This was the perfect weekend retreat for two old friends. The kitchen had everything we needed, the balcony was lovely, and the couch was perfect for marathon chats. Comfortable beds and really lovely decor. Jean was a great host and checked in with us frequently. Highly recommend staying here!

Perfect!
Everything was perfect! Easy checkin/checkout, host was attentive/available, but not interfering, home was very clean and well provided, location was quiet, driveway parking for one vehicle *extra on-street parking and the back porch was nice for morning/evening coffee/drinks. Would highly recommend as well as stay again.

Lovely little apartment
The apartment was very clean, calming and relaxing which was appreciated after our 8 hour drive there. The view was beautiful and the location was perfect. Within short driving distance of Biltmore and downtown Asheville. The owners are very nice and checked in on us a couple of times. We would definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a peaceful place to stay while on vacation.

Darling retreat
This was a darling and immaculate property. It was as perfect for a quick getaway to Asheville. Strategically located between downtown and Biltmore Village it was easy to go anywhere we wanted. Jean did a lovely job decorating and keeping everything fresh and well stocked. We would gladly return on a future trip.

Really a great property to stay at if you're visiting the area. Great proximity to the Biltmore and the shops in Biltmore Village. A mall is 6 minutes away as well. The road up to the property is twisty, but you're rewarded with the balcony view.

Just what we needed.
We needed to be close to Mission Hospital and this VRBO's location was ideal. It was a good size for three of us. As noted, the kitchen is small but it served the purpose of being able to accommodate breakfast and snacks. Great communication with the host, who lives on the property. Would stay here again.

Easy check in process and beautiful place! We loved the deck. The kitchen is very small but was fine for a short weekend. You could not cook a large meal in the kitchen but it was perfect for snacking and making drinks! We appreciated the provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash in the shower.

Asheville vacation
The apartment was great. Very neat and clean. The bed was comfortable. The location was very convenient. The bathroom was well stocked and very clean. The only negatives were; the couch wasn't very comfortable. The one corner seat was very worn and hard. The only other drawback was that we couldn't access network TV. We were able to watch Netfix, which was nice. Overall, a great place to stay.

Overall good
The apartment is a nice size and very clean. Mini kitchen had the necessities we needed. It was the lower level of the owner's house which is fine but good to know ahead of time (can hear voices sometimes). Host was lovely and communicated very well. We would have liked to be able to watch TV in the bedrooms. Netflix only worked in the living room but not the bedrooms - there was a dvd player and some options but nothing we would have watched :)
