Whispering Pines Motel 140 Smokey Park Highway, Asheville, NC 28806

"Great staff attentive to your needs and at a decent price too . Quiet"

"I’m not sure what people are expecting, this is a low budget motel, and one of the better ones I’ve stayed in. The room was clean, the WiFi was good, and the staff was friendly. It is run by Indians, I think perceived rudeness is the result of a cultural difference. Most importantly, I felt safe there, which is not always guaranteed at places like this"

"First off, the lady up front makes sure that you get what you want. When we called to get a room, she asked us if we wanted a room with beds. That’s exactly what we wanted. I was needing to cut my toe nails but didn’t feel like bending down to do so. But the chipped tile in the bathroom took care of that. And other people must’ve took advantage of this feature because there was a pile of toe nails in the corner. The color tv was definitely a plus. Enjoyed watching M.A.S.H reruns on it. Minimal mattress stains. Can’t wait till next year to try the rooms with out beds."

"It's an Indian establishment where they speak broken English. Room was clean, but musty smell. I paid them $180 ($90 for 2 nights), however I decided not to stay mainly because I felt unsafe and the people I saw were pretty seedy looking. When I asked if I could get a refund they said no, but then they decided to give me $80 in cash for the 2nd night. They also said they could not refund the taxes, which I guess was included in the $180 (never saw a breakdown). I give this 5 thumbs down and would not even consider staying there in future."

"DEFINETLY RECCOMEND! There is brand new management here and they are so sweet. They will make sure you have a great stay. The rooms are comfortable and perfect for the price that is charged. I was reading through these reviews and so many people complained about the sanitary aspect, however I can confirm that with the new management the cleanliness has improved so much. the rooms were also recently updated! Right across the street there is a supermarket, and Chik-fil-a! There are also many places to eat along the road the motel is located on. The new manager here is very nice and overall I had a very pleasant experience here. STAY HERE"
