    The Best Thing You Can Do Is To Talk About This With

    Here is a possible 90-word response: Hi Matt, I'm sorry to hear you've been having problems with noisy flatmates. That sounds really frustrating when you're trying to study or sleep. I think the best thing would be to talk to them and explain how the noise is affecting you. Suggest setting a house rule where noise needs to be kept to a minimum after 9pm so you can focus. You could also ask them to invite friends over less often. If they understand it's interfering with your schedule, they'll hopefully be more considerate. I hope this helps resolve the issue. Let me know if talking to them works or if you need any other advice.
