"Everything was good or great except for the disruptive sound coming almost all night from a club across the street--a super-bass beat that shook the room and probably the whole neighborhood. We didn't sleep much and left in the morning. A pity, because the hotel was quite beautiful and the staff was truly terrific in helping me with issues around my phone and other things. I encouraged them to somehow work to tone down this rude invasion of the neighborhood's peace."
