You are truly blocks from everything downtown and if you rather not walk you can take a $5 Uber. Downtown Asheville has a lot to offer especially if you like craft beer and Vegan/Plant-based food. However a true beer snob must take the 15 minute drive to the Sierra Nevada brewery and take the free tour (register online weeks before arriving) that also has you taste test eight of their beers. It i simply amazing. As a friend describes it, "Disney for Adults". I would be remissed if I did not mention the Biltmore estate is just a ten minute drive. And to top all of this off, Jon was the most gracious of hosts. We definitely will be back.
