This is a motel not a hotel! The room doors open straight out onto an open walkway. The rooms get very hot and there is noise from outside cars, people in other rooms, people walking past. The restaurant staff could be much more welcoming and helpful. The food could also be much improved for the price the quality of food and service doesn’t match.
