The cottage was great! The host gave us a tour of the property and was very informative. The cottage has convenient check in windows for early or late arrivals. This hostel was a lovely place to stay with friendly travelers from all over. The cottage itself was nice, clean and in a great location! West Asheville is pretty funky and a ton of fun. The Hostel is on a great street with tons of restaurants and bars all around. I would love to stay here again and highly recommend it!
