average stay due to noise and room issues

short curtainsbad noise
The noise was really bad. i could hear everything from the bar downstairs until late. our room was on the third floor (quite a distance!), so that was annoying. also, the curtains were too short. This let in light and a draft. it was difficult to sleep well with that light and cold air right by my head. i was disappointed with these issues.
