What guests flagged

Street noise at nightnoise

Guests hear groups outside from around 9 PM to midnight. The listing itself warns about this and provides earplugs. Reviews from five-star guests mention it alongside praise, so it is confirmed but minor.

Steep stairs to unitaccess

Several reviews describe the staircase as very steep and unsuitable for elderly or mobility-impaired guests. The listing text also warns about this directly.

Listing vs. guest experience

Phrases from the listing, or wording that recurs in reviews, beside what guests went on to describe. The counts are the ones above.

lively entertainment district
Bars and restaurants below the window with noise into the night. The listing text itself names this directly.
Trend
Not enough history

Only 15 reviews in the last year, against 234 before. Too few new ones to say whether anything has changed.
