The new modern updates were great but the hotels description said the place was pretty soundproof. This is not true as you can hear almost everything. I could hear full conversations from people in the hallway and the room next door. The person next door had a bunch of "fun" with someone they brought to the room which lasted until 1am. I had to sleep with noise canceling headphones. The staff was great and friendly but walls are thin
