Question

A person who has a very light sleep, and any small noise wakes him up, is he considered distressed and exempt from sleeping in the sukkah? Is the sukkah kosher for eating, in a way that another person living there could sleep in the sukkah?

Answer

Shalom Rav

The sukkah is kosher.

One who is distressed due to noise is exempt from the sukkah.

Source

Azmera Lishmecha 263:

One who cannot sleep in the sukkah due to noise, such as from the joy of the Beit Hashoeva and similar - if it is a strong noise that would cause him to move to another room, he is exempt from sleeping in the sukkah.
