We stayed at Joseph's place this past weekend with our dog and had a wonderful time! The space was clean, comfortable, and best of all (for us), dog friendly! Joseph even provided food and water bowls that we could use, along with complimentary coffee, tea and wine for the humans! The location was close to downtown Asheville without being right in the heart of things, and the off-street parking was wonderful. We went running each morning and walked around the neighborhood several times with the pup, spoke with Joseph a couple times about recommendations for food and breweries, and really just had a wonderful weekend! I think this would also be a great option even if you're not traveling with a pet - it was very clean and certainly didn't smell like animals had stayed there, or have dog hair on the rugs or anything.
