~Just my two cents worth - I mostly only comment on places I've seen and or eaten at personally.
I never heard any road noise. I was in room D24. Second floor of the building on the pool side of the resort, if you bisect it down the middle walk way, fourth room from the end of the building nearest the pool. On one occasion I did hear the music from roots, I think the night I was sick, a Sunday night. I also went to bed early a few nights and heard the dj at the resort, but I'd guess that's over with by around 9:30. To me, the noise from my neighbors was more of an inconvenience than any other noise I heard during my stay. It seems that the rooms might have been suites or double bedrooms and they put up walls to separate them into singe rooms. There was a connecting door that was locked, and my bureau was "blocking" the doorway. Security and safety were never an issue, just the noise. Their tv, their phone calls, their conversations... I heard it all. It wouldn't have been so bad if it were someone I knew, but seriously, my biggest pet peeve is hearing other people when I'm in my room. The Hilton at the Boston Airport is really bad!!! I never heard my neighbors at Grand Pineapple in the garden manor building- I really wish they would do a hotel only option. And the Hilton Garden Inn at Charlotte airport is an excellent overnight for the CLT airport. I never heard a thing there.
For next April, I've reserved a cabin room at Yellow Bird. I'm hoping some friends of mine will be able to take the other room in the cabin, seens how they share a common space, but like I said, on short stays, I'm hardly home anyway. I'm hoping Yellow Bird will be a good spot for a longer stay next summer so I'm checking it out in April.
