There were kids running on the floor above us. It was ridiculous. It was nonstop from about 9:30 pm to midnight and started in again at 7am. The feont desk person told my husband they would look into it but nothing changed. They acted like it was no big deal, said it was just kids having fun. We won't be back. We were extremely disappointed.
