This is a great place to lay your head. It was clean and was a great base for our 3 nights in Charlottesville. It isn't far from UVA and Main Street, but more than walking distance. The morning breakfast is adequate, Bagels, Muffins, Cereal, and waffles. The pool looked like it would be great during the summer months, we talked... More

This place is beyond dirty and broken down it has a dumpster in the lot full of the debris from it undergoing a demoilition! Stay away until a new hotel gets built there, the amount of noise, open drug use in the hallways, filthy rooms and hallways is truely 4th world! More

Booked as package thru Expedia. Only noticed 2 star rating after completing itinerary. On check in discovered 2 stars were overly generous even at $36 for one night. More

We stayed here as a stopover whilst doing the Skyline/Blue Ridgeway drive. On the positive side, the location is good for the university district and the reception guy (Robert) was both very friendly and helpful. The property itself was a bit grim though. Looked very run down and in need of a good facelift. Rooms are motel like and are... More

You had to put your shoulder to the room door to get it open and slam it to get it shut. The ceiling in the bathroom looked like it might fall down and when we showered the water didn't drain out so you ended up standing in water. Also the tub felt like it was floating which made it hard... More

This is a hotel that has seen better Days--before ongoing renovation left parts of it looking like a demilitarized zone, before the departure of Red Lobster left nothing but an empty shell where a restaurant used to be, and before the pool was reduced to a gigantic rainwater catch basin. That was my initial impression. The desk clerk was very... More

This is my first review of a hotel, but wanted to warn fellow travelers about this Days Inn. It was expensive (129$ with AAA discount), shoddy and poorly maintained, with poor plumbing facilities in our room, rusty supports for ceiling tiles, swimming pool "under renovation", dining area without A/C - hot and "under renovation", with minimal choice of breakfast food....

This hotel was great for one night's rest during a two week road trip. The location was close to UVA, vineyards, and Monticello. The staff was friendly and helpful when we had questions. Overall the experience was pleasant for the price. They are working on remodeling the pool, so be aware if you are dead set on laying out by... More

I got a great rate on Priceline for this -- saved 25 bucks a nite by naming my own price. Was in town visiting family so we were only here to sleep. They are undergoing a remodel which it needs, but our room -- 223 -- was clean. The biggest disappointment on this trip was the closed pool in the... More
