Sophie's place is a wonderful downtown apartment. It is comfortable and roomy, and very conveniently located. I stayed there for almost a full month and would stay there again. On weekends, there is some street noise from nearby bars and clubs and people who are walking by. If you're looking for a very quiet place, that might be something to keep in mind. But I'm a light sleeper myself, and I simply used earplugs and had no trouble sleeping. I also loved the big windows and high ceilings that kept the apartment sunny and warm.
