I used to work late hours on the third floor of a four-story building that housed a comedy club and bar in the basement. The constant noise and distractions made it almost impossible to concentrate.
Basement, not even the ground floor?
Basement. Ground floor was a restaurant, second - 4th were offices.
I have slept above the club and found it so relaxing - the thumping muted music. Even now I like when the neighbors have a party and when we can hear stadium concerts. Not sure why, it’s not exactly white noise, but I enjoy sleeping in that “music nearby but not right here” situation. I think it just makes my brain relax because it thinks things must be ok if there is a party?
Regardless of the floor, you will hear everything once you open any window. Plus there’s closing time when everyone is loud outside and taxis are idling.
