Dedicated local owners are also the managers of this property, providing personalized touches and service to ensure your stay in Asheville is top notch.

You will be delighted with the gourmet kitchen, fully equipped with modern stainless appliances. The kitchen opens directly into the living area (which includes a super comfy queen sleeper sofa featuring a memory foam mattress); enjoy your meals at the kitchen bar or at the large metal dining table (seats 4) made by the owner. The bedroom offers a king bed with quality linens, an extra-large closet with organizers and a wall-mounted flat screen TV.

The reimagined food hall fulfills the market’s original mission by offering affordable, fresh fare, and the energy that made it an exciting destination so many years ago.

5-Star Review for S&W Cafeteria Condo
Our stay at the S&W Cafeteria Condo was absolutely perfect! The location couldn't have been better, putting us right in the heart of everything we needed. From the moment we walked in, it was clear how much care and attention had been put into making the condo a welcoming and comfortable retreat. The space was beautifully appointed, with thoughtful touches that made all the difference—fresh roses in a vase on the table were an especially lovely surprise! It truly felt like a home away from home. Karen, our host, was exceptional. Her communication was fantastic from start to finish, ensuring we had everything we needed for a great stay. Her kindness and attentiveness made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. We had such a wonderful time and can't recommend this condo enough. If you're looking for a place that's both cozy and convenient, with a host who goes above and beyond, this is it. A great time at a great place—thank you, Karen!

A perfect Asheville luxury hideaway
We had an absolutely wonderful stay in this stylish beautifully appointed Condo. The amenities and detail to care was top shelf. During our visit, the elevator developed a malfunction, but our host communicated with us about it and kept us up-to-date as it was being repaired.. This downtown condo is perfectly located to enjoy all the downtown as to offer. Can’t wait to go back.

NEARLY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY
we tend to stay at private property rentals rather than hotels and have high standards. we absolutely LOVED nearly everything about this apartment, including any communication with karen. the only thing that brought the star rating down (which i hated doing): paper thin walls. even so, we would consider staying there again as it checked so many boxes. FABULOUS downtown location, ground floor food options, furnishings & decor, bedding, cozy chic factor, lighting options, soundproofing between floors (ironically). getting back to the wall issue, if you go in knowing it's there, it could help. you can actually hear every word from the neighbor and/or TV along one side of the apartment (living room/bathroom/bedroom). it normally stops by 11pm and begins again around 8am. aside from that, this is an ideal downtown asheville rental for a single person or couple.

A perfect, last minute booking!
After we found out one of our daughters wasn’t able to get off for Thanksgiving, the rest of us decided to go to her within a 24 hour notice! We own our own rental property on the coast, and I’m in the travel industry where I travel all around the world viewing luxury properties. That all to say, I have stayed in many places. I was so excited when I found this condo, in the middle of downtown Asheville, above the food hall, in a beautiful historic building. I would call this a boutique condo- exposed brick walls, very cozy, yet full renovated and so comfortable. The host responded to all of my questions immediately and went above and beyond to be sure I had everything I needed to cook and bake a full Thanksgiving meal for my family.the condo was in a safe location, and walking distance to all the great bars, restaurants and shops. I already told the host that we’d be back. We loved it! Thank you!

Close to everything!
We so enjoyed our visit to this downtown condo. The check in directions were thorough and very clear, and the condo was nicely decorated and very comfortable. Karen was an absolutely amazing host, giving us general tips as well as information on closures associated with the hurricane aftermath. All of her restaurant suggestions as well as bars and tasting rooms were fabulous, and we could not have enjoyed ourselves more. The food hall on the first floor of the building was fabulous, with the coffee and biscuit place, Flour, our absolute favorite. Asheville was definitely ready to welcome Visitors and this place was within walking distance to everything. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic Condo
Everything about this place is first rate! The unit is beautiful and super quiet considering it’s in the middle of downtown. Location couldn’t be better for nearby restaurants, breweries, etc. Great food and drink options are right in the building too (be sure to check out Flour for coffee and biscuits). Karen is an excellent host and kept checking to see if we needed anything. Highly recommend!

We were in town for a show at rabbit rabbit. We chose this property due to its close proximity to the show and amenities. We were very pleased with the accommodations and attention to detail. Some examples were the stocking of the refrigerator with coffee creamers, frozen mugs and condiments. Thank you for a great stay!

Downtown Asheville—upstairs in the S&W Bldg
Loved everything about this apartment — the view, the room layout, well-appointed kitchen, quiet bedroom with comfy bed and linens, good towels and shower supplies, the thoughtfulness of hosts, and, of course, that amazing location. We walked to so many great restaurants and coffee houses, galleries and shops, and nearby attractions. Would especially recommend this for someone traveling alone—it’s above a secure building—or a couple.
