10/10 Excellent
"We arrived and from the outside it was a bit outdated lawn wasn't kept up. But when you walked it to our surprise it was quite luxurious. There was an antique car in the lobby and a Continental breakfast. The man that checked us in was helpful and very nice. Their heater was down in the pool so we didn't go swimming. They had an indoor pool and our room had a door accessing the pool. Our room was clean and well stocked. Our neighbors were louder then they should have been. But other then that stay was amazing and breakfast was good. I'd recommend this hotel to anyone staying for a night while traveling. They do have weekly rates also."
