Acceptable Stay, but Noise Concerns

convenient location easy access significant noise cold food
The location proved convenient, providing easy access to the Underground station.
My room faced the car park and suffered significant noise issues. Heat pumps hummed throughout the night and early morning clanging disrupted sleep. The breakfast did not meet expectations, as the food was not kept hot enough.
