The location is ideal. Very easy walking distance to the downtown; area, making it much easier to walk to than drive downtown and find parking and pay for the parking.
We also found the place very quiet even though the host notes downtown and some freeway noise.
We didn't experience any highway noise as the bedroom is on the opposite side of the highway. And we didn't notice any freeway noise from the living area either as there is a common hallway between the highway and the unit.
And we had absolutely no downtown noise. Maybe that's because we used the air conditioning and didn't have the window open, or maybe because we were not there on the weekend. We found the apartment very quiet.
