Due to a job change, we planned a quick week long vacation at the beginning of June, and chose this rental due to the very reasonable rate, the description of the property and the pictures. You would be hard pressed to find a better value for your money in Ashevlle. I was not totally sure what to expect with just a mini-fridge and microwave, but believe it or not it was more than adequate. Although, I will admit a real kitchen would have been nice. We bought items from the grocery store for breakfast, made sandwiches for lunch to eat wherever we happened to be, and with the money we saved on breakfast and lunch, tried out new restaurants every night. Sometimes we picked up an order and brought it back to our basement apartment and other times we ate at the restaurant. We had good television coverage all but one night. We were following the College World Series which had just started while we were there. We are big fans of the College World Series champion Tennessee Vols, but we had left by the time the final 3 games were played.. Everything about staying at this rental was exactly, if not better, than advertised. My only suggestion is possibly a firmer bed. The landlord lives upstairs in the main house and is very helpful with directions, restaurants nearby and suggestions of places to check out. The next time we stay overnight in Asheville, we will definitely check to see if this place is available. We highly recommend.
