Ar was a great host from the very beginning, starting with the emails leading up to our stay and ending after we left. When we arrived, she gave us a tour of the studio, explained how to use the different appliances, and had breakfast food and local craft beer waiting for us! She was even thoughtful enough to ask a few days ahead of time of some suggestions of foods we like. Even though the studio apartment was attached to her house, we never heard a noise from upstairs and we still had complete privacy. The studio was very well kept and clean. We really enjoyed the all the fluffy, soft rugs throughout the place! We will definitely be staying here again next time we visit Asheville and we'll recommending our friends here too!
