HSAVL/ Katie’s was by far the best Air BNB we’ve stayed in thus far! It felt more like house sitting for a close friend (and a friend with a really nice house ! ). We’ve never gotten so comfortable so quickly. The house is roomy and comfy, and everything you could need or want, has been thought of already, (plus some things you didn’t know you needed). You never know how you might end up sleeping in some places, whether there might be some surprise or unexpected thing that can throw off a good night’s rest, But we slept better at Katies’ than in our own bed. It’s huge and super comfortable, and things are quiet/peaceful.
There’s a huge TV with Netflix and comfy sofa, if you want to lounge around after hiking in Asheville. Also a screen porch to watch the rain or leaves falling, or I imagine, fireflies at dusk in the springtime. There is even access to a washer/dryer if you need to do laundry.
On top of all this, and perhaps the best part about staying here, is the hospitality, or the effort Katie put in to make sure our stay was the best it could be. She really went beyond to make our visit special; and did so without it feeling like the landlord was looking over our shoulder! Top notch spot and host. We wish all AirBnBs could be this nice and easy.
