I was at one of our hotels where I noticed that the F/O and I got rooms at the far end of the hallway away from the elevators. Nice and quiet. The next morning I asked the front desk if they do that on purpose and at first he got very defensive with me until I told him that I liked that set-up. He said the Flight Attendants complain constantly about rooms at the end of hallways, particularly near Exit stairs because they feel it makes them more suceptible to attacks....never would have even thought of it that way.
