Please note that, as often is the case when staying in a downtown neighborhood, you will inevitably have encounters with folks from all walks of life, including members of the unhoused population of our city. Among the neighbors on our street, is a service center that helps folks find housing and you will no doubt see some of their clients as you are walking down the street. We welcome you to read our reviews and notice that by and large, our guests feel safe and unbothered by this fact. Moreover, Downton Annie is a secure building with security cameras, locks, and the local police are never far if you feel unsafe but we want our guests to be able to have all of the facts at hand so they can choose in accordance with their level of comfort, as you will read in the reviews that it's not for everyone. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask before booking - we're here to set you up for a satisfying visit.

Hurricane stay
The property itself was very nice, clean and in a good location. The halfway house across the street was not an issue. Our stay was challenging but due to no fault of the owners. We were there in the middle of the hurricane. We had no power, water and cell service most of the stay. We were able to make the best of it but left early to get out of the area while we could.

Responsive host, unclean stay
Got in around midnight and there was someone sleeping by the back stairs, bedding in both rooms was dirty, hair everywhere. Immediately contacted host, as directed in property binder, and received a response immediately. The property manager said they couldn’t see anyone sleeping on the back porch and asked me to go out and take a picture (which I said I was not comfortable doing) and there was a camera pointed right at the location where someone was sleeping (we looked the next morning). Was reassured cleanliness issues would be addressed the next day. Luckily we were around when the cleaning company came in, because they were only going to change one of the beddings. Unfortunately they never vacuumed even though host stated they would change both beds and vacuum. Not worth the price, especially to not have a clean stay. Location was convenient to walking anywhere downtown. As we were aware prior to booking, it was right across from a homeless shelter so there were people sleeping on the sidewalk ant night and hanging out there during the day. After the first night, we didn’t have an issue with anyone sleeping by the back porch. Currently there is road construction going on, so the street is pretty quiet at night. Overall, we would not stay again. Recommend a hotel downtown or a rental property on the other side of town because that felt safer walking around at night.

Beautiful PLace!
We stayed at the Annie #3 and the place was absolutely beautiful! It really had everything you needed and then some. Coffee, creamer, filters, and all the pots and pans and extra stuff you would not think an Air B&B would have. It was really very nice to not need to get or bring anything other than normal groceries. This is by no means a negative review, but rather an informative one. The place is absolutely incredible, but the location no so much. It was rather uncomfortable with the homeless across the street for much of the day Friday. They are not there on Saturday and Sunday when that helping hand home is not open. But if you are there M-F, be prepared for alot of loitering of the homeless. They will not bother you, and the police were "making rounds", however, seeing some of the things going on were a little uneasy feeling. If I had kids, or was a single person, I would not feel comfortable being in that location.

Perfect location and comfortable apartment
We really enjoyed our 9 days at this cute little apartment. Our daughter was attending nearby camps so it was the perfect place for her to rest on the weekends and for us to do all her laundry! The apartment had everything you’d need, including very comfortable beds. We were aware from the description and comments of the homeless service center across the street, but it still takes you aback at first. However, we had no safety issues or concerns all week and walked to and from town frequently without any issues. The parking lot is very tight and a large car or truck would have trouble parking. The property managers were immediately responsive via text to a minor issue with the fridge and even brought over additional supplies as needed (ie paper towels and garbage bags). With its convenient location, it was easy to explore downtown by foot and the nearby Biltmore estate and Pisgah Forest by car. We would definitely stay again!

Cute apartment
The apartment is really cute and was comfortable. The parking is difficult at the property though. The parking spots are really only large enough for compact cars, and I assume another guest had similar issues because they claimed both spots for their one car. Other than being uncomfortable with the parking situation, the stay was fine. We were able to walk to a few nice restaurants and the apartment itself is nice.

The neighborhood was very unassuming, but it is ideally located, near entrances to the highway, close to a sweet part of downtown. The apartment was clean and comfortable. I believe the description of the apartment and neighborhood was very accurate. I got emails and information in the VRBO app in a timely manner. Overall I would stay there agina and I would recommend it to other visitors.

Cute and convenient
A cozy, modern apartment with a very attractive location. This place is a very short walk from Tupelo Honey and Red Ginger, which is our go-to eateries. Then only a few extra minutes to hit the strip and do some shopping at Mast. The apartment was very comfortable and inviting. They even included coffee, which I really appreciated. We'll definitely be staying here again!

Very well equipped, clean efficient place close to downtown
This was probably the best equipped short term rental we have stayed in. Even included necessities for cooking such as oil, salt, pepper and a full spice rack. All cookware and utensils, dishes for serving as well. Parking was convenient right behind the property and I was able to charge my EV from an outdoor wall plug, which was a nice benefit. There is a homeless services building across the street which attracts some questionable characters and their interactions among each other, including at odd times, plus the emergency responders to go long with it. This did not present problems for us but certainly something to understand - it is described transparently in the listing. Note the bedrooms are located toward the back of the building so the noise is minimal. Outside security cameras are present throughout the property. Otherwise the place is within walking distance of just about any establishment downtown which was super convenient. There's a small playground a few blocks south for those traveling with small kids.

Lovely Place/Great Walkability/Everything You Need
We had a great stay at the Downton Annie!! The place is clean and has everything you will need for your visit (including a cooler for a road trip). Walking in to town is easy and we did it at all times of day or night. The entrances are well lit so it was easy to use the keyless entry. We had no issues with the homeless services facility across the street (although I wish there was more details provided about what takes place there and perhaps 'how to give back' information. We can recommend the place highly. Parking is tight but manageable. We give thumbs up to these places: 9 mile, the funkatorium, itto ramen, Chai Pani, and cook out, Gingers revenge (ginger beer), and Highland Brewery. Have a great visit!

About the host

Hosted by Sarah, reservationist

Host profile image
The owner, Jeremy Goldstein has made 32 North Ann Street a project since he purchased the property in 2002, slowly making improvements, while running his business in the building directly next door. Over the past 20 years, Jeremy has built a successful multi-disciplinary real estate practice. Jeremy graduated cum laude from Duke University in 1994 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Public Policy Studies. He held salesperson licenses in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia and currently maintains broker licenses in North Carolina and South Carolina. Mr. Goldstein advises private and institutional investors nationwide in the acquisition, disposition, and financing of commercial property. He married an Asheville native, and together they moved to Asheville to raise their four sons. He spends his “free” time traveling with his family to their sons’ sporting events. Eventually, he hopes to get back to hiking and biking in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina. But for now he manages to get to Crossfit — unfortunately well before the sun comes up, in addition to serving as Chairman of Asheville Planning & Zoning Commission and board member to Irene Wortham Center.

Why they chose this property

Like any such investment, careful thought and attention to detail are important. The properties location next door to Mr. Goldstein's offices, made the undertaking manageable, and a worthwhile investment.

What makes this property unique

In addition to the superb location, the Apartment has been completely renovated with brand new appliances and furnishings. The beautiful artwork is of the surrounding mountains and local graffiti art. Travelers will have the benefit of knowing the owner is in the building next door, as well as assistance from his friendly reservationist, Sarah, who has an intimate knowledge of downtown Asheville and will work to provide guests with an easy booking process and most importantly, recommendations for a memorable Asheville experience.
