We spent 4 nights at Dorothy's basement flat in Asheville. It is up on a mountain with a lovely outlook & v quiet & peaceful but close to downtown Asheville. There are a number of ways to walk there - depending on what part you are going to it takes about 30 mins walking. The roads are small, windy & v dark at night with no path so prob best to drive (5 mins) at night - you can park in town for free after 6 & we had no trouble getting parking.
The place is v private & cute though a little lacking in light. The kitchenette & lounge are one room with a separate bedroom (no door) & a v nice bathroom off the bedroom.
She is about to put in a laundry & planning an outdoor space so you can sit out & enjoy the outlook so the place will be even better soon. Dorothy is a lovely lady & a good host & we wish her all the best with her airbnb endeavours.
