Our room, 4, was directly above the bar and an awful din came up through the floor. It was very noisy and kept us awake when we went to bed before the bar closed. Then well after 11pm there was a series loud bangs as doors were slammed downstairs below us - made our room rattle and shake. Not pleasant.
