This is my go to place when I’m in and out of Asheville airport. Yes, it is not the high-end hotels, but the management and staff do everything King to make this a convenient, satisfying, and pleasurable stay. The general manager is a lovely person. It’s a very busy hotel and often difficult to get a late check out which is sometimes difficult for me because I have late flight hours the next day, but I still consider this my go to place when I am in and out of Asheville.

Absolutely the worst hotel as far as cleanliness. The rooms were disgusting and the bathroom floors were so nasty . It looked as if the bathroom floors hadn't been cleaned in months and the corners were full of pubic hair and other substances.

This stay was surprisingly good considering the renovation going on. Staff seems. To be doing a good job of keeping things clean despite construction. Our only complaint was the unwillingness to serve more yogurt upon request after other guests had exhausted the yogurt in the refrigerator. Fortunately the eggs were surprisingly good and not like other fake hotel buffet eggs. Staff also accommodated our request for extra towels.

Excellent staff and breakfast. Nice hotel layout. The bed was super comfortable. The bathtub had a bit of mildew and the lap shades were needed replacing. I would stay here again as it is right beside the airport and they have a complimentary shuttle there.

There is no where that says if I live less then 60 miles from the hotel I cannot stay there. I was meeting a friend so they wouldnt have to travel all the way to my town and we got there and were turned away! I was told "we have been trying to update that on our site" but if it isnt on there I should have been able to stay there.
