I've noticed that all the embassy suites I've stayed at have the room entry on the (interior) courtyard side, with the "living room" area on the interior side, and the bedroom on the exterior side. If the hotel is not on a busy street, this is OK - but if the hotel is on a busy thoroughfare, this can mean a really loud bedroom when I'm trying to sleep. I like all the other aspects of the embassy suites brand - good service, niice interior courtyard, the breakfasts - but getting these rooms (some with particularly poor soundproofing) abutting a busy street is a real bummer. I'd really prefer it if the bedroom half was on the courtyard side, and the living area was on the street side.

Your thoughts?
