What it’s like staying with us:
We ain’t fancy, don’t try to be, don’t want to be. If you’re lookin’ for fancy, if you need fancy, you’ll probably wanna go somewhere else.
We only say this because we want you to enjoy your vacation even more than you do. We want you to be happy wherever that is.
We are rough around the edges. Our Asheville hostel & guest house is 100 years old. It’s in decent shape, we try our best to make it pretty… but it is 100 years old.
We are an Asheville hostel downtown. We are young. People here drink and laugh and play music on the front porch and back deck. We have dinner nights with our local friends and new friends who are our guests at our Asheville hostel. We’d love for you to be a part of that.
Sometimes it’s quiet, sometimes it’s not, but we do try to keep it under control. The crowd changes every couple of days, so we make no guarantees about who your hostel-mates will be.
Please be aware of these things as you consider where to stay. Again, we want you to be happy and enjoy your vacation. We hope that it’s with us.
