NO SLEEP LOUD AS HELL
Loudest place I have ever stayed its currently 430 am and i have been up since 330 when the slamming and pounding started. Not sure if someone just came in or is getting ready to leave but its completely ridiculous. We are on the top floor so must be people behind us. I understand thin walls but this is too much. Maybe let late coming or early rising guests know to try and be respectful because it sounds like they are coming through the walls....very disappointed.
