The location for this space makes it totally worth the price. If going out is part of what you plan to do in Asheville, make it easier on yourself and stay here. The space is ideal for a couple and would work well for a couple and a kid as well. The kitchen is well-equipped. The claw-foot bath tub is rad. The space is stylish. One warning: if you're a light sleeper and others in the building are not as respectful as they should be, you may have some trouble. However, if everyone in the building is being respectful, the older space (and slightly thinner floors and walls, as far as sound is concerned) is not a problem. HIGHLY recommend.
