This is a really cute property. The manager Jake was really helpful and assisted us in making brunch reservations at the Inn's restaurant. Our room was very large, clean and was beautifully decorated. We were in Room #1. The only downside was that the restaurant below our room was fairly loud. If you want to sleep in, it is not the place for you to stay.

We had a great stay. The innkeeper is lovely and very attentive to your needs. The included breakfast is excellent! And, the dining area is beautiful and cozy. The room was clean and well appointed. The inn is close to UVA Health Center and the Charlottesville Mall - both are walkable. Would stay here again.

Historic inn near, The Corner, in Charlottesville close to UVA. Vanessa, the inn’s hostess, was equally welcoming, charming, and helpful. Stayed in Jefferson Suite which was rustic, yet beautiful and luxurious. The well appointed suite fronts Main Street, with some street noise during day, but quiets down considerably during sleep hours. Excellent breakfast at Farm Bell restaurant-highly recommended…

One night visit
It’s definitely old with peeling paint and could use some new carpets. Television wasn’t working and no assistance was available. I feel I should have been compensated in some way. It would be nice to have coffee/ tea maker in room and an ice machine available. Bed was comfortable and manager helped with our luggage. Breakfast was okay nothing special but waitress was great!

This place is so charming and beautiful! Vanessa, the inn keeper is thoughtful and caring. She took the initiative and reserved me a table for breakfast at the restaurant on site. She walked me to my room and gave me a warm welcome.

Madison room
I stayed one night for business. The staff was extremely accommodating and went out of their way to welcome me and facilitate my stay. The bed was a dream, so comfortable. The bathroom was a bit tight and might be a little difficult for a larger person to maneuver around the door. The sink was also half covered by the shelf above it. Really nice bath products! Bathroom floor could use a deep clean, but sink, toilet, and shower, were very clean. As mentioned on the website, this room (the Madison room), is directly up the stairs from the restaurant, so if you're a light sleeper, it could be hard to sleep in after 8am. Breakfast was ok, but the service was good. The amount of real maple syrup (for an extra charge) with my waffle was laughable. I actually laughed when I saw it. Very convenient to UVA hospital and UVA campus (grounds). Included garage parking is a bonus.
