We found our room was extremely noisy. High road noise and a very loud helicopter taking off and landing at the hospital across the road. The helicopter operated both nights of our stay.

Was very convenient to the hospital which is what I wanted. Also gave me a late check out which helped as my husband wasn't discharged until midday.
