Gloria’s apartment is lovely and clean. The building is lovely too and the neighborhood is convenient and attractive. Unfortunately, Gloria did not reveal the fact that there is major work being done on the building which creates a lack of privacy and a great deal of noise. Other tenants told us that the scaffolding around the building has been up since January with no sign of it coming down soon. The scaffolding closed in our front balcony and workmen were often right outside our living room. Workmen were also doing work in the air shaft. They were hanging on ropes and making quite a lot of noise. Naps and quiet time during the day was impossible. Being there was very eventful because of the workmen. We stayed for two weeks, so we had to deal with this for an extended period. It was unfortunate.
