This place was sparkling clean! The location was within walking distance of all downtown activities and only a short drive to areas outside the downtown area. Previous reviews complain about the bus station and the garage door..... my wife and I never heard the garage door unless Er opened the window or balcony door. There is a bus station across the street. It is patrolled by attendants and APD. Asheville has a homeless population like most big cities. We were not once bothered or asked for money. Felt very safe walking at any time. If you’re not comfortable in a city environment then a stay downtown may not be for you, but we loved the walkability and amenities in this side of town! Great place to stay in Asheville!!
