Joann’s place is VERY close to downtown Asheville.. it’s literally right off Haywood Dr.. a popular Main Street in Asheville that leads to downtown. She is less than 10 minute drive to the center of downtown. From her house you can bike to 3+ cute coffee shops.. ( a 3-4 min bike ride, 10 min walk). Her home is in close proximity to 2 very popular breakfast locations in AVL. Her home was clean, we had everything we needed. The porch was lovely and shaded. The neighborhood is quiet and safe- feeling. The bed was very comfortable and sheets were clean. Perfect place for value.
