Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Negative: During our stay, a large group of students came as part of an event. Until around 10 PM, they kept knocking on our door and repeatedly disturbed us. Even after informing the reception, we were told that since quiet hours start at a certain time, no action would be taken. This was very uncomfortable and frustrating because it wasn’t only noise; we were personally disturbed in our room multiple times, and no measures were taken to prevent it.
