Allison's place is very well located for exploring the area. It has all the amenities you need, including air conditioning. It was nice to have a kitchen with all the utensils we needed to prep meals. I think the big dining room table was my favorite part. We could sit down for meals and use it to spread out maps for exploring. It is also within walking distance to some excellent restaurants in the area. We went to Blount Market and Kitchen and got some great things to prep for dinner. The place is unique and like an updated stay at Grandma's house. It's a very good value.
