Our two top criteria were exceeded: Location and Kitchen! Michele's place was ideal for our 30-day stay in Asheville. The location was central to many of the places we frequented, especially Greenlife and the Asheville Yoga Center, close to the greenway for taking a walk. We were in Asheville for the whole month of January, with below average cold temps, but we stayed toasty in Michele's place. Had it not been so cold we'd probably have walked to Greenlife, the yoga center and downtown. I loved the expansive counter space in the kitchen and the table with seating in the middle of it. Communication was excellent prior to arrival and throughout our stay. Michele provided some nice local samples.
