After reading several reviews on Tripadvisor and Hotels.com we booked our stay in Asheville here. Although conveniently located with easy access to restaurants, the interstate, and the Biltmore, it wasn't worth the high ratings I reviewed nor the expense. The hotel overall is dated and needs basic cosmetic work (like paint), new floors, and redecorating. The room itself was rather small (for the price), not very clean (the carpets were so dirty we couldn't walk around in our socks without them becoming soiled). The bathroom really needed a good cleaning, which it obviously didn't get before we arrived. The curtains allowed way too much street light into the room at night so I had to employ a hair clip to hold them shut in the middle and stuff towels below them to keep out the light. The best thing about the room was the king-sized bed - very comfortable and supportive. The exterior landscaping was full of garbage. I was charged $22/night to bring my small dog and there was only one very small area in which to walk her which wasn't well lit (obviously other folks staying there didn't avail themselves of the doggie trash can because the area was littered with dog excrement). Additionally the breakfast offerings, less an apple, had to healthy options. I felt for the cost if was way overpriced.
