Stayed in cottage which was comfortable and charming. Appreciated the cot so we could spread out a little. Kitchen and bathroom were clean. Throughly enjoyed sleeping with the windows open to the mountain air and the quiet. Loved the neighborhood and the proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway and hiking trails. More

We stayed in the cottage which was great! There is a bathroom, kitchenette, pub style table and chairs and a DOUBLE bed. They happily brought in a twin cot so that we would be more comfortable. There is no A/C in the cottage (not sure about the rest of the house) so consider this if staying in the summer. We... More

The Hostel was nice and the staff were helpful. We had a private room upstairs. The hostel is in an old house in walking distance to some neat restaurants and shops which was a plus. It was a little small for me though, and this may just be personal preference. We had a private room which was nice, but it... More

I stayed 2 nights and had a great time with the staff and other travelers. This is a very safe hostel with free, safe parking. It is kind of small and not fancy, but I like that. It is an old house that has been turned into a hostel and the staff members live in the hostel, ensuring that all... More

This was my first time staying in a hostel and it was amazing, I loved it, everyone was very welcoming and friendly and got along great. It's located just down the street from some great cafes and local shops, the area in general is charming and is great for a weekend getaway or for a week stay like I did.... More

The first contact with BP&S is Jeremy's friendly and laid-back tour of the house. He certainly is a great asset to the place, and very knowledgeable about the area. The beds look (and feel!) like they've been built by a dedicated amateur carpenter who came across a supply of odd planks. The facilities are ageing but kept very clean, but... More

We stayed at BP&S for a few days on our cross country trip and fell in love with it immediately. The people are awesome and there are many nice places to go within a short walking distance. Seriously, you can't go wrong with this place, give it a go. More

My friend and I stayed here this past weekend and had a great time. We were initially looking at a different hostel but ended up booking Bon Paul and Sharky's due to the homey vibe we got on their website. This hostel is located in a lovely older home in a funky neighborhood. There are plenty of restaurants and bars... More

I just went on a road trip through several southern states with several friends and Bon Paul and Sharky's Hostel was by far our favorite hostel! The staff (and other hostellers) were so friendly and warm, and the place was in a great location. I walked to Sunpoint restaurant for lunch, the Haywood farmer's market, did my laundry, and went...
