Wilant and Alice have raised airbnb hosting to an art form. The lower-level apartment, while compact, is immensely comfortable, scrupulously clean, and intelligently organized -- right down to labels describing the contents of drawers and instructions on using the "smart" functions of this modern space. From the moment of our booking, we were provided with myriad suggestions of things to do and places to eat, and all of my questions were answered promptly. Check-in was a breeze, and once inside, we found a bottle of wine waiting for us -- along with a basket of snacks, ample breakfast supplies, and assorted other edibles. Best of all was spending some time with them after a busy day of exploring Asheville -- they are interesting, super-friendly, fun people.
