The place was absolutely perfect except for the couch. Price exceptional, Cute, cute place, proximity to park and downtown can’t be beat, cleanliness is spotless. Temperature control would be better but overall will love to save as a keeper and keep coming back.

Probably the best location we could’ve had, no need for a car to explore the city as we are in downtown. Interior was amazing, plenty of amenities and great views. Would 100% book again if i’m ever in the area

The apartment is very comfy and the owners have done a lot to mitigate the light coming in early morning and the train sounds when the GSMR is active. Short walks to everything in town and conveniently close to the GSMNP and Blue Ridge Parkway.
