We had a great stay. The innkeeper is lovely and very attentive to your needs. The included breakfast is excellent! And, the dining area is beautiful and cozy. The room was clean and well appointed. The inn is close to UVA Health Center and the Charlottesville Mall - both are walkable. Would stay here again.

Historic inn near, The Corner, in Charlottesville close to UVA. Vanessa, the inn’s hostess, was equally welcoming, charming, and helpful. Stayed in Jefferson Suite which was rustic, yet beautiful and luxurious. The well appointed suite fronts Main Street, with some street noise during day, but quiets down considerably during sleep hours. Excellent breakfast at Farm Bell restaurant-highly recommended…

One night visit
It’s definitely old with peeling paint and could use some new carpets. Television wasn’t working and no assistance was available. I feel I should have been compensated in some way. It would be nice to have coffee/ tea maker in room and an ice machine available. Bed was comfortable and manager helped with our luggage. Breakfast was okay nothing special but waitress was great!

This place is so charming and beautiful! Vanessa, the inn keeper is thoughtful and caring. She took the initiative and reserved me a table for breakfast at the restaurant on site. She walked me to my room and gave me a warm welcome.
