Lovely spot close to everything in Asheville. Fabulous breakfasts! We'd give it a five other than this issue: If you are going in the summer ask for a room other than the Rose room. It is beautiful, charming and spacious but, as it faces the afternoon sun, the a/c just couldn't keep up. The hostess/manager offered us an extra fan that helped, but at the expense of quite a bit of noise overnight. The room eventually cools off - but not until well into the night.
