The apartment is quaint and in a great location. You may hear the bass from the Hookah bar below on Friday and Saturday nights. I can't stand the thumping of bass, but you may not be bothered by it. It is generally pretty quiet at night. Very safe with a locked entrance to the common area and then a locked entrance to this unit. The kitchen was short on utensils and had no kitchen towels or potholders. Also there seemed to be some issues with the internet - Sling kept pausing and locking up for extended period of time. I made Host aware of the issues and hopefully he will look into it.
