Lovely spot for a quick overnight

The front desk staff were so kind and welcoming. The room was in great shape, comfy bed and all the amenities I needed for a quick over night in Charlotesville. Quite quiet as well even with the proximity to busy roads.

The room reeked of pets and probably urine on the carpet. I requested for another room, the staff said they are fully booked. They did not seem interested at all and just kept us waiting at the front desk for 10min while attending phone calls. It was hard to breathe and the kids had to take allergy medication. Never coming back here.

We arrived on Friday for the weekend - TV in the room would not work; they did come and fix it. Website says there is a restaurant and bar onsite - NOT! Did not get any housekeeping on Saturday. Called before going out at 4:30pm that we needed housekeeping - dump trash, give us NEW towels and Toilet Paper. Came back from a concert at midnight and housekeeping still hadn't been there. Called Guest Services and complained they finally brought us up 2 towels and a roll of toilet paper. AWFUL Experience will never stay here again.
