There was a slight smell of mold which gave me a headache during the night. I’m susceptible to mold. From my point of view the air quality was not good. It seemed to mostly come from the bathroom but am not sure.

The pillow cause and shower mat were ditty. The fresh wall paint was s p strong that my stomach was upset. Thd bed is very uncomfortable, mattress is too old. Tv remote control wasn't working and no closet to hang up your clothes.I try to get my money back. I won't recommend this motel stay.
