This is a cozy and comfortable spot in an amazing location. The neighborhood is fantastic with many good restaurants nearby (try All Day Darling for breakfast!) Although it's a basement apartment, there is plenty of light from floor to ceiling glass doors with a nice darkening drape for sleeping. You may hear some footsteps overhead but all was quiet by bedtime and was not an issue. Heather was responsive and accommodating when we had questions during our stay. Asheville is a great city with lots to explore and this is a great home base for doing just that.
