You can't go wrong renting this Apt. Even though it is only a block from the lake/Jet d' Eau and has restaurants on it's street, it was quiet when the windows/doors were closed and quiet after 11pm with them open. We were there during the heat wave and kept the blinds & windows closed during the day (you have to secure the curtains closed in the middle as they are not full curtains, we used hair clips). We opened them all at night to cool the apt. I didn't hear anything in the front room with the door closed and my husband did not hear anything in the back bedroom. Fans were provided and that helped too. We enjoyed the little deck each morning for breakfast and seeing the Jet both in the am and at night from the couch. On a side note the grocery stores in the area all close at 6pm and are not open on Sunday's so make sure you plan for that on your 1st day or so. We would defiantly rent this apt again.
