The moment you walk in, you appreciate how spacious, bright and clean the apartment is. You’re grateful for how centrally located you are to all the major attractions. It truly is a lovely apartment. But if you are a light sleeper, be warned that there are two bars - one across the street and another just down the side street. They are very busy with lively patrons hanging outside and going in and out through a very creaky door until about 3am. Delivery trucks, garbage trucks and recycling pick up trucks are active on the streets from 6am to 8am. The bedroom windows open to the building’s inner courtyard which holds garbage dumpsters and recycling bins. Those bins are used quite often during the night from a restaurant below so you will hear large amounts of glass bottles being dumped into the bins. If you are staying during the winter months, I suspect the double windows will completely block all the street sounds. But if the summer weather is unseasonably hot, the windows need to stay open to allow cool air to circulate throughout the apt. Unfortunately the weather and what happens on the streets each evening is beyond anyone’s control.
