This hotel is right in Commercial Street which we thought would be great for walking around Provincetown. However it has a big front porch with a row of seating which is apparently open to guests all night long with no curfew. We were assigned the room right off the lobby, immediately on the front porch. There was a large group that planted themselves on the porch and they proceeded to party on the porch until almost 2:00 am. They came in and out of the lobby all night, yelling to each other as they came and went back out. We texted the property owner who lives on the premises and never received a response. Needless to say it was impossible to sleep. The owner knew it was Bear Week in town and he knew there would be a lot of partying (which we were fine with, we would just hope the owner would have left that room empty knowing the guests would not be able to rest at night. And if they want to generate income from the room they should enforce a curfew for use of the porch after a reasonable hour. We requested another room at 12:22 am (after listening to the noise for hours) and received no response. We should not have been charged for a room in which he knew we were subjected to excessive noise until 2 in the morning. Thus was noise taking place ON the property.
