Acceptable but Noisy Stay

late night noiseearly morning kegs
The noise was significant. Staff moved furniture late at night and early in the morning. The scraping and rolling sounds were disruptive. It is difficult to relax when kegs are rolled around at such hours. The management needs to address this issue to ensure guest comfort.
