Alexandra was an exceptional host! She gave us great recommendations for places to eat in Asheville and for hiking nearby and in the smokies. We arrived in the late morning and she allowed us to check in early and even to check out late on the last day. The place was awesome, in a quiet neighborhood, with lots of light, great water pressure in the shower, a parking spot and thoughtful amenities including french press coffee. We did find that there was some noise that traveled through the floor/hallways from upstairs (hosts live upstairs) when we were trying to take naps during the afternoons after early morning hikes (probably due to a wood floor above us and also a connecting stairwell), but this was not a problem when getting to sleep at nighttime. We would definitely recommend Alexandra’s place!
