loud music ineffective soundproofing
The location proved difficult because a bar nearby played music very late. I could feel the bass even with the windows closed. the air conditioning was off, so it was warm, but opening the windows made the noise unbearable. i did not sleep well those two nights. the soundproofing did not work as expected.
