Lots of door-banging inside and hearing other occupants talking. Was fairly quiet outside where I was at the south-facing side of the building. pleasant stay. Laundry service? Staff? You must be joking...

The Courtyard Apartments
The apartment was spotless, everything was as planned, and a very late check-in was arranged at the last minute due to ferry delays. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly.
