The apartment we lived in was nice and clean, there was no problem with it, but the noises was terrible.... The room facing the street was horrible, you could hear the traffic all night, you could barely sleep. The shutter's box (above the window) is not sound proofed, it was as if the window was open during the night. The other room overlooking the garden is very noisy also because of the neighbours. You could hear everything from them late at night and also very early in the morning. (conversation, microwave off sound, chairs pulling, kitchen noises, shower - water .....). If I knew in Italian I would have understood what they said next door. Many noises can be heard from the neighbours above also. We had long trips every day, when we got home late at night we wanted to relax but it was not possible becasue of the noises. It was terrible. I travel quite a lot, but I have never experienced so much noises yet. The apartment was nice and clean, there was no problem with it.
