    Staff is almost non-existent. Other guests helped answer my questions. Almost all communication was via text, but they were prompt on texts. Only saw 1 person who worked there refreshing breakfast items.

    The room was great, very spacious and comfortable bed

    No tv’s. I didn’t realize until the last minute. If your not a tv watcher your golden, if you are maybe you want a residence with a tv.

    Very clean and quiet. Close to town, able to walk to shops and restaurants.

    Breakfast was very very limited. Coffee tea, some cookies and a yogurt. Oh and a cereal bar. So need to foresee a budget for daily breakfast. That was bumper.

    Charming Hotel with great ambience
    • Leisure trip

    The hotel has no sign, which might make you miss it when you first arrive.. There are no heavy food options. My only pet peeve is, as a design choice, the books that adorn this hotel in rooms, lobbies and tables all have their covers removed, which bugs the F out of me.

    The Blind Tiger is based on an unassuming street without flashy lights or large lobbies. Inside, it feels like you have stepped into a mid century house and are house sitting for a friend with a few other strangers. There are curated selection of snacks and drinks on hand discreetly behind the bar. Fireplace roars in different rooms on the ground floor which serve as a dining/gathering area. Each spot can be used to either quietly read, play games, warm yourself by the fire or take great portraits and fashion photos. Rooms are unique, well furnished and full of old world charm. They are cozy and furnished with lovingly maintained old style furnishings. A few creaks in the floor & the occasional stuck door jamb end up adding to the ambience rather than taking from it.

    A TV would be nice but I think they don't have them in the main house as it could disturb other gusts.

    It is a very eclectic B n B which I liked. Breakfast was fine, a variety of foods to have including fruit. My room was very nice and comfortable, as was the king size bed. Its in a great location, quiet but close to many place tec. in Asheville. It felt like a home from home.

    Have fans in the rooms and or keep the radiator heat lower temp and use the portable room hesters as needed. The radiator heat was too hot as the weather was unseasonably warm. They did drop the temp the next morning when we informed them. We stayed in suite 2

    Breakfast was healthy. Great snack pantry. Excellent coffee/tea. Plush towels, comfortable bed, doft sheets. Nice outdoor area and siting area in tge main house.

    Perhaps more breakfast options for the "grab-and-go" morning options. Perhaps an evening option might be nice as well - - a glass of wine or a bar?

    Beautiful setting a bit out of the fray of downtown Asheville. We loved our cozy cabin, with plenty of space and a beautiful fireplace. Easy parking in a convenient neighborhood, yet secluded. It was a very quiet stay.

    The inn has a lot of very eccentric light fixtures and decorative pieces in the parlor and the shared spaces. Too many pieces and too weird for my taste.

    The breakfast room was very nice and we enjoyed having the freedom to choose the beverages and foods that we preferred. We are early risers so it was nice to be able to help ourselves to coffee at any time.

    The bathroom shower floor needs some updating. The bed was very uncomfortable. Housekeeping doesn't dust very well and only made the bed without changing the sheets. Windows were very dirty.

    Food was fine, getting downtown was easy walking and we are 65 and 71. Staff was very friendly and informative about the area.

    There was no fan in the room which made sleeping night 1 a little uncomfortable. However, they provided a fan swiftly upon request.

    I loved how close it was to downtown, and how unique the accommodations were.

    I would have liked a Happy Hour to be part of the experience. Right around check-in would have been perfect.

    The Breakfast was good. I wish that it was a of a meal experience with couples sitting together at a large table promoting interaction. I thought that if given an opportunity I think that folks that were there would choose to be more social as opposed to treating the stay like if they were at a hotel. It was nice to have coffee available throughout the day.

    parking areas need trimming of shrubs and not clear where other shared parking lots were got a angry note when we parked in what we thought was our area. also, need more bath towels , one hand towel and 1 bath towel not enough. Breakfast was not so good, we only ate once and then just went for hot coffee.

    cottage was a separate building. Everything in cottage we needed.

    There was nothing I didn't like. I did notice the garden was due a visit, but it didn't look bad, just busy.

    I loved the breakfast! It changes day by day. Also, the staff were wonderful. I stayed in the Robert Frost room and highly recommend it. King bed, fireplace, privacy from bedroom windows thanks to the gardens. I would absolutely stay here again!
