Nice Flat, But Undone by Hostile Downstairs Neighbours and Poor Soundproofing

3.0

Nothing else matters if the basics aren’t right — and unfortunately, the downstairs neighbours made our stay deeply uncomfortable. During our stay, they banged aggressively on the bathroom window with a broom while my wife was showering, and again on the walls at 6am when our toddler woke — she weighs just 10kg, for context on how poor the floor insulation is. It’s not a renter’s responsibility to compensate for inadequate soundproofing, but the neighbour’s response was hostile and disproportionate. If you don’t want to live below others, don’t. If your building isn’t suited to short lets, address it through the proper channels — but don’t intimidate guests with aggressive behaviour. The flat itself is lovely, but guests should be made aware of the neighbour situation before booking. We packed up to leave early as a result.

− the floor shaking when moving around, its like walking on a trampoline, rattling — not surprised the downstairs neighbours are annoyed — but don’t take it out on renters, make a complaint to the landlord;; or better still buy a house with concrete sub floors. the carpet in the bedroom — carpet, generally, is nasty. and the rug in the lounge.
