My wife and I enjoyed our stay in this cozy, well-designed and attractive unit. Lani is a terrific host who communicates promptly and easily. We will definitely be staying here again next time we’re in AVL!
Everything was so cute and clean. We had everything we needed for a weekend get away. Can't wait to come back.

This was a quiet, small enjoyable place that was near shops and restaurants. It was very comfortable and very homey. Would stay here again if the opportunity comes about.
This unit was perfect. Exactly what my wife and i had envisioned for a valentine's getaway. Very clean, and comfortable. The bath tub and shower were definitely a favorite part of the unit. Also 5 minute ride to downtown. We are already planning our next visit.
This place is a 10/10 for sure. The host was easy to communicate with and very accommodating for a date change we made. The place is super clean, toiletries and linens provided and the location is perfect for downtown or highway access. Highly recommend and we will be back.
The property was even more than we expected and was in a perfect location to enjoy all that Asheville has to offer. Our host was easy to communicate with and helped with all our needs.
Great stay. Very clean and well appointed apartment. The bathroom was amazing. The clawfoot tub was much appreciated after a long day of driving. Very close to downtown. When downtown is crowded on the weekend, save yourself parking stress and get an uber for under 10!
Truly amazing. Every detail is thought of. The furnishings and details are top notch. Communication was timely and friendly. We were truly sad to leave!
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at this VRBO. The unit was very clean and just as pictured. The location was perfect to easily access downtown Asheville. Additionally the host was very responsive and attentive to any needs of her guests. We would recommend staying here to anyone!
We had the best stay at Lani’s place! It is so cute and very well taken care of. Lani has literally thought of everything you may need or have forgotten to pack. The unit is well laid out, very organized, and in a great location. Thank you again for providing such care to the little details, we noticed and appreciated it :)
The location and accommodations were great. It was close to one our favorite bars and just a short drive to the city. Lani was great with communication and made the check-in process seamless. We would definitely stay here again!
We love this adorable little property! It was so clean and comfortable; had everything we needed. Would love to stay here again!

About the host
Hosted by Lani Blakeslee
I purchased this property from the family who built and owned it for generations just before Asheville took off as a travel destination. I designed and self contracted for the entire renovation which took 4 years. I was on site and made every design choice and decision which brought this home back to its former glory. I personally retsored the 63 double hung windows and 33 original doors. Once you stay with me you will see and feel the love, and feel loved in return....
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location! Just .07 mile north of the heart of downtown you have the convenience of being close to everything while having enough distance to have quiet nights to rest and staying in an a gloriously beautiful, unparaleled, historic neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
The building has been recently and completely restored with high end finishes and unexpected luxuries such as super fast Wifi, on demand (and filtered) hot water, a smart TV, soft close cabinetry, Marble and quartzite surfaces, Hyatt Hotel luxury mattress and a brand new and reliable heating/cooling system you have autonomous control of. Guests frequently praise the beautifully designed and luxurious bathroom which boasts a wet room with rainshower head and deep soaking tub. Your host takes pride in being responsive and available to answer your questions and trouble shoot any unexpected needs or issues.
