The hotel was decent but could have improved slightly. I got confused in the parking lot getting to the lobby. The streets of Asheville are HORRIBLE. They are dirty, drug addicts and beggars on every corner. Crackheads smoking pipes and the police just drive by and look the other way. The bed in the room we stayed in was super duper firm and almost felt like I was sleeping on the floor. The room was fairly recently updated or well kept but moldings were still coming off. We had a decent view. There were a ton of people with dogs in the hotel. The dogs or people were not loud at all even though we were just next to the outside bar/pool area. The view was nice from the room and the patio bar. The bartenders and other staff were super nice. Overall, it was a nice hotel but due to the unsafe environment just outside of the hotel, we will not go back to Asheville until they clean up their city. I would never take my kids there.

So sorry to hear that you were confused by the parking garage. We are getting new beds at some point soon so if you do choose to come back your next night's sleep should be lovely.
