Because of this, we couldn't use it when we were in the room and sleep at night was near impossible. The fan we requested and received from our hostess was equally noisy, so still no sleep. This happened while the fires and subsequent smoke made it not feasible to open windows for air relief. Upon a maintenance person checking out the unit, it was proven necessary to replace the entire unit. This was not accomplished during our stay, and as the B & B was full, as well as other convenient accommodations, we were therefore 'forced' to remain where we were. I felt that some discount should have been entertained, but none was forthcoming. I would appreciate your feedback.
