We went to Asheville for a family wedding in the downtown area & the house was in the perfect location! Downtown was within walking distance. The house is in a lovely old neighborhood, but not the easiest to navigate initially. GPS sent us astray, but we called Maria & she talked us in, bless her. Once established, we quickly learned the ins & outs. The first day we had a few questions & Maria always answered her phone immediately & was so helpful. The house is very "Asheville" in it's charm, so much more comfortable & homey for us than a hotel. Many thanks to Maria!!!
