My friends and I were looking for a last-minute place to stay in Asheville for a long weekend. The Sassy Purple Cottage was a perfect home base for our romping around Ashville. The house was clean and our host was prompt and helpful when communicating about check-in/check-out. She also provided excellent tips for places to visit and things to do in downtown Asheville. We went brewery hopping for most of our stay, and the cab ride to downtown (Uber is readily available) was between $5-$7 dollars each way. The advantage is that it is easy to get downtown but if you want a peaceful day to yourself, the cottage is far enough removed to provide that. Multiple grocery stores are nearby and easy to get to, and the kitchen is well-stocked with pots, pans, etc. The bed in the main bedroom is indeed very comfortable. If using the trundle bed, be aware that the pull-out mattress is typical of all such mattresses is slightly less comfortable. But for our group of 20-somethings, it was just fine. We would definitely stay here again!
