6/10

We enjoyed our stay with the exception of noice. We heard staff cleaning / moving furniture around in the restaurant / bar after it closed from 11:30pm to 1:30am. Additionally, every-time someone flushed a toilet above or around us we were woken up by the rush of water running through the walls / pipes.
