Disliked: Cleanliness
Pros: Room configuration is great, apartment style we had a 2 bed 2 bath, full kitchen living room and balcony. Gas fireplace. Location is good. Cons: we had no housekeeping the entire stay eventhough they state you will get fresh towels and trash removal daily. First day we returned and noone had come by, day two same thing. Called first thing in the morning to advise and also our fireplace was not working. We were assured they would come by. Same story, noone showed up. They sent the front desk gentleman Deonte on two separate nights to bring towels and remove trash. He also got the fireplace to work. He was very courteous (he also checked us in) and apologetic. Next day they threw the towels on the sink and only emptied the kitchen trash, no bathroom removal. Unit was not very clean, bathrooms loaded with mildew. Cups dirty inside cupboard, no dish tabs available to run the dishwasher. Stove had baked on gunk and crumbs from previous guests, as well as the toaster was filthy. Washer in bedroom was full of mold as well. Upon check out, the young lady who helped me was very short, no good morning, no how was your stay, just "do you want a receipt" I said happy new year as she handed me the paper , no response. Maybe when they chamge the facility name there is new ownership and better staff education/training in hospitality and hoisekeeping.

I liked the spacious 2BR suite, and the working fireplace on a chilly night. We were able to park near our room, which was convenient for unloading. The place was quiet, and we rested well. If I could change anything, it would be softer pillows and a noon checkout. I'd stay here again!

The cleanliness in our first room left something to be desired. And the bedbug carcass I found inspection was unsettling. I contacted the Management and they did move us to a clean room in a different tower that did not find any evidence of critters in room was spacious and well appointed, however Even in the new room, I had to wash the dirty dishes in the cupboards and the vents in the ceilings were covered in dust

It would be impossible for me to put into words how fantastic of a deal this place was. I had originally booked in a different local hotel and was disappointed with the room. I am staying in Asheville for three nights and fortunately, the first hotel refunded me the first night so I could stay somewhere else for the next two. The residence is only cost me a little bit more and it was a world of difference. This place gives you a luxury one bedroom or two bedroom condo with a deep, hot tub king size bed full kitchen. I cannot understand why anybody would stay anywhere else other than this place when coming to Asheville except for that, they don’t know about it. I had considered the residences before booking originally and thought it was too good to be true, but it’s not. I am proud to endorse this place and would tell anybody I know or care about not to give it a second thought.

Evening front desk staff at check-in was excellent, Friendly and helpful, as were the reservation staff on the phone. 10/10! Front desk staff during the day were not reachable after many attempts, we finally gave up! Rooms were 8/10 on the cleanliness scale, build-up of cleansers on the floors made them feel sticky. Furniture is well worn and not very comfortable. Burnt out lights, couple lamps had shorts in them, kitchen appliance controls were worn off, buttons broken. Internet was slow and dropped out frequently. Needs refurbishing and a DEEP, thorough cleaning, two or three to strip down all the cleaners previously used and get it to a fresh clean again. Was very disappointed based on the price we paid.
