8/10 Good
"We checked in for only 1 night but our room was meticulously cleaned and the bathroom is nice & big with lots of space. The beds are very comfortable and our room had a patio overlooking golf course. Although a little dated, the hotel is still very nice & in a quiet area. Another plus is a huge (free) parking lot with ample parking spots. There are also a lot of restaurants in the area plus a Starbucks down the road if you’re looking. Free continental breakfast in the morning but basic, nothing fancy. Nice place and highly recommend."
