Check-in was a snap. They made me feel welcome and showed me around the hostel and to the cottage. PonPaul + Sharkey's is located in the great Westville area. Lots to do and see within walking distance. I was in town for one night and just needed a place to ground my gear, lay my head, and get cleaned up the next day. The Cottage was perfect. Everything worked, everything was cozy and everything was near by. Parking is right there and easy. I will stay here again when visiting Asheville.
