I unfortunately did not have the best stay here. While Robin has put a lot of work into making the space comfortable and well equipped, the house is ultimately very old & more exposed to the elements.
Throughout my stay, I continued to be woken up at night by commotion in the basement (I was told by Robin it was likely due to groundhogs which apparently come out this time of year). The noise was rather startling. In the walls of the building, I'd often hear movement and scratching at night. This also seemed to be localized to close to the front of the house, which at night gave the distinct impression that someone was trying to pry open the front door. Needless to say, I had a really difficult time getting a good night's sleep for the entirety of my stay.
There seems to be many small crevices that open to the basement in the house as well because Camel Crickets would find their way into the house & be jumping around. During my stay, I found numerous crickets in the kitchen, living room, and in the bedroom I stayed in. I had also never seen these large (spider-looking) crickets before, so these encounters definitely left a strong impression on me.
Robin has reassured me that an exterminator will be called before the next visitor books (and offered to do so during my stay as well). I hope future visitors have a more positive experience than me, but I will not be staying here again for future visits to Asheville.
