Host communicated promptly and the arrival and departure instructions were provided efficiently all at once, and were simple. Check-in was a breeze. Location of the apartment was awesome, you could easily walk to grocery stores, restaurants and coffee shops (including the one downstairs). Apartment was kept in good condition and the beds were very comfortable. Thanks for a great stay!

The condo was the perfect size for 3 adults. There was a bakery/breakfast shop and a bar/restaurant on the first level, which was extremely convenient for us since we did not know our way around. Location was perfect for visiting the downtown area and the River Arts District.

This property was perfect for a quick girls trip to Asheville! The location to downtown was excellent and just a quick Uber/Lyft ride. The neighborhood felt safe during the day and night.

Great property just outside the bustle of downtown, but close enough to take it all in. Having the bakery and restaurant downstairs was a great convenience. Made for a great stay.

Great place to stay downtown

Great location and check-in was incredibly easy. Place was perfect for 4 people. The only reason I am giving 4 stars is because check-in was fairly late (4PM) and no early check-in was available.

We chose to take advantage of the great food and luxury spas in the area. The experience of this stay was exceptional. While the area is rather busy it’s still very peaceful. I will definitely stay here again.

We loved it. Location is terrific, super clean. Maybe more towel hooks in the smaller bathroom? We lived staying there, and Bone & Broth is a terrific restaurant. Enjoyed the bakery, also.

Great apartment, excellent location

We loved our weekend stay to celebrate our friend’s birthday. The apartment was clean, nicely decorated, and located close to everything we wanted (hikes, restaurants, breweries). The beds were comfortable and the shower water pressure was perfect! Thank you so much for the thoughtful details — coffee, sugar and creamers. Just what we needed!

The unit is in a fantastic location with wonderful food options underneath! The only negative thing about the unit is the noise from the street, otherwise it is a very nice spot.

This property was in a great location, was extremely clean, comfy, and had good check in and our procedures. This is located on the third floor with no elevator and the stairs were kind of steep. Definitely got our workout in. Overall amazing experience. Will definitely visit again!

Great location

Our VRBO at the Historic St James Building was delightful. Our trip was a girls trip (three women 50+) so we wanted to be close to downtown, but not IN downtown. One of the bedrooms was very small and you had to squeeze around to get to the other side of the bed, but it was manageable. Other than that it was perfect.

Exactly as advertised and so clean!

We loved this renovated space. The rooms were all exactly as pictured. It had all of the supplies you could need while staying. It was such a handy location with easy parking. We loved having City Bakery downstairs – they did a great job! We had one issue while staying, and they came to fix it immediately. When we come back, we will absolutely stay here.

Weekend Adventure

We were in the area for a weekend gymnastics meet. The property was in a convenient location to everything we needed. We did not spend a lot of time in the rental because we were exploring all beautiful Asheville and surrounding areas have to offer when we had free time. Easy to get to from the highway, good communication with property management, fantastic bakery and restaurants on the first level are the icing on the cake of this rental! We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay.

Friends Getaway

This property was just as listed online. It was so cute and comfortable. It was in a nice neighborhood. The only con was that it was very loud there. Trash trucks ran at 5:30 and made lots of noise which woke us up.
