The AC unit or something was making the floor in my room vibrate. I didnt say anything because I could not feel it or hear it when i was in bed with my hearing aids off.
The bed was lumpy and had pits, but i slept ok. It wasnt worth the inflated price i paid, but kind of had to make due. Could have been worse.

The hotel room was very clean. There was a lot of noise and smell coming from the adjacent rooms. The parking lot was comfortable and free. The staff was nice and friendly. But the only downside was the breakfast, which was simply awful.
