Our host was quick to respond to communication in the week prior to our arrival and reached out to us the day of our arrival. He was friendly, professional, and helpful regarding the apartment and touring the Asheville area. The apartment was absolutely spotless and perfect for our needs. My friend and I wanted a place within walking distance of downtown, but we also wanted to be in a quiet neighborhood nearby (versus stepping out into town center right outside our door). We also wanted to be able to make coffee and a light breakfast in the morning and be able to store leftovers from dinner in a fridge. While the kitchen was basic (small fridge, microwave, electric skillet, and electric burner), it suited our needs perfectly. The shower was hot and we were able to control the temperatures of our own bedrooms (nice when you have one person who sleeps hot and the other cold). The photos you see are completely accurate. I/we would absolutely stay there again.
