Best rooms
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the inner courtyard (south side away from Tarhakuja). These upper floors avoid street-level noise and get better natural light without direct road exposure.

Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor — they sit at street level and pick up traffic noise from Tarhakuja, plus foot traffic from the lobby and breakfast area. Also skip any rooms directly above the main entrance (likely central front) — door slams and late arrivals will disturb sleep.
