Best rooms

Request a room on the upper floors (above the 3rd floor) as the hotel has a lift, but it's a 3-star hotel, so the lift might be a bit old and potentially noisy. These rooms will also have a better view of the surrounding area.

Request a room on a higher floor (4th or 5th) to minimize potential street noise from the city center. Given the hotel's address in Horta, a bustling town, the higher floors will provide a better buffer against noise from the streets below.

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms near the service entrance, as it's likely to be a busy area with staff and deliveries. Also, rooms near the lift might experience some noise from its operation.

Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1st-3rd) as they may be closer to the street and potentially noisier, especially if you're a light sleeper.
