Overall had a good two week stay at the Hideaway while trying out "working from anywhere.
Location was great. Was really happy with how easy it was to get around and go places around Asheville. Hideaway has great light and you can see bluejays outside. Wifi was also strong and reliable. And it's a good value overall, especially if staying for more than a week (and can spread out the high cleaning fee). Once my stay drew closer, host was responsive and was during my stay too.
A few notes for future guests:
1. Definitely park at the top of the house. It is a little confusing to find at first but go slow. When you do find it, back into the space in front of the house too, will make exiting a lot easier.
2. Master bedroom mattress is VERY firm. If you've slept on a mattress in Japan or Thailand, it's similar to that. It is uncomfortable for a few nights, then gets a tad better.
3. Laundry room is located underneath the house so you have to access it from outside. Be aware of that depending on the season in which you are going. If doing laundry at night, there is a porch light but you'll need your phone light to see the lock underneath the patio. Also, low overhead.
4. This is an AirBNB where the guest has to provide a lot of the basic items. Including: dishwasher pods, dish soap (for hand washing), napkins, facial tissue, etc. I did suggest that be clearer in the listing because each AirBNB varies what it does provide so know that ahead of time.
5. Couch is very uncomfortable. It looks like it's used as an additional bed. So if you're staying for awhile and want to relax, that won't be a good spot for it. But it's fine for short periods.
6. Bathroom has little storage space and the shower can be snug. If you're a bit more full figured, that will be snug.
Hope that helps for future guests!
