    Cool across from?

    Hi,
    Is the following sentence correct?

    I ate at a fast-food across from the hotel.

    You need a noun, though.

    A fast-food joint
    A fast-food place
    A fast-food restaurant

    The rest is okay.

    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
