Guest Access:
You’ll have private access to the entire studio. Entry is via a smartlock—code sent 2 days before check-in.
The Neighborhood:
If you want to explore West Asheville, there's a great website OnHaywood dot com (spelled out because Airbnb removed the link). This website has links and info on West Asheville restaurants, shops, music venues, clubs and businesses. Haywood Rd is the main street in West Asheville. Our Airbnb is on Haywood Rd, on the east side, between the River Arts District and central West Asheville. Some people call it "East West Asheville" because it is the east side of west Asheville.
Some of my favorite places on Haywood Road are (in no particular order):
Coffee Shops:
Battle Cat
Odds Cafe
Izzy's Coffee Shop
Breakfast:
King Daddy's Chicken and Waffles
Sunny Point Cafe
Biscuit Head
West End Bakery
Lunch and Dinner:
West End Bakery (lunch only)
Zia Taqueria
Taco Billy's
Nine Mile (Jamaican Pasta)
Buffalo Nickel
The Admiral (dinner)
WALK
Standard Pizza
Banditos
Breweries/Pubs:
Oyster House Brewery
Universal Joint
UpCountry Brewing
The Wedge Brewery (River Arts District)
Urban Orchard (cider)
Westville Pub
Music Venues:

The Mothlight
The Grey Eagle (River Arts District)
Dive Bars:
The Double Crown
Desoto Lounge

I hope this helps, but feel free to let me know if you have questions.
Getting Around:
Walk to local restaurants, bakeries, and shops. Downtown and River Arts are just a quick drive or Uber away.
Other Things to Note:
This is an upstairs unit with private entry. Please note there’s no elevator. This apartment sits above a separate lower-level unit and next door to a working lumber yard — daytime noise is common, especially on weekdays. It’s walkable to the best of West Asheville, but expect some city bustle. Not ideal for light sleepers or those seeking total seclusion.
Interaction with Guests:
We’re here if you need anything, but you’ll have full privacy and autonomy.
