If you love quirky old buildings, don't mind communal bathrooms (the set up here is easy to manage), and are seeing a show at the Orange Peel, this is the coolest place to stay! Tons of shops and great restaurants within easy walking distance (park the car for $12/day in the garage right down the street and let it sit there). The Orange Peel is literally across the street, making this the fastest and easiest trip home after a concert you've ever had. These folks were great at communication and we had a very warm welcome. Just about everything we needed was in the room- extra towels for makeup removal, glasses, mini-fridge, sharp knife and cutting board. The house itself has carefully tended plants everywhere and books stacked on the shelves for sharing. Check out Mamacita's across the street for tacos, Over Easy a few blocks down the street for breakfast and the food co-op next door for all kinds of great finds. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Asheville!
