Mixed experience due to noise and service

spacious roomloud musicindifferent staff
The room was spacious, which i appreciated.
The hotel was REALLY noisy. I could hear music from the bar until late into the night and this made it hard to sleep. Service at the bar was a little slow, it was hard to get someone's attention for drinks. i also felt the staff seemed a bit indifferent to my concerns.
