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.

The perfect downtown condo

Beautiful two bedroom condo situated above a wonderful Indian restaurant near one end of the Cville walkable mall.The beds are cloud-like soft, the ceilings high and the kitchen is vintage, combining to create a fun and wonderful atmosphere for whoever stays on the property.Located within nlocks of restaurants, bars, shopping and events, this was the prrfect place to spend a week visiting friends and family.

There are a ton of stairs, which they do include in the description, but the a/c doesn't work well so it was quite uncomfortable in the upper level. Just really like it, although I love Charlottesville-we won't be back

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.

Great location

Location was great. Owner/ management company very responsive. Plenty of room for two couples or a small family. Trash from the group before us and some concerns with cleanliness of the bathroom. Curtain rod was broken in the downstairs bedroom leading to early morning sunshine. Overall, a good experience would likely stay here again if those things were addressed.

Downtown Apartment

This apartment was conveniently located downtown Charlottesville within walking distance of most all the restaurants and places we wanted to visit which was a huge perk. Property manager was very quick to help on the weekend when we had an issue with the lockbox, which they replaced before we left. Apartment was very clean and as advertised; only downside was the noise from the neighbors after midnight. Highly recommend!

Right on the Mall

The apartment was very nice, clean, comfortable and wonderfully located...right on the Mall. The property manager was also very responsive when I was a bit confused about how to enter through the very good security. My only recommendation to future travelers would be to bring Nespresso pods. The apartment has a great Nespresso machine, though pods are hard to come by. However, there are very good coffee shops in the immediate area. Our thanks to the host. It was just what we needed.

Clean & accurate

Property was very clean, decorated simply but nicely, & pictures accurate. Kitchen had basic spices & things needed to cook a meal. Location was great being right on the outdoor mall, with a window & upstairs balcony overlooking it. Not sure if it was because we were there during a common spring break week, but lots of the stores/restaurants were closed or closed earlier than expected, so the mall was disappointing. Note that it is a 2nd floor walk-up, with an additional 18-20 stairs between the 1st & 2nd floors of the unit. Only recommendations would be to finish putting curtains on all the windows & provide a trash can in the kitchen/living area.
