Cute basement apartment

Cute apartment, about 6 minutes from anything we wanted to do downtown. Ubers were about $10 to get to the arcade area and salvage station. Easy check-in.

Cozy spot close to breweries

Jillian's place is great! Very clean and all we needed for the weekend with our dog. It was close to the breweries, 5 minutes from New Belgium and the restaurants! One thing to keep in mind is that if you are a light sleeper your good night sleep may be dependent on who is staying upstairs. This didn't bother us for our stay, but you can hear folks upstairs walking and talking. Again not bad for our stay. Just something to note if you are a light sleeper. Overall great stay for a couple with a dog in Asheville!!!
