Yeah, we try and avoid waking ours before 10pm, and even then if they object to being woken and try to go back to bed we'll let them. Its not fair to be woken in the middle of your sleeping time, I er... didn't appreciate it... when my friends have sent texts at absurd hours and woken me at 3am, and I don't think its fair to do something similar to the hamsters.
Maybe try and get as quiet a wheel as possible and hope you get used to the other noises? Ours are usually pretty quiet and you do get used to it in the end.
Or yeah, move the hamster out of the room? We missed Scamp when we did that (only did it because we had the space anyway), but it might work fine for you
Oh and yeah, our curtains are very rarely open, it doesn't make a difference to the hamsters. Some of them show their faces once in a while during the day anyway, the others er... don't lol. It all depends on their individual sleeping patterns/habits, and we leave those up to the hamsters. Admittedly our curtains let in a lot of light, but even so... Unless you leave your light on all night to make up for the lack of light in the day, at best it will completely ruin their sleeping pattern and lead to them waking/sleeping at really random times, at worst it won't achieve anything, and either way you risk making them miserable.
If you really work at it you can change to make animals diurnal - but only by changing lighting times so that they get light at night and dark at day (and doing it an hours difference a day really helps with that change). Experiments have been done that prove it, but if they get constant darkness they just end up with completely sporadic, random sleeping times and no consistency at all.
