Home: It's a beautiful open house with an amazing garden in the back. The rear door stayed open during our stay, so if you are someone who may be creeped out by bugs this place may not be for you. Which in my eyes is unfortunate since it's a comfortable home and you would enjoy your stay here. Their is no A/C but the fan in the room was enough to keep us cool during the day and evening. There is a dog and a cat which was a very pleasant surprise. *Warning* They may follow you up stairs and try to play. :) Also, free Kombucha! You can't beat that.
Neighborhood: If you are like me and just ended up in Asheville on a whim. The city is kind of a weird place. A mixture of college students, hippies, and a healthy amount of homelessness. It was bustling on Saturday (best to park near the house and walk) and Sunday was a ghost town. There are tons of shops and restaurants to check out. Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, a 30 min walk away. But why go there when an awesome little CO-OP right down the street has one of the best Fakin'n Bacon Sandwiches and other healthy foods(if that's your thing) . Also make sure you check out the Double Decker Bus for some amazing coffee (make sure to ask for a postcard).
Overall: I loved the area that the apartment was in, but I wasn't the biggest fan of Asheville itself. But life is about experiences so book a room, drink some Kombucha, enjoy your stay here :) .
