This house was perfect for our sister's trip! The house was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook a couple of meals. The beds were comfortable and it was nice that each bedroom had a private bathroom. The location to the interstate and downtown Black Mountain was a plus. Our host, Monica was quick to respond to any questions we had. I would definitely stay here again. own barhrooms.The

The house was very cozy & comfortable! It truly felt like home away from home. You can tell they put a lot of thought into all the small things that make a big difference. We truly appreciated getting to stay here. Only critique is the showers water pressure was very weak, still got the job done, just took a little longer to do it.

This was our second stay at The Great Escape.. and it probably won't be our last. Kim does a great job of ensuring your stay feels like a home away from home while still giving the privacy, cleanliness and convenience of a well managed property.

Lovely holiday getaway

My cousin and I stayed here for 4 nights and absolutely loved it. Excellent location, less than a mile to downtown Black Mountain. Quiet neighborhood, fenced in yard for my pup, and a super clean home. Everything was well labeled and easy to use. We would absolutely stay here again!

Pro: Team was quick to answer questions, share recommendations, and made the check in/out process very easy. Subway station is steps away. Private outdoor space was wonderful to have. Located in a fun neighborhood. (However, it was not the Tribeca neighborhood as I understand at booking. It’s near the Empire State Building.) Washer/dryer in unit worked great. Price for a space with 3bd and kitchen was affordable.Con: The apartment felt tired and unkept. Space was very grimy. The carpets had spots everywhere and one had packing tape holding it down, wood floors had a weird film that got on your feet, white couch was spotty and gray patched, full length mirrors had oily, one remote for 3 TVs, only provision supplied was TP. Dishwasher soap, laundry soap, shower soap, kitchen sponge, hand soap I needed to purchase. There was a hand soap dispenser but it was empty. There was a kitchen sponge but was used and dirty. The kitchen cabinets were absolutely filled with oddities (one had rat traps) so no room to store groceries.I did not voice these comments with the host during my stay to avoid potential debates or coordinating cleaners returning during our stay. This therefore did not give the host a chance to potentially fix. There is a bar below but couldn’t really be heard most of the time. However, there’s a second story to the bar and it used one night for a trivia night with an amplifier and was like they were in the apartment it was so loud.

Jeff & Donna - not sure what apartment you stayed at in New York near the Empire State Building, but it does sound horrible! This review isn't even for my home in Black Mountain, NC. It's quite upsetting to me as a host to have this posted on my site. I pride myself in our outstanding ratings and now with this review (of not even my home) you brought it down. We are not very happy!
