    Designed like a megaphone. All the noise from the heaviest traffic area (lobby and elevators) is aimed directly down both main corridors of rooms. And my room faced the traffic. Not quiet, not restful. Perhaps the farther rooms unengaged from traffic would be better

    Well, the first room they have us had a horrible smell. They then gave us a room on the freeway side which is loud with traffic noise.
