The word "hardly" used in the sentence has a negative connotation, and it implies that the noise levels in the classroom were excessive and interfering with the learning process. Additionally, the phrase "making too much noise" emphasizes the negative impact of the situation on the speaker's ability to learn and pay attention in class.
