Location is excellent

Great location, on the walking mall, just above an Indian restaurant. Access is easy to the rooftop with cool view of walking mall area with furniture to lounge in, although the rooftop area is shared with all apt owners in the building. Only thing that would make it better is for there to be curtains or shade on the high palladium window in the upstairs bedroom so that light from neighboring building doesn’t shine in all night, and having a nightstand on both sides of bed to lay phone/wallet/etc since there is no other furniture in bedroom.

Not worth the price tag

The apartment was clean and close to restaurants/shopping area. The deck area was not clean and as pictured. It is located on top of restaurant so there is a consistent smell of curry inside the apartment and on deck. There is a significant homeless population. At night they use store fronts as camps and it gets pretty interesting at night time. They were several loud arguments amongst them, the police had to come one of the nights.

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.

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.

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.
