This apt. was a great place to stay. The location in the Biltmore village puts you in the middle of a lot of action. There are several great restaurants, shops and breweries within walking distance and it is also a short ride from downtown. We didn't use the kitchen much but it seemed to have all the cooking tools you could possibly want. The whole space was very spacious and clean. And although it is in close proximity to The Cantina, a delicious Mexican restaurant, you can neither hear nor smell the restaurant. I will definitely be recommending this to any of our friends or family who travel to Asheville.
