It's all fine but nothing special. There is some nuisance from youths, and often litter on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in Coolhaven! Opposite a school, which is really nice because it always gives a cosy atmosphere and I don't really have much trouble with noise. I live in a studio and prefer neighbours and a green view; at first there was quite a lot of construction but now that has also decreased a lot.

About Kapelstraat 121, Rotterdam
The rent of €2,700 is 20% above the neighbourhood average of €2,250, but the apartment is also smaller than average (98 m² vs 144 m²). The price per m² works out to about €27.55, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €17.30 per m². So it's on the high side, but the energy label A and central location may justify the premium.
