The location is FABULOUS!! the bed is very comfortable and we loved having two bathrooms. My only complaints are: I wish there was a smart tv in the bedroom, and if there’s an issue (the bathroom light seems to have an electrical loose wire issue) there’s a delay vs VRBO places I’ve stayed that are privately owned. Also, this unit is the third floor which makes for some good exercise! Parking is confusing but figured it out.

Great property. Roomy. Decorated beautifully. AC works well. Great location. We had no issues or problems with expected homeless population on Main Street mall. Included parking is a fantastic perk. 2 1/2 flights stairs not too bad.Be aware, historic building... floors are creaky. I think it adds charm. Booking process with the "Stay" management company part was a bit onerous (background checks, uploading id, etc) relative to other VRBO bookings I have made.

The property was beautiful. I appreciated the historical elements like the tall ceilings and large windows as well as the decor and the atmosphere of the apartment. It was convenient to access shops, restaurants and more. I liked the atmosphere of Main Street, which is all bricked in and not accessible to vehicles. It's a lovely atmosphere. The only downside was, the dozen or more homeless people positioned throughout the mall. There was a police presence and we did not see any disturbances. I also enjoyed the various types of live music in the mall. Overall, it was a wonderful time.

Clean charming place - parking included - great location!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. You will be staying on the third / top floor with a restaurant on the first floor and residences on the top two floors. Not to be confused with the Old Met rentals that sit over the Old Met event space, this unit seemed like it would be a little quieter (we did not stay on a Friday or Saturday night though). The amenities were very welcome - parking included in the outdoor lot behind the building, and access to the “Common House” social club for co-working, dinner, lounge, etc. Just know where you are staying. The location of this property is fantastic for walking around and having direct access to the coffee shops, restaurants and stores that this part of Charlottesville has to offer. At the same time, the pedestrian mall will be loud and full of “interesting characters” until late in the night some nights and you can hear all the activity quite well from living room of this unit that overlooks the area. The bedroom of this unit however, is in the back and was much quieter (at least for us). Overall, a great stay for us. We would love to stay here again.
