Probably the best location we could’ve had, no need for a car to explore the city as we are in downtown. Interior was amazing, plenty of amenities and great views. Would 100% book again if i’m ever in the area

The apartment is very comfy and the owners have done a lot to mitigate the light coming in early morning and the train sounds when the GSMR is active. Short walks to everything in town and conveniently close to the GSMNP and Blue Ridge Parkway.

Great communication with changing dates and parking during the busy Polar Express time. The location was amazing. Kind of like a storefront and I loved the downtown atmosphere! It’s so convenient and clean.
