Unfortunately the apartment is very noisy because of its position and the fact that the windows are only single glazed. We stayed 4 nights and we were woken up 4/5 times every night to the sound of cars on cobbled streets, motor bikes, people shouting out. The apartment is on a busy junction. My girlfriend lives in Brooklyn on a busy street and is used to sleeping with earplugs but she was unable to sleep here even with earplugs. I would only recommend this apartment to very heavy sleepers who can sleep through a lot of noise
