"Queen room with balcony was very spacious and enjoyed having the option to sit out on the balcony. Rooms could use an update as walls and counters had chips. A bit larger refrigerator would be helpful. A very, small mini refrigerator in room. Enjoyed drinks on the roof top bar. Good place to have a drink but better options in the area to enjoy a good meal. Front staff very accommodating."

"Very nice place, small, ideal for visiting the University. Cafe makes an excellent breakfast (included in room rate) but doesn't open til 8 and gets busy fast. You will be running if you have meetings at 9am. Room is nice but lacked a desk - more suited for leisure than work. Font door lock is flimsy (think those used for bathrooms in your house). Even though its very visible - right next to Main Street - and highly unlikely to be broken in, this always left me feeling a bit uneasy."

10/10 Excellent
"We stay at the Mod because of the location to the Corner and our daughters apartment. The location for us is very desirable. That said, you are in a college town; the train can be heard going by, the frats are close and you can hear music and the street out front can be noisey. We bring a sound machine to drown out the noise. The staff is literally the nicest and most helpful. We love the coffee, food truck (the breakfast tacos are the best I have ever tasted), and parking is easy in the garage located right across the street. The rooms are very spacious with a small kitchenette, fun record player and nice sized bathroom. The rooms are very clean, modern and have a cool vibe."

"The hotel was very busy the weekend I was there. They had 4 wedding parties and there were two concerts in town. It was after 5:00pm before they had a room available for me. The staff did their best and I suspect this was out of their control. Once I was settled into my room the rest of the stay was without issue. Breakfast was typical of a hotel without a restaurant. Nothing to write home about but not terrible either."

Modern Victorian Retreat with Wraparound Porch Near UVA & Downtown

Modern Victorian Retreat with Wraparound Porch Near UVA & Downtown

10/10 Excellent
"This was a perfect spot for two couples in town for a wedding. The location is fantastic - close to restaurants, the Downtown Mall, and we were lucky to hit the Saturday Farmers Markets, too. Our hosts were wonderful - quickly answered any questions and provided tips as we prepared for our stay. Check in and check out were a breeze. The house has a great kitchen opening to a cozy den (perfect for football watching!). We loved playing dominoes and cards at the big dining table. The wraparound porch was perfect perch for morning coffee! The beds were super-comfy, and the hosts had stocked the bathrooms with toiletries, hair dryers, fresh towels…the works! Our crew loved this retreat and would recommend it wholeheartedly."

Perfect UVA Location | Historic Boone-White House

Perfect UVA Location | Historic Boone-White House

8/10 Good
"This charming historic home was very clean and centrally located near UVA. The kitchen was well appointed and the grounds and patio are lovely. We were a group of senior citizens and the amount of steep stairs outside and inside made it a challenge getting luggage upstairs to the bedrooms. Road noise is significant and there were water pressure issues in the main bathroom. The driveway is difficult to get in and out of as street parking blocks the view to pull out and it is very difficult to see oncoming cars and kids on scooters and bikes. A mirror in the median would help. Backing out is very hard so you must do a turn around at the top. Driveway is shared with another property on site so turning around takes a helper or two.Overall a great stay, just a few challenges."
