Unfortunately I was woken from noise (music) coming from a staff/ cupboard room which felt right next to mine between 1.30am and 5am. Not great preparation for the day ahead sadly. May have been a one off but has coloured my view a bit (btw, hotel were very good when the issue was raised so big thumbs up there)
