The room was a good size and we had a view of the water which Is even nicer. When we went, there was construction happening literally outside our window, but with the sound proofing it wasn't as loud as it would be. If you're a heavy sleeper like my partner you will have no issues, if you're a light sleeper like me you might hear the occasional beeps of their equipment. I also lost one of our room keys and the receptionist was very nice in recoding the new keys and she told me not to worry about it.
