We were told that we were in room 212. For to the floor and key didn’t work for 212, so we saw 211 written on the card. We went into 211. After getting in bed, someone else tried entering our room. Needless to say that was quite frightening and the person stated that this was the room the front desk gave her the key to. Front desk guy apologized over and over and said it was his fault.

Would stay again.
Used the pool and hot tub. The room was clean. Beds could have been a little more comfortable. One was so close to the wall you had to climb over the other person to get to that side. Shower was hot and so was breakfast. Service was easy and everyone was very nice. Would definitely stay again.

Everything was great except that we paid extra for queen sized beds and the beds were definitely smaller. I went to the desk and was told that those are considered their “queen beds”

The room we were put in was dirty and just beat up. There was a heavy musty perfume smell and you could tell the floor hadn't been vacuumed between occupancies. I also discovered numerous bites on my arms and legs the following morning from something, not sure if from a mosquito or something worse. We were staying there with our 7 month old daughter and were put in a room on the top floor at the furthest end of the hall. I felt like we were put there just because she "may disturb" other guests but she wasn't the one banging doors all night. We have to stay in Charlottesville from time to time for my daughter's follow up appointments with her kidney doctor at UVA Children's hospital but we will never stay here again.

My room stunk so bad like dirty socks or feet. I sprayed air freshner and body spray all over everything but the smell overpowered it quickly. I was not happy about this especially since i paid over $200 for a basic room.

For an overnight stay, my family needed a bed and shower for a medical appointment the next day. Only thing I would have to complain about was the flat pillows. Next time I'll bring my own pillows.

The property is old and in disrepair. When something is being sold again and again, there is no excuse for it not looking pristine every day! The shower held water and the stopper for the drain would not stay open. The TV was of low quality. The double beds were tiny. The coverlet on the bed was not laundered. There was dried blood on it and what looked like sweat stains. It did not seem to be very clean.

One night stay
Overall, the stay was good. The service at the front desk for both check in and check out was easy, fast, and friendly. The staff in the breakfast room was also very friendly and kept the breakfast area very clean and the food stocked. The room was the only part that was not as amazing as the rest. Our room was two double beds and a pretty small room. The tv did not work, the image for every channel was very fuzzy; the safe was torn off from the wall, one of the comforters had a stain on it. As far as the bathroom, the exhaust fan did not work; one toilet paper roll had water damage, the other had black little fabric looking balls all over it. There was also a water stain on the under sink area where the pipes were. Overall, the room did the job though. There was an AC unit, closet, safe, mini fridge, desk, shared night stand between beds, shower/bath. The hotel we very nice and quiet and very convenient for anyone visiting UVA for the weekend. Breakfast was good with a nice variety- juices, bagels, eggs, bacon, waffle maker, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, tea and coffee.

The hotel and staff were excellent. The room was very clean and the bathroom was excellent.. They were very friendly and pleasing. The breakfast was excellent and the staff that monitored the breakfast did a fantastic job of keeping hot food available as well as a;; foods available. Would definitely stay there again or any Sleep Inn.

We spent with tax nearly $215 for one night. The sheets smelled like they hadn’t been changed, the carpeting in the room was loose, there was a hole in the tub surround, and the floor of the tub was dented and wouldn’t drain all the way. The light switch in the bathroom needed repair. The area in general has a lot of activity at night, particularly beside and behind the hotel. I feel the nightly rate should be less for the condition of the hotel. I’ve stayed at much nicer Sleep Inn’s.
