"Speak with Vicki, and she'll give you a good bed for the night" "most of the rooms are off the communal kitchen area so there is some muffled noise if people talk loudly." "Not near the main communal area or next to a toilet." "Maybe don't take the room right next to the bathroom. Toilet flushing & refilling is pretty loud."
