This property was very clean and as described, inside. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I could very easily hear the upstairs neighbors even though they weren't being noisy and because the walk from the sidewalk to the front door of this unit was slightly treacherous or could be for some people. It's an incline and only partially paved (with pavers) and the plants around the area were leaning over the pathway. If the path could be a little better kept up, that would be helpful. I stayed here while attending a retreat at Lake Juneluska and it was within easy walking distance. I appreciated being able to get away by myself at bedtime.

Pleasant place to stay, very convenient

The studio, I guess you would call it was ok. I’m assuming it was a garage conversion to a studio. The floor was concrete and had rugs throughout. Mostly to cover the cracks in the foundation. Not much of privacy when going to the restroom, but since it’s the wife and I was ok. The main issue was the bed arrangement. The headboard wasn’t attached so it banged against the wall everytime you flipped over to try and get comfortable. The bed itself was pushed completely against the wall so me a 52 year old guy had to climb across from the foot of the bed to get in and out. And to get up in the middle of the night to go woke my wife up everytime. Should have at least maybe centered it to at least be able to shimmy your way in. But there were pipes there and I now understand why it was where it was. But minor issues but wanted to point them out.
