We had a fantastic 3 days in Ashville and Kate's place was simply perfect. The location was so convenient to the downtown, and yet there were so many places within walking distance.
While there we went for out daily runs in and around the neighborhood and river. There is a fantastic coffee house just minutes away. Care to rent bikes, there was a place for that too...
As far as the actual accommodations, it was so comfortable. I think the only heads up would be that if you are looking for a place for a full kitchen (we were not), this would not work for you. But if you are looking for a wonderfully comfortable relaxing place to rest your head, located in a beautiful neighborhood, this is your place.
As far as the host, a perfect 10!
