All of the prior reviews are accurate and the condo was what I needed it to be while I was in town to check on renovations to a vacation home. The unit was very clean, well appointed and orderly, no concerns or complaints. For a condo, the kitchen is large and you could absolutely cook meals here if you needed to. The facility seemed secure and getting in and out was very easy. Communication from the owner was very clear. It’s truly a 5-7 minute walk to busier areas of downtown. Nitpicky complaint: the pillows and mattress were not my taste. I sleep on a firm mattress at home and I wasn’t comfortable. Note for consideration: Asheville has always had a noticeable transient population. As a previous reviewer noted, you are right across from the bus station and you will be approached for money if you walk anywhere In fairness, this will likely happen downtown as well, but it’s not threatening. Asheville is a very tolerant, welcoming place for all. You will also hear the buses coming and going until about midnight and starting again at around 6am.
