"I was sent a last minute message saying i was upgraded and the room was good. I really did not need 2 other beds though. There was a loud banging for over an hour last night around 8ish then again this morning. I followed the sound and it was the hot water meter attached to the wall of my unit. It sounded like a dryer with several work boots in it. Shame as it was a comfortable stay otherwise."
