The apartment was just what we needed for our short stay in Asheville. Melissa provided everything we needed and I enjoyed having the bottled water and coffee pot. Once we figured out the crazy streets of the city we were able to get downtown in about 5 minutes. Parking at the appt. was right outside of the entrance so we were fine with my SUV but be warned that large vehicles will have some issues as the streets are narrow and the downtown parking garages can't handle pickup trucks.
