I loved that we were so close to Asheville and River arts district which has really neat graffiti art. I loved the claw tub for soaking. I will say that the mattress was more on the firm side. The host was so personable and left treats for the dogs and a special note with our names, two Arizona green teas and some cookies as a warm welcome. I wish I could have met her because she seemed like such a really nice person that loves animals, proud of her home and loves her town.
