Hi Brandon, as you know the construction next door completely ruined our stay. They didn’t finish until 6 pm on Friday and were back hammering and drilling at 8:00 AM on Saturday directly outside of our window. I don’t know how it’s even justified to rent this u it out under these circumstances. I appreciate the refund on two nights but I truly hope you won’t rent this out to more guests until construction is done. On a positive note, it’s a nice unit and the bakery and restaurant below are a huge bonus. The unit could use a few touches that would help (I noticed others mentioned this too): The bathroom desperately needs shelving for toiletries and a knob added to the cabinet under the sink so you don’t rake your knuckles on the door molding when trying to open it. Last thing, black out curtains in the bedroom would be great. The slanted floors are a little surprise but kind of more funny than troubling.

Nice Location

It was in a nice location for exploring Ashville, the Biltmore, the vinicity around Ashville as well as close to Whole Foods. The place was clean and well kept. I also liked that there was a coffee shop in the same building, as well as being able to walk to several places. We had a great visit!

Great location with restaurants, bars, and coffee shops in walking distance. A quick 15 minute walk to downtown Asheville. Easy drive to different hiking opportunities.

Great place to stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location in a quiet part of town but that is still within a walking distance of downtown and many local restaurants. Very clean and well kept property. The management staff was responsive to all of my questions.

Cozy, Clean and Close

Great price for location and photos are 100% accurate for the 3rd floor unit we rented. King bed was a treat, as was the City Bakery and Bone & Broth restaurant on ground floor. But 1600sf in description is likely a typo; more like 4-or-500sf and the bathroom is tight. Place is spotless and everything is stocked and in working order. You can walk to middle of downtown shops in 15mins. As VRBO owners ourselves, we can say we'd stay here again.

Birthday

Nice little just outside of downtown apartment. Bathroom could use more storage (shelf over the roomier and medicine cabinet for example) for personal toiletries. The carpet squares also move under your feet because they don't stick so maybe a rug instead, but overall a perfect place for two adults to stay on getaway to Asheville.

Needs work

Bathroom needs some work, kitchen, living area and bedroom are just ok. Old building and floors are sloped. Needs a rug in the living area, not squares. Bathroom needs some type of shelf and to install a toilet paper holder! I would not stay here again

We parked the car and walked everywhere

As craft beer lovers we we have always loved Asheville for the sheer number of breweries within such a small geographic footprint. That said, many new places have sprung up recently and we wanted to be able to walk to them so that we could enjoy their products without driving a car. This place is about a mile north of the main downtown and maybe another half mile further to the South Slope brewery district. Perfect location! When you need a bite there is no shortage of creative food offerings around the city including a bakery and a nice restaurant on the first floor of this building. The space feels like a corporate, one bedroom apartment. Everything you need is there. We made our own coffee in the morning and set out for the day's adventures. Really it could not have been a much better fit for us.

Historic Property

The place was clean and convenient to attractions in and around Asheville. Know that there is no elevator. The bakery downstairs is great for coffee, breakfast and lunch. We were in unit 7, and there were no surfaces to place toiletries. In fact, the bathroom sink was too small to so much as wash your hands. Had to use the kitchen sink for all brushing of teeth, washing face, etc. The floor sloped, but that was not a problem. If sleeping in the bed next to the wall, getting in and out of bed required scooting in and out. The bed was comfortable. Our stay was O.K., but expected better for the price.

Location! Location! Location!

The apartment is a pretty standard place and for the money I think it’s a good price. But seriously the location of this place is amazing. Not necessarily a walk to downtown, but I very quick drive (less than 5 minutes). And we loved the bakery downstairs. Woke up Saturday morning and just walked downstairs and brought it back to the apartment. Cons to the place: bathroom sink. This may seem silly but I can not tell you how much my fiancé and I continued to complain about the bathroom sink. It was the smallest sink I’ve ever seen. Like actually didn’t know they made sinks that small and on top of that, the water didn’t have a steady flow so when you turned on the faucet, water went absolutely everywhere. The owner supplies you plenty of towels which we used a lot of to just clean up the water that kept spraying out of the sink. Overall though, the location really outweighed any negative and the place was nice and clean with a comfortable bed so what more can you really ask for.

Nice place

We stayed on the third floor for a long weekend and will, definitely, consider going back when we are in Asheville. It is a relatively short walk to the downtown area, and the unit itself was clean and tidy. I recommend.

Enjoyable Stay

We thoroughly enjoyed the proximity to downtown. Essentially every restaurant that we visited and many of the attractions that we enjoyed were within walking distance. We were pleased with City Bakery, a quaint and dainty little bakery just steps away from our apartment. It was fabulous. I do recommend modifying the description. We DID NOT have mountain views and felt a bit let down by that misrepresentation, but every other aspect was spot on. Overall it was a very enjoyable stay!

Perfect!

Perfect for what we needed for a 3 day, anniversary trip. Clean, comfortable and convenient. Easy parking and accessing the building and apartment. A bit of a walk to downtown, but not bad. We walked to and from 2x and got an Uber back one night ($8). Safe area. Cafe downstairs was perfect for a quick breakfast. We went to Bone and Broth on our last night, which was super convenient to pop down stairs for dinner (reservations recommended) and dinner was so good! Had no reasons to contact property mgt., was all handled via email/app. Would definitely book again!
