We were drawn to the location because it was within walking distance of the hub of the city. However, the Maritime Museum just across the way would power wash their big plastic windows all day long. It was very annoying and loud. Also, be aware that there will be loud demolition and construction on the restaurant immediately below the apartment through April. Also, the bars don’t stop playing their music during the weekend until 3am. At least the bar noise can be remedied by closing the doors and turning on the fan. There’s no way to remedy the construction and power washing noise if you want to sit out on the balcony during the day.
So there is good (walking distance and balcony) and bad (noise and disruption) with this apartment.
