The front desk staff is amazing. The hotel is really is decorated nicely. Everything was clean and functional. Downtown is not walkable for the average person but a short drive away. Would definitely stay again.

Washer and dryer were a great addition. Didn’t use much of the kitchen utensils besides mugs and plates. Could use more tea/coffee selection

As soon as we checked in, we immediately booked a second night stay. I doubt very seriously will ever stay anywhere in Asheville other than the artful way again. 100 out of 100 would recommend.

Overall super impressed with this newly built hotel. The decor is bright and fun, and the amenities are great. We didn't need to use the washer/dryer or the kitchen for this short trip, but they are impressively convenient for longer stays. The beds were comfortable, and the bathroom was attractive and functional.
A couple notes I could mention:
The address on file just gets you to the road, not the front of the hotel, so arriving required a quick phone call to the front desk. Easily rectified, but I would recommend double checking the address before heading up the hill.
The hotel is located in the river arts district, which is a great location! But also a noisy one. Half the hotel faces the main road, so late night noise can definitely be heard from the rooms.
The parking garage is connected to the building, but the access point is on the back side, so it requires driving all the way around the block to get in. Once we knew the path it was easy, but it made check in a bit lengthier than we expected.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely put it on our list to return to on our next Asheville trip. We just might request a room on the back side away from the nightlife. :)
Great stay!
