Hilton Garden Inn July 9-13 Hilton Garden Inn July 16-20  Hilton Garden Inn July 23-27 Hilton Garden Inn July 30-Aug Alternate places to stay, still within walking distance of the workshop and restaurants are the two hostels located downtown, Sweet Peas Hostel at 23 Rankin Ave. (828-285-8488) and Asheville Hostel and Guest House at 12 Ravenscroft Dr. (828-423-0256).  The hostels have single rooms and group rooms with private or shared bathrooms for a traveler who is looking for more affordable pricing.  Please realize the hostels can sometimes be a bit noisier, so earplugs are recommended—that being stated, many teachers have stayed at both hostels in the past and have been very happy with their choice.  AirBnB.com and CouchSurfing.com are two other ways to choose your price and enjoy a bit of the local culture.
