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!

Charlottesville

This property is above a garage in an old neighborhood…the property was very dirty with dust and cobwebs and the kitchen stove top was grimy! The kitchen lacked proper cooking utensils and the pots and pans were extremely old…the cabinets need updating and cleaned! The bathroom was clean but the floor was not and the living room needed a good vacuuming and dusted! The area was old and run down but close to the historical sites! These pictures are very deceiving and we will not be returning! If ppl pay attention to detail then I believe this place has a lot of potential…we will not be returning!

Comfortable Carriage House apartment with garage

The Carriage House was just what we needed for our stay in Charlottesville for the weekend. Quiet, comfortable, and convenient with the bonus of our own indoor garage space. Our review would be 5 stars except as mentioned by previous reviewers, unit definitely would benefit from more attention to cleaning (dust, mildew in shower) - and from some basic updating (paint refresh, repair of stone block pad outside back door, etc.). Also a toilet paper holder would be a nice touch.

Perfect for a weekend getaway!

We loved spending a long weekend at the Carriage House! Beautifully designed, well appointed, quiet space that was conveniently located for all our activities. The beds were incredibly comfy! We even got to spot a white (leucistic) deer while hanging on the great porch. We would have enjoyed having a few decks of cards or games for family fun, but otherwise we had everything we needed! Would definitely return!

Great Weekend Stay in Charlottesville

Had a great and simple stay in this property while in Charlottesville for the weekend. Check-in was slightly complicated when my assigned door code didn't work, but Stay Charlottesville was quick to respond with a working code. The property was exactly as described and the added bonus of the garage space was fantastic, especially with the heavy rain that came in on our final day (loading up the car while dry was a great bonus). The only minor recommendation I have would be for the property to have a another cleaning pass beyond the routine floors, countertops, and bathrooms: there were a few locations where dust and cobwebs had accumulated. The floors, Countertops, kitchen, and bathrooms were all spotless, just needed another once-over around the areas that don't get attention as much. Overall was a great experience that I would recommend and would stay again.
