Michele is a fabulous host, and accommodates any question quickly. She offers a wealth of information on the attractions of downtown Asheville and the surrounding area, including great restaurants, spas, and the Biltmore estate to name a few. The apartment was clean, adorable, and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. It is also within walking distance of downtown, and boasts a lovely running/biking trail for the outdoorsy types! We just loved our stay and plan to return in the future. Asheville residents themselves are friendly and quirky, and they like it that way-as they say-"keep Asheville weird!"
