SO LOUD! I hate to say that because Lauren's apartment is precious, clean, and in a great location. The beds are comfortable and her thoughtful amenities were so sweet and appreciated. However, there is a 24 hour bar next door that is LOUD, and I am talking loud for a long time. Every night there I keep thinking, "Okay, the band will quit at midnight...1 am?....2,3,....4!" The band played, as though they were in our back yard, until 4 in the morning. Luckily, I brought some ear plugs that dampened the noise a good bit and I brought a noise machine for my daughter. I also left the package of unused plugs in the cute little toiletries box that Lauren provided.....so make good use of them. Again, hate to say something negative because this property was cute and really well cared for. Lauren obviously cares about her guests. The bar next door though is a gigantic bummer if you have small children or plan to turn in early. If you are a party lover that digs live music and you weren't planning to hit the hay before daylight anyway, this is the place for you. Her balcony will be a perfect location for you to enjoy a beer and some music in comfort.
