Stayed here for several days when travelling with my wife and 16 month old daughter. The neighborhood looked a little sketchy when we first pulled up, but there were no issues throughout our stay, and the proximity to everything turned out to be a huge plus.
Downtown and River Arts district are less than 10 minutes away, and West Asheville was about 10 minutes total. If you're interested in the Biltmore, its on the other side of town, but that was not really our thing, so it worked out fine.
The bed was AWESOME. Had about a 3 inch memory foam topper on it, so I slept like a baby every night. The kitchenette was loaded with high-end snacks. No dollar-store candy, but good stuff like Kettle Chips.
The place looked newly renovated, and all the fixtures were new and functional. The decor was also very nice.
I'd definitely stay here anytime I'm in Asheville.
