The Acorn is a really clean, safe motel with the most kind and professional owners/staff! Our whole stay was wonderful, from how comfy the beds are and how clean the room was, to how kind and helpful the owners were to accommodate us! I would 100% recommend this motel to single travelers, couples, or families looking for a safe, cozy, and clean place to stay that is also a great value!

Parking was easy and secure. Convenient location and close to my dad, retired vet, that I take to the VA for medical appointments when coming to do a wellness check on him. My stay was pleasant, staff were nice, and it was quiet, which I truly enjoyed. The only noise was the traffic on the road. Room was clean and bed comfortable. Would stay again.

The room had been remodeled to include a fresh paint vinyl plank flooring. However, the bathroom shower/tub was moldy, and the front door didn’t lock securely. The walls are paper thin to the point where you can hear full conversations in the rooms next to you. Not great when you have amorous neighbors. The parking was easy since it’s a drive up motel. The front desk staff were very nice. The clientele that frequent the hotel are scary. Would not recommend for a solo traveler and really wouldn’t recommend for anyone.

This has been my regular place to stay since I have been traveling here for work. The rooms have been recently refurbished and always clean. Black Mountain is a cool small mountain community town with nice shops and restaurants to visit. Asheville is only about 15 minutes away making it well worth it as a place to stay.
