Your Perfect Room

Additionally, rooms on the south side (facing the city) might get some morning sun, but it's worth noting that this area is relatively quiet, with limited surrounding traffic.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor, especially those near the service entrance, as they may be prone to some noise from delivery vehicles and occasional hotel staff activity.
