It really is all about the LOCATION!!!
Above all else the location is FANTASTIC. It is in the heart of Asheville and an easy walk to just about everything.. The Condo's Kitchen was very well equiped with anything you can think of.. The master Bedroom and Bath were very roomy. Hanging up clothes is challenging since the Master closet is locked. Besides that, it was a very comfortable living space for the 4 of us. Close Parking is limited and they fill up fast. Would I stay there again? ABSOLUTELY!!

Asheville is Nice
My sister and I stayed at this property for a first-time visit to Asheville. The location is very convenient and we were able to walk to many locations and to quickly drive to other attractions. Be aware that (like many cities) Asheville is experiencing a homelessness problem downtown. There are also street musicians with loud sound systems who may treat you to a Led Zeppelin concert into the night. As far as the property goes, it is showing its age -- overall style, evidence of water damage in the MBR bath and on the LR ceiling. It lacks good sound-proofing between the units (smaller bedroom). There was also a persistent dank smell in the hallway. With a thorough re-do, it would be a great unit for a vacation visit. Given the price, there may be other nearby properties that are newer or in better shape . . . but probably not downtown.
