Damon is extremely flexible and a great communicator. Didn't have a chance to meet him but he always responded to requests promptly. The downstairs area is very nice and new. Bed is really comfy and there are quite a few "extras" down there to make sure your stay is comfortable.
Walk to town is a healthy 25-30 minutes but it was nice walking off the delicious meals Asheville has to offer! Would definitely stay here again.
