Thanks for your feedback, obviously the hotel has no control with regards to what happens with neighbouring buildings. We will discuss the time of works with the building next door, it should be restricted to the hours of 8am to 6pm, i.e. normal working hours. I'm glad to read that you found your room and our team to be great. Kindest regards Marcus
