Unfortunately, our stay did not meet reasonable expectations for a peaceful accommodation. The property is a basement apartment beneath a wooden house occupied by a family. Due to the construction of the house, noise from the upstairs occupants travels directly into the apartment, making it extremely difficult to rest.Upon our arrival, Aamir informed us that his children usually play until approximately 7:00–8:00 p.m. However, on our very first night, one of the children was screaming, running, and jumping well past 11:00 p.m. Throughout our stay, we were repeatedly disturbed by loud footsteps, constant thumping from children jumping and running, and the front door being slammed late in the evening.On the second night, we contacted Aamir to report that the front door continued to be slammed after 10:00 p.m. He apologized and confirmed that it had been his son. We have a screenshot of this message available as evidence.As we flew back to the Netherlands on 31 July, we needed a good night’s sleep before our journey. Unfortunately, the ongoing noise made this impossible, and we felt we had no alternative but to book a hotel in Halifax for our final night at our own expense.It is very disappointing that the last few days of our 3 week summer vacation were overshadowed by these circumstances. We believe that a basement apartment in a wooden house with a family living directly above is not suitable to guests on vacation.
