Under construction - great staff. Needs some work

Wonderful and friendly staff. Stayed in a 3rd floor suite. Something noisy on roof. Heater/AC works well but when it stops it makes a very odd and pretty load noise that sounds like an animal crying. Thinking it was some kind of air discharge. Odd yes, but that was the sound.
