David and Shawn are great hosts, friendly and attentive but not intrusive. Beverage fridge is well-stocked, and an artisanal cocktail recipe is provided. The pups are adorable and good company. Bed was comfortable, chairs and reading lamps very much appreciated. David and Shawn make their very pleasant outdoor terrace available to their guests. River Arts District is within walking distance, but RAD studios are spread out over a long distance. Downtown Asheville and Biltmore are easy Uber rides. Staying with David and Shawn enhanced the trip.
