I live in a building that is split into two flats. I live downstairs with my two kids and my upstairs neighbours are two boys in their early twenties/late teens.
Firstly the main issue is that the floors are horrendous here and sound travels through them like they were paper so I can usually hear them walking around their flat - that's not their fault and I'm not annoyed about that.
What is bothering me is that 2-3 times a month they bring friends back and have parties that go on til 5am with people shouting and screaming. I'm fairly certain their living room is above my bedroom which doesn't help, plus they have drunk friends coming and going that keep banging on my door - this woke my 5 year old up at 2:40 am this morning.
I get it, they are young lads and I'm not expecting them to be in bed by 9pm but I just think making that kind of noise til 5am is not fair. I've already spoken to them once in a really friendly manner, just pointed out their living room was above my bedroom and could they keep that in mind when they have parties. It's woken me up twice tonight and I'm pissed off. Whatever i do I'll need to do it directly because I'm the only neighbour they have so if i complain to the landlord they'll know it was me and I don't want any ill feeling.
I'm wondering if I should ask them to give me a heads up when they are planning a party so I can at least send the kids elsewhere? Any suggestions??
