One of the first things I noticed was that even before I booked the room Carolyn was very responsive with her communication. When my wife and I walked into the room it literally felt like a home away from home. The room is tastefully decorated and it had everything that we needed & much more. Even the guest chocolates beside the bed were a nice touch. We had 100% privacy because the bathroom, bed, TV, refrigerator and microwave were all in our suite. We did not have to share bathroom nor living spaces with anyone. This was our first time visiting Asheville and Carolyn's house was only 1.5 miles from the Biltmore House which was our reason for visiting. The room smelled good and was clean. No residue from smoking nor pets was in the room and it just made for a very nice spot to relax in. If I ever go back to Ashville I will see if her suite is available. It was cozy, conveniently located to Biltmore and affordable.
