We were worried about the next door bar which ended up to be a non-issue as we never heard it. However, as the room leads directly to one of the main streets you hear a lot of street noise and you also constantly hear noise from what we only guessed was an industrial refrigerator which is just outside the windows on the neighboring property. All the windows lead to an alley so no views, light or privacy. Bikes which others mentioned in reviews were broken during our stay so don't count on them, you can walk anywhere though. We booked it for the kitchen which was good. All in all we felt the place was ok but overpriced, you can get a better deal on the island.
