The tiny house had no heat or a/c, so it was either too hot or too cold depending on the weather. Space was too cramped and the window doesn’t have a screen and won’t stay open.

An absolutely lovely hostel experience in the convenient location of West Asheville. As soon as I arrived, I felt that I stepped into a new community—and I instantly felt welcomed. What I enjoyed most was spending a few hours outside giggling, storytelling, and doodling with staff and other guests around the fire under the waning crescent moon and few visible stars peeking through the clouded midnight sky.

+ 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.

Nice little place to stay. It was extremely quiet however I was only there at night as I come in at 8pm and leave at 7 AM so don’t know how it is in the daytime. The internet great. Bathroom clean. Towels were available when I requested it.
