Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Andra, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above 10th) to minimize potential street noise from 4th Avenue. As a 3-star hotel, rooms are likely to have concrete floors, which can be noisy, so a higher floor will help reduce foot traffic and elevator noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the service entrance (if it's located on 4th Avenue) or near the elevator bank on lower floors (1-5) as they may be noisier due to increased foot traffic.
Best views
Unfortunately, with 4th Avenue being a major street, there are no notable views of the surrounding area to request, but you can ask for a room with a view of the surrounding buildings or the city skyline.
Quietest floors
Floors 11-17 are likely to be quieter, given their distance from the street and elevator noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Be aware that 4th Avenue is a busy street with traffic, pedestrians, and emergency vehicles, which may cause occasional noise. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the city's nightlife may lead to some noise from bars and clubs nearby.
Insider tips
1. Request a room with a refrigerator as it may not be standard in all rooms, but it can be a convenient amenity for storing snacks and drinks. 2. Consider asking for a room near the back of the hotel to reduce potential noise from the service entrance and 4th Avenue.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
