It was our first time in Asheville and we weren't really sure where to stay. Safe to say we made a great choice. Krista's loft was simply perfect. Sitting atop her cozy balcony, peering out onto College Street, you truly feel surrounded by the city. Every bar, restaurant, and gallery you could want to visit downtown is within a 10-15 minute walk. Most are much closer. The loft itself is full of charm. Small touches like a record player and a log of previous guests' visits, dating back 5 years, make the loft feel warm and homey. I loved how the natural light bursts through the long windows. The one callout I'd make is that it can get pretty noisy at night, but I'd imagine that would be true of most places downtown, and the noise machine in the bedroom helped quell the sound. Overall, it was a wonderful place and I'd love to stay there again sometime!
