I want to put a bad review so no one else will come find this amazing gem, but I can't! It is simply a breathtaking view! The rooms are clean and bed super comfortable.

First, let's be clear...this hotel is not in downtown Asheville. It is located over a mile east of downtown. Those wishing to stay downtown Asheville should look for a different choice. The hotel itself was clean and well decorated. The beds in the room that my wife and I stayed in were very comfortable. ...

Just absolutely amazing. I am in the travel industry and was over joyed about just about everything at this property. We traveled there in early October, it was busy but didn’t feel over-run. The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. No reason, at all, to leave property for meals - we did visit ...

It was the perfect place for our trip with our dog. The place was spotless and the location very convenient with parking behind the building, even though a bit noisy due to the highway traffic nearby. Great communication and very easy to check in and to access the unit.

Poor service at Legend’s Restaurant
We did not use the pool therefore did not rate it. We did use the restaurant on property, Legends, and would have rated the service as poor to average during our recent stay. We attempted to call in a carry out order and no one picked up the phone. Then we drove to the restaurant to place the order ...

We saw lots of great places to check out but unfortunately we were there on a Sunday...nothing much is open. We ate at pig &grits the first day..super good then Lil Smokey's Sunday..it's all we could find open..was good too.

5/5 - Excellent

The town square is within walking distance and has the cutest shops and some very good eateries. Mountains are the awesome backdrop for this town so I suggest the 3rd or 4th week in October to visit.

5/5 - Excellent

We were traveling the Blue Ridge Parkway and this was a little further away than I thought it would be. Still a wonderful place to stay.
