8/10 Very good

Fine, but nothing special
Fine enough hotel ... the room looked like it could have been anywhere, and a just a little shabby--hall carpets in need of an update. Everything clean, and friendly cleaning staff, but for an older, reputable hotel, I expected something more, or a little special.
