UVA Exchange Parents from Sydney, Australia Hotel (& our room) was generally clean, tidy & fresh. Spacious & comfortable room with 2 Queen-sized beds. Only 2 of us occupied the room, but could asily accommodate up to 4 people & not feel cramped inside. Carpark was spacious, too, for the big Chrysler rental that we had. A shout out to the staff who were great! That is, staff from Reception, Cleaning & Kitchen. They were all very polite & attentive, as well as helpful!! A special shout out to Ge. Price per night with a buffet breakfast was reasonably competitive. Waffles, pancakes & French toast (served on some of the days) with thin & crispy bacon & eggs were the highlight for us! Also loved the oatmeal with oat milk & fruit compote!! Although, breakfast would have been even better if there was some fresh vegetables served, like tomatoes, cucumber & lettuce/baby spinach, as well with the buffet. This freshness would help break down the oils/butter used in the cooking. Thus, providing a healthier & a balanced breakfast meal. Would also help accommodate some Vegetarian guests. Having some bananas & mandarins was nice, but on top of that, serving some other fruit like apples/ pears would go nicely, as well. My husband & I enjoyed our stay in the Fairfield Suites/Marriot Hotel University Area, Charlottesville - we felt comfortable, relaxed & safe. We would definitely stay in this hotel again. Thank you to all the staff - you were great!!! D & B Sydney, Australia

I selected a room with handicap features as presented by Expedia. However, that did not lead to having a room with those features. I would have thought that with Expedia having me choose a room like that, that woudbe what we had reserved. Not so. Bad move on the part of Expedia.

The good - clean modern room and solid breakfast. The bad - old mattress with coils (not foam) and excessive noise from patio area just outside the room until 3-4 AM.
