The perfect downtown condo

Beautiful two bedroom condo situated above a wonderful Indian restaurant near one end of the Cville walkable mall.The beds are cloud-like soft, the ceilings high and the kitchen is vintage, combining to create a fun and wonderful atmosphere for whoever stays on the property.Located within nlocks of restaurants, bars, shopping and events, this was the prrfect place to spend a week visiting friends and family.

Fun Location!

We enjoyed our stay while visiting UVA. Location was fun on the downtown square, but directly above a restaurant and near bars was very noisy on a Friday night. We also had the luck of a marathon that ran through downtown Saturday morning, quite early, which was a little rough. The decor is nice, but some wear is apparent and beds could use a refresh as they were saggy and seemed little worn out. Towel rack in upstairs bath fell off when taking off a towel. Overall, would recommend for anyone who wants to be within walking to the charming old town, restaurants, bars and cute coffee shops.

Charlottesville stay

While the overall stay was pleasant, street lights beamed and flashed all night - the drapes did not completely cover the windows. There are great restaurants just a few feet away.

Nice location

Only thing I would recommend the owner do is invest in a new bed and possibly better pillows for the downstairs room. Very uncomfortable spring mattress that was also extremely noisy with even the slightest movements. My wife and I had 3 pretty poor nights of sleep. However, the apartment itself was pristine and beautiful. Location is unparalleled. Easy remedy.

Perfect location & great views

This apartment was in the perfect location on the mall and just a short drive to the UVA campus, Monticello, and other sites. It had all the kitchen items you would need and smart TVs in every room, and the Nespresso coffee maker was great! My kids enjoyed the great views from the apartment windows and roof balcony.

Big City Connection w/ Close by Natural Wonder

The apartment has been maintained very well. All was provided for the stay to be even more comfortable than expected. The location is right above the Charlottsville mall so you are always close to wonderful restaurants and feel connected to the local community. Also, an incredible coffee shop (LoneLight directly across the street from the entrance to the apartment. It is also a fairly quick trip to visit incredible sites like Monticello, local vineyards, and Skyline Drive. I would very much recommend staying here.
