Sadly, Nina's place was not as described. Located in a dark basement, the low-budget efficiency smells like cigarettes and urine. The AC unit doesn't cool the air, as the heat it generates is not routed effectively outside. The air is stinky and stuffy and hot in the summer. Entire swathes of the walls of the studio are caked in dust and hair. The bedding is inexpensive budget polyester and the mattress is stained. The parking is inconsistent, so there isn't always a guaranteed place to park. Finding street-side parking in downtown Asheville is getting more challenging year over year, so free parking is a huge selling point for this rental. Upon my arrival, the space was not cleaned and the host was unaware. It was hastily cleaned while I went for a walk. I returned to a made bed, but an unclean shower and toilet and floors. In addition to these issues, the bathroom sink is stopped up and does not drain properly. My biggest concern was the generic code used for the studio deadbolt. This did not make me feel safe or secure during my visit. There was no other manner to lock the door from the inside of the studio besides the keypad deadbolt. With an easy-to-guess code (that was potentially recycled), I did not feel secure in the studio space. I appreciated being able to travel with my pup, but given the other issues at hand, it didn't weigh out the negatives of staying in this derelict efficiently at the price point established by Nina.
