Pros: Property was located very near downtown at the top of a driveway on pristine and beautiful property. Ample parking. I fell in love with the grounds! The deck off bedroom was dreamy. Literally. I fell asleep with a blanket in the open air and it was magnificent. The room itself was spacious . Ample closer and storage . Bathroom was spacious, clean and modern. Shower nice and large and great water pressure. Didn't get to meet Mary in person as she had affairs attend to in Atlanta , but I met her husband and he was just in lovely in person as she was on the phone! Mary left me a personal note and a list of great places to eat, drink and check out! Her husband gave me great advice on breweries and new distilleries! Plenty of blankets and towels. They provided an additional heater for me upon my request. Near everything ! Really loved the property and would come again!
Cons- I drank quite a bit from all the brewery hopping and when I awoke on the middle of the night I was so dehydrated and there is no access to the kitchen:( also there were many times I ate at restaurants and had left overs and had to leave them because there is no acces to kitchen and no minidresses to store or microwave to heat up food. So in that regard I feel I wasted money and food food. Portions in Asheville are large and I spent my time trying to stuff my face, lol. I know they spoke about making one of the large closets a Mini kitchenette which I hope they do sooner than later . I like to eat and have water and beer in my room . Lol. There's a cute chubby cat that roams the property. He scared the crap out of me one night cause the doors are glass. That's not really a con than more to prepare you mentally. He was quiet and curious:) Floors are concrete so bring slippers or Sandals in colder months.
