If you want to stay in Asheville and be able to walk to good restaurants, funky shops and bars you can't do much better than Mellissa's loft. You could easily park your car for your whole visit and still see the best parts of the town.
The space is open, clean and very comfortable. My wife and I enjoyed the gas fire on a chilly night and will definitely come back when the weather is warmer. Mellissa was very helpful throughout our trip and her recommendations were excellent.
