We stayed one night while in town for our daughter’s graduation from UNC-A and absolutely loved it- we only wish we’d had time to stay another night. We booked a King Suite for our family of four and were very comfortable. The bed, bedding, and pillows were all excellent (and we’re picky!). The room was clean, modern, and well furnished. The front desk staff member who checked us in around 10 p.m. was fantastic- very pleasant and welcoming. I didn’t catch his name, but he mentioned he’s originally from Minnesota. Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay and would happily return.

Rooms were clean. Bathrooms are on the small side but it was fine for 2 nights. We didn't hear any road noise from our rooms. The breakfast was okay, a little less options than other Express properties we have stayed in. We would stay here again.

Room was very clean and had good amenities (safe, microwave, minifridge, coffemaker, blower). Good A/C, daily housekeeping. Walls are not that much soundproof as the website states, you can hear people and the housekeepers in the hall and in the room above, but not so early in the morning.Breakfast is awesome, hot and with many options to select from, and the coffee was very good for a hotel. Hotel is in a good, safe area, with an Outback Steakhouse in the backyard and many food options and a supermarket at walking distance. Only 4 minutes to dowtown Asheville. There is plenty of parking spaces. The frontdesk employees are very nice. Didn’t use the pool or jacuzzi, but thwy seem clean and well maintained. Would recommend and stay again.
