Surprisingly a breath of fresh air amid Greenville's constantly changing "trendy" spots. Makayla makes an amazing fig and maple coffee that truly sets the Fall tone without what's become the expected Pumpkin or Apple flavors of Fall. I had it iced and it was perfect while visiting the downstairs common areas enjoying the featured artist - would actually love this drink year round as a substitute for Chai. Current artist work featured is mixed media from Maggie MacDonald whose pieces can truly take you to places reminiscent of sandy beaches or beautiful natural gardens that the great Frederick Law Olmsted would have created and strolled. Beside each art piece, the artist has included beautifully written poetry. Immaculately clean with very kind staff. Looking forward to returning soon!

Dorm style room

Modal was the hands down the nicest hostel Ive ever stayed in! My partner and I stayed in a 4 person dorm with two friends. Everything was clean, updated, and stylish. We had our own bathroom with a rainforest shower, and they supplied shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, towels, and vanity kits. The beds were ridiculously comfortable, and each had a curtain for privacy and to keep out light. The hostel had a lovely kitchen, common area, and deck. There was breakfast in the morning, snacks and drinks available for purchase, and a cute coffee shop on site. Great location (we walked to dinner) and easy parking. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The walls were full of art. The vibe was immaculate.

We had the Lavender Mocha and the Spicy Mexican Mocha!

From NICE to NIGHTMARE! Don't try to call, email or text any…read morepre-trip questions. They don't answer. My hubby & I stayed 4 nights. 1st 3 happy. No staff, but room clean & we got access code on check in day. Night 3 we return to room 10:40pm tired as heck, room access pad dead. Text, then call emergency # on kitchen board. Straight to full maibox. Within 10mins I get a call. Lady tries to help to no avail. Says will call me back. After 15 mins I text again. Hubby has to pee, no other bathrooms. She texts maintenance will be here 20-30mins! I text that is unacceptable as It's already been an HOUR! I NEVER GET A RESPONSE AFTER THAT. 1.5 hours after I spoke to host, 2 guys show up, retrieve cup of 20 keys in kitchen, none marked, none work. Guy tries to get keypad off with some tool, NOPE! Asks his assistant to "google photo" the lock & now asking google how to get in when keypad dead. Seems to be reading reddit responses, 1 of which is "get a ladder" - they laugh. Out to truck to get crow bar. Takes 2 of them to RIP keypad off leaving HOLE IN DOOR. it's 1:30am. (We called her at 10:40pm) I text host we are in. No answer. Guy says he'll get a slide lock so we can lock door. Comes back with another door handle and key and says, so you can lock it from ouside, leaves key on table. In morning, I attempt to open our door to go for breakfast and IT'S LOCKED FROM OUTSIDE & KEY IS IN ROOM!!! The door handle he put in has no lock button on inside!! I basically pull with all my might since the hole he put in door is so large and door finally opens!! I text the host that maintenance LOCKED US IN ROOM, but we pulled it open and now there is no way to lock the door without getting locked in. No answer! At breakfast, there is sign on dishwasher "BROKEN" and there are no coffee cups, only what was in our room. The spoons in the drawer are not clean (have yogurt left on them). I go upstairs and get my coffee cup from yesterday and use that. We LEAVE OUR ROOM OPEN AND AJAR so we can get back in, and SLEEP WITH A BOOK in door frame so we DON'T GET LOCKED IN AGAIN! Ladies across hall, 2 middle aged sisters and their mom celebrating mom's birthday, said their pull out couch would not pull out, and they got no response when texted the number or called, so just slept on top of skinny couch. Owners CLEARLY DON'T CARE ABOUT THIS INN in a WONDERFUL LOCATION IN A BEAUTIFUL CITY. I NEVER GOT ANY RESPONSE AFTER MY TEXT THAT 30 MINUTES MORE FOR MAINTENANCE WAS UNACCEPTABLE. WE HAD TO LIVE WITH A DAMAGED DOOR WE COULDN'T CLOSE FOR ONE MORE NIGHT AND SLEEP WITH IT OPEN!!!

Main house has no office: no one on site at all: text communication serves for all needs/complaints/questions. A pet peeve -- miscellaneous and too little silverware and crockery.

I am a pretty big guy but fit comfortably on the extended twin mattress. The mattress left something to be desired , but ultimately I slept better than I normally do at hotels because after 11:00, lights go out and it is quiet hours, which all of the other residents abide by. You can't beat the price and location, in the heart of the tourist district, just blocks from the drum circle park and Harrahs arena.

Sweet Peas offers a great product: great price, great location, and good clean, safe, lodging…read more I think its fair to say the following: Asheville is a tourist destination-and lots of people come to Asheville for many different reasons, and everyone needs lodging. With most homeowners prohibited by local zoning to rent out their homes via Airbnb for short term stays, and with limited hotels within the downtown area, Sweet Peas provides travelers with surprisingly affordable lodging for those seeking an alternative to the chain hotels. Sweet Peas is right downtown, in the midst of the all the things that brings one to Asheville: shopping, music, sports, outdoor fun, and...food-you are in walking distance to any and all of these pleasures you seek. I'm a repeat visitor. It's an ideal spot for me when I visit town 3-5 times a year for the price and location. If you have stayed in a hostel before, you know this is a decent hostel. If you haven't, please-don't compare to a hotel. There are varieties of ages present-young, middle, old, all here for different reasons. There will be people to build community with, or, you can hide in your bunk-and that's ok. There is no alcohol allowed, and quiet times between 11 pm and 7 am. The staff are friendly, efficient, and will provide you towels etc. There is a fridge (but know its usually pretty full) and coffee pot and kitchen area. I've found when traveling, its best to travel hopefully, and I've also found then when staying at a hostel, remain hopeful and positive, and you'll love your experience when doing so. My next visit is in a couple of weeks, and I look forward to the respite of Sweet Peas.

We continued to follow them the next few years on some of their adventures and actually got to support them for a day when they did a thru hike of the Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. Their hostel is such a warm and comfortable space, and they are such gracious hosts. They shuttled us around town when we needed it, they told us all about the area, gave great suggestions of places to see, and they even made arrangements for me with a local fly fishing guide! This was such a great stop on our journey and Franklin is such a cool area with lots to do. When talking to them about why they started a hostel, they said they wanted to support the hiking community and wanted to make a hostel that checked all of the boxes of things they were looking for in a hostel through the eyes of a thru hiker. We are not thru hikers but I think they have accomplished that and then some!

The Lion and the Rose has the potential to be a charming historic stay, and the owners themselves…read morewere friendly and hospitable. However, the biggest issue is that the property does not currently reflect the photos shown online. When we arrived around 1pm, there was no one available to check us in and no answer when we called. We ended up leaving and returning a couple of hours later after finally hearing back. While waiting on the porch, we noticed several items left out--loose baseboard trim, a broom, a bag of cement, and a detached flexible downspout in the walkway--which immediately gave the impression that the property wasn't being actively maintained. The outdoor areas continued that theme. The side yard and fire pit area looked like they hadn't been used or maintained in some time, with weeds growing through the pebble ground, empty or dead plant pots, and older or broken furniture visible around the property. Inside, there are some pieces that reflect the historic character of the home, but the overall decor felt inconsistent. Some furnishings fit the period, while others felt more like standard, dated pieces that didn't contribute to the charm the property is marketed on. For the price, we expected a more polished and cohesive experience--especially when compared to nearby properties like The Black Walnut Bed & Breakfast, which appeared noticeably well maintained. Overall, we left feeling that the listing photos--many of which appear to be from prior ownership--don't accurately represent the current condition. With attention to upkeep and updated photos, this could be a much stronger experience.

This is a lovely inn in a beautiful neighborhood. Innkeepers Karen and Steve were warmly…read moreaccommodating to my request to eat breakfast outside on the porch instead of indoors (I remain Covid cautious) and my sister's special dietary needs. And they kindly had our room ready early for my husband and me because our plane arrived several hours before check in. Karen also had helpful advice on things to see in and around Asheville. Our room was spacious, pretty, quiet, and relaxing. My sister had an adjoining smaller room and it was fun in the evenings to keep the door open before we went to sleep. Sitting on the inn porch in the evenings was delightful. We chose to stay in Montford instead of right downtown at the suggestion of a local friend. While you can't walk outside and immediately have a dozen restaurants around within a few blocks, there are a couple of good restaurants within a few minutes walk and downtown starts 10 or 15 minutes walk away. In return, you get a quieter leafy neighborhood with lovely architecture that's nice for a morning stroll. Plus we got restaurant delivery a couple of times and ate on the inn porch! Note that rooms are on the 2nd or 3rd floor, and there are stairs up to the main entrance. None of us are young and we were fine, but FYI I didn't see any elevators or chair lifts, so I believe you do need to be OK going up and down stairs. Steve was happy to help with luggage, though. Highly recommend The Lion and the Rose.
