poor insulationnoise disturbance

I found the noise insulation to be quite poor, which disrupted my sleep. the people above my room were making a lot of noise between 10 pm and 1 am. i contacted the front desk about it, but they were unable to find where the noise was coming from. it's unfortunate because it was the last night of my trip. I really just wanted some quiet time. it was a real disappointment after an otherwise okay stay.
