There are only four apartments in the building and the owner and her family live across the hall in one of the units. This is a wood frame building and when you are upstairs in the hallway it feels more like you are in the hallway of a large home. That also means that noise travels and we can hear each other from our apartments when people are walking or talking in the hallways. Once you are inside the apartment noise is not an issue and normal volumes of talking and music are unnoticeable from other units.
