I spent a night in room 203 and was awakened early in the morning around 8:00 AM by construction noise, which only improved around 3:00 PM. There is renovation work being done in the building next door, and I was not informed about it in advance. I believe it's unreasonable for a hotel not to notify guests ahead of time so that they can choose not to stay there.
