No, as in we always books suites. If the suite is on a lower floor we will ask for a higher one.
That said, I have generally asked for a high floor, quiet suite in the category I have booked yet some hotels still manage to fail to honour these requests.
Typical culprit is the FS Cairo at the First Residence. We book the same suite category on every stay. They know our preferred room number and I request it every time, yet on every other stay it's a lower floor with a different view point. We have always managed to get an appropriate room after a wait.
