This apartment is immediately below Laura's residence, and the noise from above was more of a factor than we'd anticipated. My wife is a lighter sleeper than I, and was not too happy with the sleep she got on two of the four nights of our stay. There may not be much to be done about this situation (more sound insulation may not be possible, or prohibitively expensive), but, as I said, it had more of an impact on our experience than we would have liked. In all other respects, this was an excellent stay.
