The unique look of Mark and Melanie's place initially caught our eyes and it definitely lived up to expectations. The place was clean and very comfortable (fire place was a huge plus). It is also very well decorated. There were so many cool paintings and pieces of artwork. We also couldn't have asked for a better location. From going hiking in the mountains to exploring downtown, we felt like we were in a pretty central location with everything easily accessible. Mark was also a very welcoming host. We ran into him a few times on our way in or out, and he always made sure to ask how we were enjoying ourselves and offer suggestions of good places to grab a bite to eat. I would definitely recommend this place, without hesitation, as a great choice for anyone planning to visit Asheville.
