Nice hotel but some rooms have noise from pipes.

The hotel staff were great and the room was fine. The only problem was that there was a water pipe behind the wall in our room and every time someone in one of the rooms above or nearby flushed the toilet or took a shower there was a rush of water and other noises. The noise made it difficult to sleep. Luckily they provide complimentary ear plugs in the bathroom (probably intended for racing noise). I have stayed there before in other rooms without this problem. This was in room 139.

VERY DISAPPOINTING

Aircon didnt work but the beautiful receptionist moved us. Ordered room service which came in a Paper bag with wooden cutlery. I ordered from your restaurant NOT UberEATS. A tray and dinner plate and proper cutlery would have been expected at $180 a night???? Chips were from a frozen bag 1/2 cooked. Very disappointed, and received a very poor email back from The Rydges Pit Lane.
