The hotel was very clean and well-appointed from lobby to guestroom, with exceptionally friendly staff. The dinner menu was limited on account of the impacts of Hurricane Helene on staffing, but other than that you'd never know a disaster had impacted them. Breakfast was fast, friendly, and delicious.
It was a great location for getting to Biltmore (8 min drive), and a five minute walk to small store shopping and restaurants. Valet parking was mandatory, yet convenient, friendly, fast, and honest. They even pulled my car up the night before so I could leave before their 6am opening time. I would absolutely stay here again, and recommend it to friends. It was also adjacent to the highway, making it easy to find after a long drive in. There was no highway noise in the lobby or my 6th floor room.
The bathroom was so clean, with a gorgeous walk-in shower with dual head sprayers--the type that makes you think about renovating your own bathroom!
Thank you all; it was a great stay!
