5.0 / 5.0
This quiet, well-laid out apartment is located in the beautiful tree-shaded Montford district, a short walk from a handful of excellent restaurants and conveniently close to stores like Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods. Downtown Asheville is a few minutes away by bicycle or a fifteen minute walk. Asheville is a very fun town to explore and getting around is easy. I hope to visit again soon and will certainly try to book the “Baird Nest” again.

I loved my stay at Montford Ave. The apartment is very sweet! I stayed for3 weeks. I love how the apartment is laid out, makes a "studio" feel like a one bedroom. Cozy, clean, and the location is unbeatable. I could get to anything in 5-10 minutes. Trader Joes and Wholefoods, practically walkable, All Day Darling Cafe one block away for wonderful coffee/breakfast. Shakespeare in the park walkable. The kitchen is very substantial. Livingroom is spacious. It's really amazing how well laid out this apartment is. Loved the keyless access. shaded parking. Michael was very responsive to any needs I had.

I had a wonderful experience staying here. Michael was an incredible host. The apartment was so clean and beautiful. The view of Montford and the mountains was so beautiful. The location is incredible and I loved getting to know the area and my neighbors. Chiesa is a phenomenal restaurant and the owner Newton was so helpful and a great neighbor to have. Overall this place is a great place to stay fo a get away or for anyone who is wanting to get to know Montford and Asheville more. Enjoy!!! ❤️❤️❤️

This property was perfect for my wife and I. The location is ideal. You can walk to downtown from here, walk around the beautiful Montford neighborhood, and you have easy access to both interstate highways (I-240 and I-26). The owner is helpful and easy to communicate with. The unit has everything you need.

We really enjoyed staying at this apartment. It is well set up for a small place and very comfortable for my wife and I. The location is great as well - Montford is a beautiful section of Asheville with restored older homes. Loved walking around there. It is also an easy on-off to the highway. We took advantage of the restaurant (Chiesa) in the lower level. Food was excellent. The outdoor seating was helpful given the pandemic. There is dedicated parking for the apartment. We stayed for 4 weeks. We would highly recommend taking advantage of Michael’s hospitality. It was definitely worth it for us. We would stay there again!

We loved this place. Here for a full month, it's very clean and well stocked. Owner easy to deal with. Fell in love with Chiesa restaurant downstairs and ate there repeatedly. They took great care of us. Have to fight with the restaurant patrons for your curbside parking but always got in the lot. Walk to downtown Asheville. Eat at Tod's Tasties repeatedly. Great locations to get everywhere. Highly recommended.

My husband and I shared this perfect apartment--both of us with "projects" in Asheville. I could easily walk to UNC-A through the lovely Montford neighborhood and Reed Creek Greenway and he could connect with colleagues by meandering downtown. Groceries and great restaurants / coffee shops are all near by so it was easy to quickly feel at home in the neighborhood. Close enough to walk to the River Arts District and easy access to explorations further afield. Having a very welcoming restaurant downstairs was perfect and amazingly no restaurant noise penetrated to our comfy spot. A lovely spot to mix work and holiday -- or just holiday.

2.5 / 5.0
I had the opportunity to spend 6 weeks here and my overall rating would be 5/5. The location is fantastic and I was able to bike, walk or run to grocery stores, restaurants and the downtown area. The studio itself is beautiful and comes with everything you would need for a weekend or even an extended stay. There are no washer/dryer machines (at the time of my stay) so be prepared to do laundry if staying for a longer duration. There is also dedicated parking for guests which was nice especially on weekends.The landlord/owner was friendly and non-intrusive and was able to remedy my only issue with the place (loud music from the restaurant below).
