Ehh. Safe if you need a place to stop on 95

My room was facing west towards a car dealership with bright lights, there were no curtains on the window, and the lights reflected off a mirror on the other wall. The bed was comfortable, but I didn't get to sleep in even if I wanted to because there was no curtain on the window. In the morning, hallway noise was audible and I could hear the 95 even thought its not close.. won't stay again.

The hotel is Ok. Breakfast was good. On the negative side: 1) The indoor pool was closed. 2) Draining from our tub/shower combo was poor and I asked twice for fixing it, but it never happend.
