Nice and bustling sometimes also noisy but that's not the residents' fault haha." Another resident notes: "It's a nice area to live in. The location is pleasant, but it's the centre so there's almost always noise pollution." The same reviewer adds that the surroundings aren't very hygienic, with restaurants dumping waste in the alleys.
