I remember thinking to myself at 4am that morning, 'Now I understand why sleep deprivation is considered torture!'. We received a free night's stay at a hotel for booking our holiday accommodation with Hotels.com and decided to stay in a central hotel with convenient on street parking.
Our room was neat, clean and tidy. There was a separate area for the bedroom and ensuite, and kitchen and sitting room. The apartment was surprisingly well equipped, there was even a washing machine! Besides that, the kitchen had a stove, microwave, stocked with cutlery and dishwashing liquid.
We thought we would be safe from any noise or disturbance from the night club downstairs since our room was on the highest floor but unfortunately, we were mistaken. At 11pm when we got back, the music had already started in the nightclub and wafted upwards from the lane that is Bank Place to our room.
It was worse the earlier it got in the morning. I was unable to settle into a deep sleep and remember waking up countless time to look at the clock wondering what time do nightclubs stop operating in the morning.
The loud music finally stopped at 5.30am and now I have learnt two new things - one could go straight from a club to work in the morning and that sleep deprivation is a very effective form of torture.
