Best stay for families
Pros:

Renovated not long ago. Nice sized suites with good carpeting. Kitchen with appliances is a great thing while laundary within the building was the icing on the cake. Nice wooded walking trail behind the building, easy parking and a filling breakdast all were tge perks you enjoy. Lication is just 2 mins walk from UVA enterance and a lot of food choices just 1 min walk. Highly recommended.

Great price and location!
Pros:

Great location and very clean.

Cons:

I didn’t like that the suite’s bathroom was only accessible through the bedroom. The person who was traveling with me slept in the living room, so they had wake me to walk through the bedroom to use the restroom.
