well managed property but not a great nights sleep

I give this motel 5 stars mostly because the staff /owners were so friendly and helpful. The property itself was clean, parking was easy. We were gladly given more pillows and towels. But the beds were a bit uncomfortable. And it was 90 degrees outside and the and the A/C unit was loud and didn't keep the room cool.
