Country Inn & Suites by Radisson Asheville Downtown Tunnel Road
The hotel is nice, in the process of being remodeled. Courteous staff and the room was very clean. The TV wasn't the best. No info on the channels so you had to go back and forth with the guide. Also no input button, so couldn't stream something from your own device.
