We enjoyed our stay at the downtown carriage house! It was in a great location to downtown restaurants and bars. We didn't walk from the property to downtown but it is definitely possible! And ubers/lyfts are very easy to get quickly in that location. Otherwise, the property was clean and had everything we needed. We would stay here again!

Quiet area. Lovely modern apartment. Comfortable firm bed. Comfortable seating with pillows and plush towels were much appreciated. There are indoor stairs to access apartment over the garage. Easy to manage. Peaceful outdoor space but need to bring in cushions inside which I didn’t think of. Unfortunately I could not enjoy after it rained. Owner might consider a storage container for them. Enjoyed my stay. Will book again!

Great little spot-tucked away

This was a great spot for my family and me. Cute, comfortable, and had what we needed. It is easy to get in and feels private and calm. One thing to note, the listing is actually through Stay Charlottesville, which means that communications come to email instead of the VRBO app. This just adds another step so I would recommend that the hosts send the info through the App as well. Much easier than searching emails for door codes and details. The dishes were also clean in the dishwasher when we arrived and there was a broken glass in the dishwasher. This was annoying to have to deal with when we first arrived but that was the only thing! Everything else was great and I would highly recommend!

As Advertised

Nice property, very clean, everything was as advertised. We only had one issue. On the morning of checkout we realized the dishwasher did not work. It's possible there was something quirky about it and we didn't jiggle the handle in the proper way but we just hand washed the dishes we had used, no big deal but the owner will want to check this out. Other than that one small issue, everything was fine. We would stay here again!
