The Foundry Hotel Asheville, Curio Collection by Hilton
The room was spotless! The staff was helpful, polite and professional. The bed, bedding and pillows were SO comfortable! I really appreciate the makeup mirror. Women of a certain age with eyesight the same age as I am appreciate magnification!

Moxy Asheville
Nice property in a good location. However, we experienced some maintenance issues as the shower handle kept coming completely off & the latch on the barn door leading into the bathroom was broken so the door would not stay closed. Not certain if we would stay here again.
