I thoroughly enjoyed my month at Amy's. A consummate host and housemate, Amy's knowledge of Asheville is amazing. Whether it was a great tip on a hiking trail or a neat coffee shop, her recommendations were great. We shared many a conversation on the outdoors, the history of Asheville, and life in general. My time was warm and welcoming, and I had enough privacy when needed.
You can hear the nearby river from the front porch, and the peaceful neighborhood is far enough to be quiet and secluded, yet close enough to be a quick drive to downtown. The bedroom + private bathroom was great for my early mornings. The shower always had piping hot water, and the bed was very comfortable. She provided a heater for those colder nights, but was alright with turning up the heat if needed (which I didn't - I prefer it a tad cold). The internet was fast. I had space in the kitchen and fridge for my goodies, and was welcome to use the driveway for parking if needed. There is parking on the street (cul-de-sac) if needed, as well.
I would absolutely stay at Amy's again if I am in Asheville, whether for business or pleasure - and hope to do so again soon. Thanks again, Amy!
