I felt compelled to share this review since I was surprised ratings were so high and figured there was some missing information. Yes, the Old 77 is charming, but it s also impossible to sleep in. It was by far the creakiest hotel, maybe building, that I ve ever been in. The floorboards in my room were so loud from creaking, I was actually laughing from embarrassment. A short walk to the bathroom would wake my boyfriend, and even a shift in my weight while standing created a startling noise. More, the people above me had the same situation, so I could hear them walking back and forth all night. It was so bad that I was embarrassed to even walk around in fear of bothering the people below us and beelined out the door the next morning (with very little sleep) as soon as possible. More to note, we were right outside the cleaning staffs closet and the ice machine and definitely heard loud conversations from the staff starting from 7am on. We were booked for two more nights, but turned down an upgrade and asked for a full refund the next morning. Neither one of us were willing to take a chance on another room.
