Was Kimberly's consent to search her motel room voluntary?

Narcotics Officer Odell followed Kimberly's car and stopped her at 12:15 a.m. after she made a turn from a left-turn lane without activating her car's turn signals. A registration check indicated that the license plate was registered to a different vehicle. Odell asked and Kimberly gave consent to search the car, which took about ten minutes. Odell discovered a seed and flake of marijuana on the driver's side floorboard. Odell told Kimberly that he would not charge her for the marijuana. He determined that she and her boyfriend were staying at a motel a quarter of a mile away and asked for permission and obtained consent to search her room. She drove her car to the motel. Officer Odell found personal amounts of marijuana and crack-cocaine in the room.
What will be an ideal response?
