The Opal was perfect for our Asheville stay. We wanted to be close to downtown and breweries and you couldn’t have picked a better location. The free coffee every morning at Farewell was great and our son loved the quiches they made as well. Our only comment is that there is no reserved parking, so just be cognizant of that when you decide to come and go incase it’s hard to find a parking spot when you come back. For the most part, you don’t need to take your car around if you are doing activities in town. 100% we would stay here next time we come to Asheville!
