Road noise is outrageous for rooms right next to the main roadway, next to the property! I'm confident that the other rooms are far more quite and acceptable.

This was a great place to stay for one night on our drive up to Nelson. The only thing that let it down for us is that the unit we had was an upstairs one fronting the road and was very noisy - especially with trucks traveling up and down the road all through the night (and some inconsiderate drivers using their engine brakes).
