10/10 Excellent
"Arrived at hotel late & there wasn't parking for my Uhaul, the employee at the front desk for check in was really helpful & allowed me to park in an area reserved for security (I don't remember her name, sorry!) Parking fenced in & secure. Everything was clean & updated. Room was spacious and bed comfortable. Only thing I didn't love was the pillows, they were to soft, but that's just a personal preference."
