"The room also had motion sensors connected to the lights and HVAC system.... The system blows cold until it doesn't sense any motion."

All travelers have endured:
1) ineffective A/C,
2) loud A/C,
3) A/C that blows on you when you try to sleep and,
4) A/C that stops cooling if the patio door (or the master switch room key) is slightly ajar.

But this is a new one.

Does the A/C stop functioning when you are asleep?
That might be a deal breaker in hot and humid Florida.
