About 4am Monday, a 28-year-old man told police he was shot after three men called him outside.
The victim, who's injuries were not life-threatening, lives near the Envy nightclub in the Mayfair building. Four a.m. is the club's closing time.
Later Monday morning, 10 of the 24 guests at the El Greco hotel, which is opposite the nightclub, left because they did not feel safe there.
The guests told staff that they had been solicited by prostitutes and that music from the club had kept them awake at night.
Owner of the Mayfair building, Keith Aranaj, said the club is licensed to operate until 4am.
Aranaj said: "Since the nightclub opened people have complained about the noise and I can't blame them for that but they should talk to the woman who rents the place and they should come to some understanding.
Police say they have no evidence of prostitution in the area but are following leads in the shooting matter.
