main square street noise

The location was near the main square. Getting around was very convenient because of the metro. IT was always lively outside , so it felt safer as there were usually people around.

I could hear street noise through my earplugs until 5am , then housekeeping and other guests opening and closing doors at all hours due to the echoing in the hallway.
