When you book this airbnb, you are in the perfect area, and there is hardly any street noise at all. This is just a short taxi ride, drive, or train ride outside of the city center. Or it would be about a 40 minite walk. My only complaint is that we inquired about parking prior to our arrival and were instructed to park on the street out front for a small fee. However, we learned after about an hour of traveling around, hoping that our vehicle would not be towed, that the parking out front of the building was free. The receptionist could not help us with the parking, there were no signs, and the host did not respond at all to our questions about parking.
