Keswick Vacations from $528

The room included a pull out bed but there were no bed covers for it and also on the side of it - it appeared to have bugs. The website states it is self check-in but there was a staff member there. However she sat at a lectern so I wasn’t sure if she worked there or not. The parking was the most frustrating part. That is probably the busiest street so we circled about 9 times for almost an hour. Finally when we got street parking and went inside - apparently there was a QR code to go to an off site parking lot. It’s across the train tracks and no street lights around so it’s very dark. We didn’t get a notification about parking until the day after as we already left the next day. Overall it was probably the worst stay and definitely not worth the price. I will not be staying here again.

Overall a good stay. Spacious room. Tight aw it is in the university area, but we found street parking. Alarm went off in the middle of the night. Fire department came. No staff on site so a little challenging. No follow up to apologize for guests having to leave rooms at 2am and wait outside to see what was going on. Things happen. Communication would have been good.

If you are looking for a hotel with unique historical rooms, an excellent staff and amenities, I would recommend the Dinsmore. The free breakfast is beyond belief, free parking, and the staff exceeds all expectations. Right across the street from UVA, minutes from Monticello. Plenty of great eateries near by. Although the building is old, the rooms have all the modern amenities and are spotless. I will stay at the Dinsmore whenever in Charlottesville.
