Nice room but so humid

We stayed in a 2 queen room facing the on ramp. The noise was noticeable but didnt prevent us from sleeping. But we also live near a busy street so it makes sense. My biggest issue was the air conditioner. It was more of a swamp cooler. Our room cooled but remained humid. When we returned home our clothes we repacked were damp. And the humidity in the room made getting ready for a wedding pretty tricky. If i were jist staying here for a quick stay over alone, it would be fine. But a family of 4 getting ready for a formal wedding would be a no.
