Best rooms
Request a room on the upper floors (3-4) for a quieter stay, as the hotel's lobby and reception area are located on the lower floors and may generate some noise. The hotel's location on a main road in Aflao means that rooms on the lower floors may be more susceptible to street noise.
Request a room on floors 2 or 3 at the rear side of the building, away from the main Aflao road. These mid-level floors avoid street-level noise and are high enough for some air circulation, but still quick to reach via stairs if the lift is busy.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor, as they are likely to be noisier due to the reception area and lobby being located there. Additionally, rooms near the service entrance may experience noise from staff and deliveries.
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street — expect traffic noise from the Aflao road, especially trucks and motorbikes starting early. Also skip rooms near the lift shaft or stairwell on any floor, as they can pick up foot traffic and door slams.
