Hammond Stay
This unit is perfect as far as location goes... absolutely walking distance to all the restaurants, etc. Believe the host ,however when you read about train noise. It is very loud and for me, even with ear plugs, woke me up several times. If you want to be close to all the social venues, this is for you, but bring your own ear phones that do the job!

TRAFFIC vehicles and trains
There were no warnings of the noise level. Bedroom was beside the road with loud traffic and a train about every hour seemed like. No warning on the noise in the description before staying. I knew there would be a problem when we had packages of "ear plugs" on the night stand.
