Athena's Loft is what Airbnb is all about: gracious people letting you stay at their clean, well-appointed place.
We loved this apartment: the location was fantastic (you can walk to Harvest Records, Biscuithead, and a host of other West Asheville joints). The apartment itself: beautiful and cozy. The bed was comfortable, the towels were fluffy, the living/dining room ideal for socializing.
As a bonus, Beth was attentive, sending text messages to let us know we could use the baseboard heaters and making sure things were ok on our first evening. We left early on Sunday and didn't get a chance to say goodbye, but both of us agreed that Athena's Loft would 100% be the place we'd stay next time.
