Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lawrence, an IHG Hotel

This hotel was fine aside from our specific room. We are a family of six, so we got a suite. Unfortunately this one was located directly above the front doors. It was very loud and woke everyone up throughout the night. Every time the doors opened the were loud thunks. A basketball team arrived around midnight - the bus itself was very loud, and we could distinctly hear every person wheeling their suitcase across the bricks driveway. In the morning we talked with the front desk person about our experience, and she said they always get complaints about that room. That was really disappointing to hear - the hotel is clearly aware that room has a major sound problem, but aren't doing anything to fix it. We didn't get a lot of sleep and had a long day of driving ahead of us. Again, overall the property seemed fine and we have happily used this hotel chain before. Just a really disappointing experience with this room. Please soundproof that front window or stop renting it out. It's impossible to sleep there.
