I absolutely LOVED this place. What an amazing value. This is a true hidden GEM. I had the pleasure of staying in Allison’s & Peter’s home and holy smokes, this was the easiest, most straight-forward experience I’ve had with AirBnB. It’s clear that Allison and Peter have been doing this for a long time, and they really know what they’re doing. Since they live on a mountain, they let you know where to park and not to park, they give you precise instructions to enter the very secure house with its keypad locks for the main door and room door, and they let you know where your room is located so when you enter you know where to go and also where you can’t go in the house. I arrived late and was extra appreciative of all of this, as I didn’t have to arrange a time to meet them, or disturb them while sleeping. I saw they have two other listings in their home with thousands of positive reviews so they’re clearly pros at this and seem to have every detail addressed for whatever question you might have—all ahead of time. That’s rare in the AirBnB world I’ve come to find out. Oddly, I read a note written in their guest book by a previous guest who were calling them terrible people because they were denied use of their private kitchen. It seems that person wanted more than they paid for, and hadn’t ever been told “no” in their life before. I can definitely see how someone who doesn’t follow directions or doesn’t feel inclined to follow rules wouldn’t be a good fit for this listing. These guys have everything spelled out in detail. If you read Allison’s & Peter’s aforementioned clear and detailed directions, access to the rest of their home isn’t permitted. Good for them for holding their boundaries. And the room and super clean private bathroom I got was priced at just that—a room without bells and whistles. I knew I wasn’t getting a kitchen ahead of time. Though I was thrilled the room had a small fridge and a coffee pot that I could boil water—you don’t get those things at a budget hotel, yet there I had them. I met Peter & Allison the next morning when I was checking out and they were very kind, and thanked them for having such a detail oriented and clear and easy place to stay. If you’re visiting or passing through Asheville, I think this place might be the best in town for the price they offer it at.
