I was lucky to have quiet people in my room (I was the one coming home late!! Eek!!) but the noise from the rooftop lounge (which is beautiful) was loud. The other guests can be loud also, mostly because of the wide range of people staying there. What you see is what you get but also there are no resources in the bathroom (soap etc...) still amazing and right by everything Downton. Also good if you’re going north, the traffic patterns were manageable.
