A beautiful, spacious, upscale condo with amazing balcony VIEWS of the mountains! As far as amenities, it leans more towards a hotel vibe than BNB. Don’t expect a welcome basket, just a few travel size toiletries in the bathroom (but plenty of towels and linens) and some coffee, sugar and cream in the kitchen which WAS stocked with dishes, cookware and utensils as well as cleaning supplies, so it was okay with us.
The condo was super CLEAN. Self check-in and check-out were easy. There was secure garage parking. The LOCATION was great so we were able to walk to shops and restaurants downtown. There was not a notebook or list of helpful area information but there was a refrigerator magnet directing us to their WEBSITE which had a ton of local information, suggestions and discounts (info on the Airbnb page too).
As far as the homeless people mentioned in some reviews, sadly they don’t seem to be specific to that area. We saw them everywhere, even sleeping on cement benches in the middle of downtown (not a lot of homeless, but definitely a presence). That’s unfortunate but not necessarily unsafe.
All in all, we were pleased with our choice to stay here and we enjoyed our visit to Asheville, especially the Blue Ridge Parkway and the excellent food and service at Ukiah Japanese Smokehouse (within walking distance).
