Nope, very clean, very comfortable, very well isolated against cold, I don't hear what my neighbours are doing at all either (except occasionally for the crying baby in the room upwards, lol). When I'm outside in the hall, if they're listening to music or talking loudly it's perceptible, but as soon as you enter the appartment it turns to pure silence.
And well initially the past renters said that they paid 475$ per month, and when phoning the landlord she appeared to confirm that price. However when I went to her house to sign the lease she said that the rent was for 375$ a month. No clue as to whether this was a mistake from her end or not, or if someone fumbled and gave me erroneous pricing information before, I just signed anyway.
I'm not living in a small town either, these low prices are pretty standard charges for a canadian apartment, save for maybe if you live in select towns like Vancouver.
Prices for rents in say, San Francisco, New York or Boston, well they look surreal in comparison.
