Yelena was there to greet us when we arrived, although that was not necessary, it was a nice touch. We all chatted for a bit: Yelena is a considerate, lovely and thoughtful host who takes pride in her home, offering anything you might need to make your stay comfortable. The accommodations were tidy and clean, plenty of extra linens, towels and blankets if needed. The bed was super comfy. I was unsure of the location, she is just a tad off the beaten path, but nothing is ever too far in the Asheville area. We would stay with Yelena again.
