Eventhough I lived upstairs, the noisy flooring made it irritating to walk around for normal activities. I expect anyone below me hated my movements even more. The window in the bedroom caused all noises outside to be easily heard, especially conversations and the very early morning trash pick ups (at least you will be awake in time for Monday morning classes). I did not have the luxery of scoping out apartments before arriving, but have since not renewed my lease and found a better apartment close by.
Pros: Location to campus
Cons: Old style and feel, noisy inside and out
