This is already pointed out and told you should expect this. So do expect to hear noise of people living their daily lives and some animals too. I didn't mind the noise or the sounds of animals. But they provide you with ear plugs and a Bluetooth speaker. We were gone most of the time during the day but, when we came back I tried to be considerate and not make too much noise either around nightime. I enjoyed the space it was cozy and inviting. It's a place with all you need for a short trip that's affordable and comfy in the cities. The pillows they provided were amazing I love memory foam pillows. The bed was comfy and spacious enough for my guest and me. There is no TV but, it clearly shows that. I loved the option of the coffee or tea. She was super sweet and left us condiments like creamer and jam in the fridge, also little biscuit things too. The organics recycling part exceptionatly made me all warm and fuzzy inside. It was perfectly explained how it all worked too. It was fun and nice to teach my guest how to use it. Since I love to try to be proactive in caring for the planet and treating it right. Since of Covid of course you can't socialize but, I would of loved to with them. I enjoyed my stay very much. I liked the ability to walk to a couple places around the place but it's not just a six minute walk I will say that. So keep that in mind.
