    This is my first time ever staying in a hostel before and I am so impressed... Are first I didn't understand it or was a little nervous but once the owners talked to me and everyone was so friendly, I got unshy really quick!!! Perfect location to whatever you're desiring to do in town and if its further then it's just a short bus ride to anywhere... I've never met Kinder people in my life and never felt so welcome somewhere! I wish I could give it 1000 stars... thank y'all so much ❤

    Super easy check in and check out process. They also have towels available. Beds were comfy as well, bathrooms were very clean. Decor and place is beautiful, obvious it is well-maintained.

    Location and clean

    This was a good place to stay for a night at a very reasonable low cost. I was the only female with 3 guys in the mixed dorm. I had a top bunk which wasn't the easiest to climb into (rungs were spaced further apart than typical) but it was comfortable and I would book again.

    Good location, friendly staff and self check in Nothing to refer that i didn’t like

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Very welcoming, clean facilities, plenty of amenities such as full kitchen with silverware and spices, and excellent location to bars and shops in Asheville I wouldn’t change anything!

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    I liked the vibe of the property. There was an arcade bar a few minutes walk from the property.

    Nothing. It was great!

    Bed was too soft. Y

    Tucked away from the main hostel. Private enough. Parking is very tight but manageable. Bottom right corner of the bed frame destroyed my leg all weekend and shower space is insanely small.

    Colorful, unique, close to a lot, walkable N/a

    The location was perfect. I was there to get a tattoo and traveled all the way from TN. I loved roaming through Asheville, it felt like a second home to me. The community is incredible and I definitely want to come back!

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    The easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Very comfortable rooms and so affordable!

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    The friendliness and price .

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    The location is excellent, but the inside of the hostel doesn't disappoint either--the kitchen was well equipped and all common spaces and bunks were clean, and there was a lovely lived-in charm to the whole space.

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    Love the home decor inside and out!! Didn’t have time to dislike anything because we were only there for about 10 hours.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    The location is amazing. Easy access to food and entertainment. It was never a problem but we were always nervous about limited parking.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    A cute place for 20-something years old to stay if you just want somewhere to sleep

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    I loved the funky, homey vibes, and the location was incredible. The staff and all the other folks staying there were also super nice. I’m not sure if either of these can be helped, but I would love better parking and a better outlet situation in the private room. There was only enough outlets to plug two devices in at a time and I found my plugs had a difficult time staying in the outlet.
