Not quiet!
For our birthday trip with my sister this year, we chose to stay at a Loew property for the fifth time. Unfortunately, maintenance work began early in the room next door. The worker mentioned he could start later, but I wouldn't have booked this stay if I had known I wouldn't be able to sleep in. I'm quite disappointed.

Had to call an engineer as light fittings in the bathroom were hanging down and lights flickering. Sprinkler was just fitted as a hole in the ceiling. Tv would not work (couldn’t even switch it off). The sound of children shouting down the corridors first thing in the morning and at night was not appreciated.

This was our fourth time staying here and it has gone DOWN HILL. Booked rock royalty level and it was not worth it. Got to the hotel early and was told our room would be ready in “a few hours” so we swam for the afternoon. When we checked to see if our room was ready 3hrs later, we were met with the most rude staff who couldn’t answer a simple question. Finally got our room and card didn’t work. They made us wait HOURS. Our room was never cleaned during our entire visit which we felt was intentional because we expressed our frustration. TDLR save your money and stay anywhere else but hard rock.
