I don't remember the woman's name, but the bartender on the 9th floor grille was great. Wonderful and considerate service to put our food order in 10 minutes before the kitchen closed. And pretty good singer/voice, to boot.

Front desk staff want very welcoming. Parking is limited. The hotel seems dark and dated and definitely needs some renovation. They are in the process of doing that now so some noise related to that….I might stay there again but not until the renovations are done. In the meantime, I’d stay elsewhere.

The room felt musty, and I wasn’t a fan of the service. I went upstairs to the restaurant for dinner and had to wait 10 minutes to even find the bartender and be acknowledged, and another 5 to wait for her to get off the phone. The elevator reeked of cigarette smoke.

The hotel is in a great location for accessing University of Virginia ground. The room was well organized, clean, efficient with comfortable beds. The staff members at the front desk were very cordial and accommodating. There are enough food options inside and outside (nearby) hotel. We booked the hotel via Expedia; and didn't expect that the hotel charge additional fee for parking in the garage daily.
