Location was great but don't expect much from hotel. Wouldn't stay there again. Expected more.
Pros:

location is great and rooms very clean and beds comfortable

Cons:

Staff were not helpful in suggesting restaurants or helpful re booking hop on hop off or suggestions on how to get to Biltmore since we had no car. We were okay using our phones but you guys did say in your welcome email that the staff would be helpful in that regard, Hotel was stark with it's cement floors and XYZ lounge was empty every night. The outside area was cruddy outside the lobby.

One night quick trip to Asheville.
Pros:

Excellent service and friendly staff!! Also, we enjoyed meeting Wednesday, the hotel's foster dog. She is a sweetheart and we pray she finds her forever home soon!

Cons:

The only thing that bothered us about our entire stay was the fact that the alarm clock had been set to 6am by a previous guest and had not been turned off prior to our stay. However, it alarm itself was a lovely strumming guitar so it wasn't so bad.

Great place and perfect location to everything
Pros:

This is a beautiful hotel and the perfect location! It is very dog friendly. In fact they have a little dog station. The bar and lounge area is very roomy and cozy. I ordered food from the bar and it was very good. They have a little cheese cake flight. Beautiful views from your room. Lots of space on the patio for eating or hanging out. The swimming pool is very large. I highly recommend this place.

Great vibe, but also too noisy
Pros:

Nice hotel with a great vibe and perfect location. Room was clean and bedding was comfortable. I would definitely stay there again, but I'd avoid "city view" rooms.

The problem was the noise. The "city view" rooms get a ton of vehicle noise all night. Cars with loud exhausts and loud music at night, then trucks in the pre-dawn. Inside I could hear people in neighboring rooms who were not being loud, and dogs barking. And watch for dog poop around the pool - not everyone cleans up like they should.
