mixed stay with some issues

prom discoinadequate pillow
i was really annoyed that my room was right above a prom. the disco went on until 11 pm, and then i was kept awake by the cleanup. i contacted reception, but the barman was the only one on duty and couldn't help. i wasn't told about the prom at check-in, which i found frustrating.
