I heard what I imagine were similar noises, got the same story,
and hotel staff (not the front desk) confirmed it was hotel
maintenance.
Either way, city construction on a long-planned project that has
apparently been going on for more than a year is not exactly an
act of G-d. While emergencies are another matter entirely, I
suggest that, if the hotel promises "no construction" and means
"except for city projects and/or things the city makes us do",
they are being disingenuous is not outright deceptive.
