TL;DR

Booking a standard room may land you in the old wing facing construction or a road. At minimum, request a garden-view room to avoid unpleasant surroundings.

What the community said

The hotel courtyard is split: the right side faces active construction, while the left side has a garden. Beyond the garden is a local road (not a highway), so noise is moderate.

Left side = garden, right side = construction

The old wing along the road is problematic — renovation work may be ongoing even while guests are checked in. Hotels deliberately fill it with standard bookings.

Old wing along the road — avoid

Booking a basic standard room carries a high risk of getting a construction or road view. To avoid this, pay extra or specifically select a garden-view room category.
