Loud noises at night time and early morning from 7AM. We stayed 3 nights; first night the fire alarm went off at 4AM (false alarm) for more than 15 minutes, second night there were thousands of protestors on streets nearby, singing and chanting, very loud until midnight. The Temple nearby is loud too. Just all kinds of noises. It's convenient location to the Palaces and the breakfast is awesome.
