Acceptable but Problematic Stay

on-site parkingbad sound insulationunconcerned staff
The on-site parking suited my visit.
The room was above a busy bar. Bad sound insulation meant I could hear everything happening downstairs. A fire alarm even went off while I was asleep. Staff seemed less than concerned..
