We booked this place last minute for a weekend getaway to Asheville, and although it’s above average for other listings in Asheville- we figured it was worth it because of the hot tub and the convenience of booking last minute.
It’s located in West Asheville with lots of restaurants nearby, and only a 10min drive to downtown Asheville.
The place wasn’t as clean as we would’ve liked: walking in, it has a strong musky smell (this listing is in a basement) so that’s to some extent understandable. However, the carpet has some stains that look like/smell like animal pee (e.g. one right in front of the bedroom) This listing does take animals (we ourselves came with our dog), but I figured the pet fee they charge is used towards cleaning.
Another thing we disliked is that this place lists 2 beds, and while we paid the additional 25 for a set of sheets to use the second bed, the bed wasn’t set up nor made when we arrived in the airbnb. It took us a while to set it up. Ultimately we figured it out, but for the price we are paying we would’ve liked a bit more hospitality.
Lastly, we truly enjoyed the hot tub! We had a relaxing evening after our hike. The only thing that we thought was odd is that we couldn’t find any lights, so after it went dark, we were sitting in the tub in the dark. Perhaps we didn’t see the light switch? We looked for it in the am and still didn’t see one, but willing to give the benefit of the doubt.
Host was very responsive with messages, including texting back quickly when we couldn’t check into the room. Very appreciated.
Overall not a bad experience, but wouldn’t stay here again.
