AC ok. The road noise is all night long and the door has glass allowing light into the room all night. It does not seem safe as the door is to the street it should be labelled as a motel.

Disliked: Amenities
The staff was not particularly courteous, and the hotel's proximity to a main highway resulted in noticeable noise. Additionally, children were frequently present near the rooms, which affected the overall quietness and my ability to rest. The room provided was also less comfortable than expected.
