ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

We did the same, with the same result.I asked for a Medium room on the ground floor and got neither
Not looking forward to the stairs, we have three amps weighing 32kg a piece to haul up there, plus speakers.

There are always lots of willing hands to help move gear - just raise your voice in reception and ask.
