The building works next to G K will be happening for a long time - it's going to be a huge building. And yes, they pour cement until 3 am on occasion. As long as you are not along that side there is minimal noise. I stayed in a double room along that side but with the bathroom at the back & it wasn't too bad for only 2 nights.
I wouldn't consider staying at GK until the building work is finished, and even then I think there still might be noise coming in from that site. I'd wait to read several reports before staying there again.
