Renaissance Asheville Downtown Hotel
Clean room with a comfy bed and a view of the city. Check In was smooth with a friendly reception. The hotel itself was also within walking distance to shops and restaurants, which is a big plus. The included breakfast was just a continental thing, so we went elsewhere.
