Ben's house is very well located in a quiet spot but easy access to downtown and the surrounding Asheville area. Accommodations were simple but included the basic necessities. The weather was such that we could leave the windows open the whole time. You can hear the highway with the windows open but it never bothered us. We closed them for a few hours in the evening and you can hardly hear the highway when they're closed. Considering all the cost of over accommodation options in this area during this season, this was a good value and we would stay here again.
