Very Good

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.
We liked the rooftop bar, it was very unique. We disliked our room. I wore white socks and they were very dirty after just an hour of walking in our room. The lighting was also very poor in our room other than the bathroom.
Read some mixed reviews before my stay but wife and I came with our Siberian Husky and were pleasantly surprised. Very clean. And being a property without a traditional front desk/check in process. It was great to that at least concierge was there about 90% of the time. Great breakfast from the cafe we kept going back to. Rooftop was awesome. Definitely coming back!
Even though the property was a virtual hotel there were more staff around to help
than you would expect. The Cafe was closed for 2 days .The roof top bar was very nice.
Very good location
To start, there was no valet when we arrived. They never cleaned rooms or brought towels. There appears to be no staff so it is very difficult to get assistance with things. Beds were comfy though.
I liked this hotel. It probably wasn't as central as I thought it would be but the room was spacious and clean and the staff was very nice. I imagine the rooftop bar would be really nice in cooler days. I also kind of liked the little bookshop they had on the lower level. Overall, it was a nice experience for a short stay.
Nice room...thin walls though so a bit noisy. Need to be comfortable with no on site staff. No issues with check in or check out online, but the lock on our balcony door was broken...which given the balconies are connected would have been an issue had my husband not been with me. So I did not try to contact anyone to fix it. TV remote also not working...again no front desk to remedy the situation quickly so we just did without TV. But overall not a bad experience.
The hotel is a decent hotel but I guess we just hit the perfect storm. The room smelled stale, not bad but as if it doesn't get used very often. Theu had a cafe but the cafe was closed for technical difficulties so only served coffee and pastries. We were going to go out but was tired and decided to stay in, however the TV wasn't working. Spoke to the lady at the front desk who said she would send someone up. They never came. I had to talk to the front desk again the next day. Then to top it all off after a day of touring wineries, we go to sleep. That good been out all day tipsy sleep and the fire alarm goes off and we now have to evacuate the building for 30-45 minutes at 11pm at night. I cant blame the hotel for this but I didn't have the best experience.
Really nice hotel in a great location. Stylish and clean rooms, great bedding and thoughtful bathroom layout.
The lobby bar and restaurant availability could be better.
Overall, we absolutely would stay again!
The hotel was decorated well with thoughtful touches. The bed was comfortable. It was convenient to all dining downtown. The valet person was very nice and helpful, but reeked of cigarette smoke, which was my only complaint.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Hotel under some sort of cleaning. No cafe which meant no breakfast. Coffee good at cage but nothing else. Parking separate vendor and cost. Lots of space, nut nothing going on. Bar on 5th floor decent but not part of hotel. Room fine ... some interesting staff but all helpful.
Unkempt, bath fans dont work, mold on the ceilings near the ice makers, potentially in the duct system. Hard to breathe for my wife with asthma. Transferred rooms around midnight with wife and 2 kids, extreme disturbance lack of rest and refreshment. horrible experience at the hotel,
Unfortunately, I would not recommend the Doyle unless they make some major improvements. I came to Charlottesville in June to get married, and the experience at this hotel managed to make nearly every day more unpleasant.
First, when we checked in, our room was extremely dirty and had an unpleasant smell. We figured this may have been because they let us check in early, and let it slide. We booked the annex suite with 2 floors, the upper floor thermostat read 82F+ when we checked in, so we were a bit stuck on the 1st floor. A maintenance technician entered our unit to program our door lock - he did not knock and we were not warned. The plumbing was not turned on for our unit until 10pm, and after that we spent time cleaning the shower as it was full of hair and dirt. Unfortunately, the poor cleaning is not unique as a one-time thing or to my unit, as I had all my friends & family stay at the Doyle hotel, of which they also reported dirt, hair, even dirty towels and trash left in their units.
Those were the completely unacceptable items, remaining items that just did not help: The motorized shades in almost every room are broken. The bathtub in the annex suite is not secure and wobbles. There is NO microwave in ANY of the suites or common area. Parking is not included, and you must walk across train tracks/poor pavement conditions to get to it. We were given the master code because the programming to our door wasn't set up.
I had no idea that this hotel had almost no staff onsite. The check in/out is virtual and doesn’t even work correctly. If a really helpful maid hadn’t been there I don’t know how I would have gotten into my room. The place is very clean but totally rundown. The door to the patio off of my room didn’t even have a working lock. Someone could have easily climbed a wall and walked right into my room. I would not stay here agin.
