This condo is beautiful and well designed, and the photos accurately depict everything. The kitchen is truly amazing! For older folks and those with mobility issues, it should be noted that the stairs all have banisters that are easy to maneuver. The downtown location has positive attributes, with many excellent restaurants and cultural venues in walking distance. The recommended parking garage was an easy walk and was very safe and accessible. Certainly having a fire station close by results in some siren noise which would be expected. What wasn’t expected was the noise from the nightclub two doors down that resulted in overwhelming music vibration one night in particular, and additional party noise on the street and in the back parking lot. Karen was extremely sympathetic to that difficult night. Asheville has become very much a young people’s vibrant town, so one should anticipate some of the hustle and bustle at night that accompanies such a vibe.
