10/10 Exceptional

I stayed here last night and had a good experience overall. The hotel has an older, old-fashioned look both on the outside and inside, but everything was very well maintained and taken care of. The room was clean and comfortable, and you could tell the staff keeps the property up despite the older style. The bathroom was very clean and looked good, and the beds and sheets were clean and comfortable as well. The only thing I did not know ahead of time was that parking was an extra $15, which was not mentioned on Hotels.com, but it was all good because they had security checking the parking lot throughout the night which made it feel safe and secure. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and I would stay here again.
