The neighborhood was quiet as other posters have mentioned, which is one reason I chose to stay here. I am a light sleeper so quiet is important. Unfortunately since it's an old house, many of the floors creak, and doors need to be shut hard, and being all wooden floors through out these sounds echo through the whole floor. I was woken up several times by people going to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and leaving for work at 5:30 in the morning. Needless to say, the location was great, Charles was great, food was close by, I just didn't get good rest on my work trip due to my light sleeper nature. You win some, you lose some.
