Love this hotel! Everyone—and I mean everyone—was super friendly and welcoming. The room was cozy and comfortable. Best of all, you really cannot beat the location!
Staff is friendly and helpful. The decor in the rooms is very on brand to UVA- really fun. Location is right near “The Corner “. Coffeehouse on the main level, game room
On the second level and rooftop bar with indoor - outdoor seating. Highly recommend! Will be staying again.
I don't remember the woman's name, but the bartender on the 9th floor grille was great. Wonderful and considerate service to put our food order in 10 minutes before the kitchen closed. And pretty good singer/voice, to boot.
Front desk staff want very welcoming. Parking is limited. The hotel seems dark and dated and definitely needs some renovation. They are in the process of doing that now so some noise related to that….I might stay there again but not until the renovations are done. In the meantime, I’d stay elsewhere.

Disliked: Staff & service
sticky floors in room
ignored by staff at desk
denied early check in when people next to me checked in early
paid for parking but lot was full when returned at night
overall place needs a facelift
The room felt musty, and I wasn’t a fan of the service. I went upstairs to the restaurant for dinner and had to wait 10 minutes to even find the bartender and be acknowledged, and another 5 to wait for her to get off the phone. The elevator reeked of cigarette smoke.
The hotel is gorgeous with plenty of amenities. Shawn at the front desk was extremely helpful and kind and arranged a late check out for us when our flight was delayed until the evening. Shawn was always welcoming and smiling.
The hotel is in a great location for accessing University of Virginia ground. The room was well organized, clean, efficient with comfortable beds. The staff members at the front desk were very cordial and accommodating. There are enough food options inside and outside (nearby) hotel.
We booked the hotel via Expedia; and didn't expect that the hotel charge additional fee for parking in the garage daily.
