Fantastic location. Amazing main Inn architecture. The tiny streets are daunting the first time you try to navigate out of the inn, but totally fine once you know where you're going.
Would definitely stay here again if we come back to Asheville in the future.
The staff was helpful and nice. The Serenity Suite was perfectly clean, cozy and quiet. Nice Continental Breakfast. The homemade granola which was a nice touch, with many other choices.
Staff showed us great hospitality and the inn is historic and beautiful. We had a very comfortable room and really enjoyed the daily breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay.
The owner was so gracious and tave me a toir. The large fireplace on the main floor is so cozy and romantic. Light refreshments and wine were a nice touch to the holiday
Liked the peaceful stay and the convenient location. Did not want to leave.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Very nice woodwork, antiques, and stained glass in this 130 year old B&B. Christy was a fabulous hostess and had good stories to tell about the building, the city and the food they served.
Convenient parking right by the front door. We didn’t have breakfast there. Staff was polite and accommodating. The room was small, but fit our needs for a brief stay.
The atmosphere was warm and exciting - we were excited to be there. The room was clean and oh so comfortable. The porch was great for hanging out with a bottle of wine.Breakfast was wonderful (Home made granola!) as well as the host - very friendly.
This is what a B&B is supposed to be. We will be back.
