfast. Would definitely return. Suggestions: Some kind of a grab bar would be very helpful for older adults using the shower. If not right in the shower, then outside of it. It's a safety issue. We found the television very cumbersome and not at all intuitive to use, and there were no written instructions. We never did get the "free channels" - which we would have liked during the DNC. We just gave up on television and watched the DNC on an iPad!

The wall HVAC unit was broken and a space heater was provided but neither remote or local button operation seemed to work. It's also very loud - can hear others in the hallway as if they were in my room. Not deal breakers, but minor inconveniences that would make me think harder about booking again. The coffee shop downstairs is top tier!

I wanted to like this much more than I actually did. It's a very cool building, but... Code provided didn't work, had to call and then text to get a different code. Internet did not work, which also prohibited the TV from working. It was jiust an OK stay, it has potential to be a very nice hotel, need to work on some small upgrades. Needs better coffee in common area, Need to upgrade soap and shampoo provided.

I loved this hotel. My only suggestion would be that the hall had a coffee maker but only one pod in the basket and no mugs or cups. Also there were no cups for drinking in the room. Otherwise a beautiful place.

The room was as pictured, historic and well done building renovation. Check in was a bit confusing as I was not sent code and instructions ahead of time. Did get quick response and assistance when called number on contact card. Room was freezing upon checkin as someone turned over to ac in the dead of winter. Once things warmed up, comfortable. Good location and reasonable price, close to Dame County Airport.

There are no onsite staff, entry is via lock codes. Be aware that one room (single queen) has a dedicated bathroom that is down the hotel hallway separate from the room. I rented this and it is a little inconvenient, particularly if you need a mid-night bathroom break.

The Mill is in a good location with a popular coffee shop underneath which is very convenient. Our room #201 had a bathroom that was down the hall. Very odd. I need to pay better attention to descriptions before I book! Also the air conditioner was very noisy. My husband suspects it is low on freon as the air compressor was loud every time it kicked on. The room was small but clean and comfy.

Great stay here as a couple. Communication was timely and helpful. The restaurant downstairs was a fantastic plus as well as the brewery across the street. Parking is easy and onsite. I would recommend!

I liked it that it was like an AirB&B. No check in just use the combo and go to the room. Only there for one night but it was great. Mexican Food place across the street was awesome.

The wall HVAC unit was broken and a space heater was provided but neither remote or local button operation seemed to work. It's also very loud - can hear others in the hallway as if they were in my room. Not deal breakers, but minor inconveniences that would make me think harder about booking again. The coffee shop downstairs is top tier!

The room was so cozy and the beds and pillows were so comfortable!! Very clean and the shower was awesome!! We will be back! The food downstairs in the coffee shop was delicious, the only complaint is that they did not have decaf coffee.

Extremely clean room, self check in was a breeze, place was completely silent and we only saw one other guest the entire time we were there. The coffee bar was a very sweet addition!

Our room was EXACTLY as pictured and absolutely pristine. Very stylish and comfortable! We loved the quaintness of this boutique hotel and the breakfast at the cute coffee shop downstairs was amazing!! The hotel is off the road a bit but within walking distance of some really cute establishments - wine bar, restaurant/pub with rooftop seating, ice cream parlor. We wished we could have stayed two nights!

Cute property with a lot of history! Wonderful attention to detail and very, very clean. They were very accommodating when I asked to change the type of room I booked prior to check in, and the location is perfect and walkable to all things downtown Waunakee and the road in and out of town.

Our overall experience was incredible. They kept us updated and made it super easy to check in. The room was ready, clean, comfortable and safe. Selfishly a Lonely Girl Brewery was right across the street. We got good food and beer. I highly recommend this place for future stays.

Small 6 room unique and beautiful place to stay. Once we booked the stay, received multiple messages on information about hotel, property, and services. Easy access to 2nd floor. Amazing remodeled 100+yr old building. Rooms were perfect size for sleeping and open concept community room was nice for relaxing. Bonus was the amazing Grace coffee shop downstairs for drinks and food. Outdoor seating was lite during evening to just relax. Very close to downtown amenities and restaurants. Only negative is it’s right next to an active railroad track that is used once or twice, but a 2a train horn was startling. But, that’s a known staying at an old rail road building. All in all, definitely will come back!

We had a question at check-in and received a prompt response. The room was exceptionally clean. The location was perfect. We walked across the street for dinner and downstairs for breakfast. Our only regret was not having more time to explore the area. A great place to stay!
