It’s called Travelers Rest and I didnt get a good rest. There were only 5 cars in the carpark, 3 of which I'm guessing were staff cars, one was my car and one was another guest. From the whole hotel they put me in a room opposite the other guests which sounded like a large, VERY loud family with a dog. I woke up everytime time I left and entered the room as the walls here are paper thin. I could hear their TV all night and i'm confused why the staff did not space out the guests correctly. Noise was a major issue from the other guests and the kitchen sounds. Also no iron, I asked for an iron there was none provided.

Close to amenities. The property is dated and no one cleans under the bed. No service of the room. Poor repair work in bathroom. The air conditioner is noisy and the fan squealed until it stopped. Once reset it worked again.
