dangling cables noisy environment

I found a few things lacking. The room needed some updating. I noticed several cables dangling from under the TV, including a booster aerial. I couldn't find a spoon to stir my tea or coffee either. The noise level was also an issue. Someone near reception was shouting on their phone late into the night, for about an hour.
