Absolutely nothing was likable about this awful property. We booked a non-smoking room online. When we arrived the entire place was full of smoke. The broken window didn't even open to let fresh air in. The walls and ceilings were smoke stained, the bed was broken, the wallpaper in the bathroom was falling off of the wall. We decided to leave because the front desk said this was their only non-smoking room.

There was nothing to like besides the man behind the desk that checked me in was nice. The lobby smells like weed. The room smelled of mold as there was mold on the bathroom ceiling and all over the shower curtain. I got a non smoking room but there were burn holes in the blankets on both beds. The room also had other odors that were very unpleasant. We were put right in front of a washer and dryer that was in the hallway with everyone seemed to be doing laundry at all hours. The room was gross and had no available plug in for charging phones had to unplug the lamp under the desk. Floor was sticky and gross the room felt like no one had cleaned it in a very long time.

The room was very clean despite the outdated furniture and old building. The staff was more than friendly and helpful! I felt very safe staying here and think it’s worth the price they’re asking. The walls and floors had lots of wear and tear, but the non smoking room smelled clean and I had no issues.
- 2/5
There were roaches in the room. The pillows and sheets weren’t clean. The sink was eroded. The pictures of the property seemed like a complete 180 from the actual room. The hallway smelled. It was a 2 star property, so I didn’t want to expect much, because it won’t be fair. But the property lacks basic hygiene, everything is dilapidated.

The room was dirty, the bathroom was dirty, and there were cockroaches at night! I don't recommend it. It's horrible!

Aside from the standard dinginess and low condition one expects from a motel like this, I was surprised by the fact that my ceiling was covered in mold. Not only was it moldy, but the room had a musty/damp smell that neccissitated me to wash everything I had brought with me.
- 1/5
I have never been to a hotel where I actually felt afraid. The place was disgusting. I’m sure there are health code violations. I’m willing to put up with a lot to save money. We left and went across the street to Comfort Inn. Supposedly they are refunding my money. We’ll see.

Power went out but it was not the hotel's fault. However, it would have been good to have a backup generator.

I started in room 120. The room at the end of the hall. The next day I had to change rooms because the mold smell was very strong even though they tried to cover it with bleach before we rented it. Also it reeked of bleach the entire time we were in it. I also have many bites that itched so bad I scratched them til they bled. I took pictures of the moldy bathroom and the bites. The doors do not close tight to the door frame & we had to smell weed along with the bleach smell for hours but the bleach smell never went away. The next morning the front desk had me go look at a room on the 2nd floor even though I am disabled. I begged him to put me on the 1st floor. He refused. He also told me weed is legal in NC. So it is allowed. The angle I stood in the door of the bathroom I could only see a few black dots & didn't think it was mold. So I said yes to the 2nd floor room. Once we got into the room we could see there was mold in the bathroom AND over the bed. The 1st room didn't have it over the bed. In the first room the bed was very uncomfortable. The 2nd room it sagged where a persons butt sat on the bed. So when we laid down it was very uncomfortable. It felt like a bed with stretched out springs. It was so bad we woke up in pain. I have several pictures of both rooms. Also I am covered in bites on my entire body from both rooms. I looked up what bed bug bites look like because I have NEVER had this issue in my 62 yrs.

Everything, the room , bed, wifi, bathroom was very clean and comfortable.

The Room Was Not Cleaned properly. There was a bag of chicken from a previous guest, and there was a lot of noise from other guests. The bed made a lot of noise, you couldn't move without it making a noise.I will not be staying there again.

I was looking for a hotel to stay at while i do a travel contract at the local hospital. When checking in I asked the man could checkout be later in the afternoon on Wednesday, since I work night shift. He said no 12 is the latest that he could do. When I tried to connect to the wifi, it didn’t work. He gave me 2 different passwords and it still didn’t connect. Well unfortunately, on Tuesday afternoon after itching all morning I found bed bugs in my bed. I immediately called to the front desk. He told me to get my belongings and move to a room downstairs. He acted as if it was a normal thing for them. No apology, no nothing. I actually thought that he would let me have the later checkout that I asked for since I got bit up by bedbugs all morning , but he didn’t. When I got off of work the next morning I was so scared to go back in the room, I fell asleep in my car in the hotel parking lot.

Loud bands of Mexicans and Guats that didn’t quit until 3am, management said they couldn’t do anything because it was 80% of their business

An older hotel but was fine. Good value, though a larger sign would make it easier to find. Nice personnel. Easy access to I-40. Would stay there again.
- 5/5
Quick and easy check in process. Rooms are nice and staff is super friendly. Would definitely recommend.
- 1/5
Asked for non smoking room but my room reeked of smoke. Not subtle but like being in a bar. Fortunately my inhaler helped me thru 1 night. Went to management next day and was told no other room available. Worse yet I spent only 1 night there but they wouldn't refund my other 3 days. Guy at desk said maybe I will get partial credit for 2 days but didn't sound convincing (no partial refund on my credit card as of yet). Regardless I immediately booked another hotel 8 miles away-best decision I've made this year.
- 3/5
The room was noisy and the bed either had bedbugs or fleas because I itched all night. It was a pretty awful night.
- 5/5
My room was extremely clean and well-appointed with a larger than average mini-fridge, clean microwave, newer coffee pot and a newer model large flatscreen t.v. conveniently mounted across from the bed. Speaking of the bed! It was a very comfy pillow top queen set with crisp clean sheets and a HUGE oversized warm. The water pressure was amazing and stayed hot as long as I showered. I'll definitely stay here again on my next trip through Asheville!

I recently spent 3 wks in a local hospital after a serious back injury necessitated spine surgery and I needed to find a SAFE, AFFORDABLE hotel so that I could do several wks of physical therapy here. The day before my hospital discharge I started calling around to area hotels but found most to be way out of my budget. Until I called the Rodeway Inn in West Asheville. Not only did the rates fall well within my admittedly tight budget, the staff member that answered the phone was warm, friendly and empathetic after I explained what had been going on in my life. He immediately made me feel welcome and reassured me that a handicap accessible room would be waiting for me the next day (thank you Brian!). I've been here almost a month now and every one of the employees from the manager to housekeeping to the maintenance men have been extremely helpful and gone out of their way to make me feel safe and welcome. The room I rented was extremely clean, the bed comfortable, the heat works perfectly, there's amazing water pressure (I hate to stay places with weak water pressure in the shower!), and there's convenient laundry facilities in the hotel for guests to use. I don't know when I'll be back.in Asheville but if I need to stay overnight I wont stay anywhere but this Rodeway Inn. Thank you again to the wonderful hardworking staff!!

Very disappointed in the fact that I could not travel due to a death in the family and they would not give me a refund. I spoke to the front desk and man said he would approve it through hotels.com when contacted. Not only liars but heartless as well.

It stinks they’re so loud just not recommended

Which battle the horrific sound from the heater and the people in the lobby. The area had a lot of fast food joints to eat with in walking distance even a Cracker Barrel. “The madness” restaurant just in the neighboring parking lot was AMAZING!!! If your feeling bored with life and wanna slum it. Then for sure go. It was cheap and we survived so it’s all good!!

It was acceptable for a quick stay, but beds not very comfortable and the place could use some TLC like paint, and general updates on ceiling which was flaking off, exposed patches on walls, newer linens and towels. Some cosmetic upkeep would make it better

Bathroom smelled like cat markings. It was noisy the whole time we were there and because of that I only got a couple hours of sleep. Never again.

I checked in and after housekeeping cleaned someone slept on the bed and the the toilet bowel was filled with pee. So it looks like the employee's hangout in the rooms. When I asked for a new room they wanted to give me one with half a window missing. Hotels.com should be embarrassed they have this dump on there site

Cannibis and knives are sold in reception area if your into that, along with a wide array of other items. We had a supposedly accessible room but toliet was too low for handicap person and loose . Nice downlike comforter on bed.

The staff was helpful and nice. The multiple scary people in the parking lot drove us away. They were drinking, laying in the bushes, and just loitering about. We knew our car would be broken into so we left. Our room was also kind of dirty.

Last-minute booking weather was really bad as I was driving through the hotel is older The room was very clean the staff was excellent they didn’t have a problem with homeless people hanging out around there but they have taken measures to curve that all in all if you need a place to sleep for a few hours not bad

The room had mold in it, the sheets had burn marks and stains on it. The bathroom shower curtain was covered in mold. The walls were filthy . Very loud hotel. People yelling, dogs barking, and people slamming doors all hours of the night. This is probably the most unclean and unsafe location that we have ever booked.

Although the bed was comfortable, the condition of the property was poor. Broken bathroom fixtures, torn or missing wallpaper and old carpet are among the deficiencies. I got a good night's sleep at a low price but probably would not stay there again.

Cockroaches and loud people

Close to interstate. Room and bathroom was too small. Bed was like a hammock. Next to an auto repair shop with lots of grinding noises. Toilet was constantly running. Door wasn't installed properly, an inch gap at the top! Stairs were very dangerous. No breakfast of any kind. Pergo floors weren't very clean. Electrical outlets were under the furniture and lights were not plugged in. People were arguing in the hallway all night long.

Nothing about this visit was pleasant at all. Poor customer service at check in. Was just very rude when speaking to me and going over the policies. Especially when it came to the guest rules. Yet all I heard all night long was people coming in and out constantly knocking on doors. Couldn't hardly sleep because of that as well as other reasons. The bed was just terrible. While being there I killed at least 5 roaches in the room some of which came from under the bed. The tub constantly ran the whole time. I did in fact notify front desk about that. However they said yes they know it's just the cold water. They had ordered the part but was waiting on it to come in. Then when I found out that I didn't have to be in town as long as I originally expected. I contacted the hotel room in advance to find out their refund policy on early check out. Just to be sure I'd get it back before checking out so I didn't absolutely lose out on that money. I was told that upon check out my remainder balance would be refunded back to my bank card. After contacting my bank and going back and forth between the hotel and my bank. My bank has ended up having to file a claim on it because I still have not received any confirmation of it even being processed back or anything. I was relieved when I found out I could check out early and be refunded only due to my experience of the facility since being there.

Do not stay here! I saw a cockroach the minute I stepped in the door. A little while later, another bug scurrying across the floor. Filthy. The prices are low but honestly you get even less than what you pay for

The building is older, but the room we stayed in was newly rennovated. The halls and stairs are a little rough, but I have no complaints about the room. Basic, simple, inexpensive. Perfect for what I was looking for.

The hotel is adequate for one night. One of the bedspreads had cigarette burns all over it. The tub was not clean... I didn't feel comfortable taking a shower in it. It's an older hotel although they've tried to update some. However, I never felt unsafe and cracker barrel, Dunkin, and a gas station are all steps away.

Checked in and out within an hour. Our original plans changed so we had to make new reservations within the same day and most hotels in the Asheville area were booked. This place looked like you pay by the hour. Dirty. Questionable guys loitering in the hallway.
