Glen Barrington (ID: 00000044ae4d7f0d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/16/2024 It grades significantly tougher than some of the others. I don't know if that is good or bad. I tend to look at 2 or 3 ratings services and try to find a middle ground. While the letter grade is useful, I think the service could do a better job of explaining WHY they gave the rating they did.
