My husband and I came to Asheville for a 4 day trip and this apartment was perfect! It is a block from the main downtown area, a couple blocks from local breweries, one freeway exit from the grocery store, and within 30-40 minutes of some awesome mountain hikes! We felt very safe in the town, walking outside at all times of the day, and ubers were plentiful when we needed them. We brought our two small dogs with us and felt the city was incredibly dog friendly- as was the apartment building (poop bags at every entryway!) The apartment is newly renovated, clean, and just enough space for 2 people. Jonathan was traveling when we arrived, but had someone there ready to greet us, and was back for an easy and laidback checkout. We will definitely return to Asheville, and definitely rent this spot again!
