My room was located above a generator or fan that caused a constant rumbling sensation. It made me very uncomfortable, so I requested to switch to another room just 10 minutes after checking in. Unfortunately, the staff did not believe me at first and were unwilling to provide another room right away. Eventually, I was switched to a different room, but the initial lack of trust from the staff left me feeling even more uncomfortable.
