When was your outbound?they opened a new lounge for Zain (mobile operator) customers last week,so it might the reason for noise.
Sorry about the wrong info about showers than,it seems that it was indeed an exception for me,or because the member of staff in question was.
In regards to the crown check in lounge,it is indeed good,one of the best J check in areas I have ever seen.
How was your flight?
