We arrived at the Mimosa Room in mid afternoon for an overnight stay. Martha greeted us warmly and showed us around the property, giving us some recommendations on where to eat, and generally being the perfect host, even though she was not feeling her best. The Room is located in a very quiet neighborhood on a ridge above the French Broad River (with views in the winter, we were told). It takes about 5 minutes by car to get into town, and about the same to get to the interstate - a great location. The bed is a nice futon - I slept fine, but know it's not everyone's cup of tea. In summary, this was a perfect spot for what we wanted - a quiet, reasonably-priced getaway close to town, with a great host.
