My room faced a very busy road. I heard truck noises all night. Other guests slammed their doors too. It was really loud. I tried to get coffee, but the barista seemed more interested in chatting than making my order. I waited fifteen minutes while my ride waited downstairs, and I arrived late to my meeting.
