Noisy Building I Would Avoid

Pros

The location is great, management is fairly responsive

Cons

It is the most insanely noisy building ever if you face the orchard st side, mr purple and all the bars downstairs will keep you up all night, there were multiple times were people were lighting fireworks that almost shot into my window, the other side might be okay but not sure
