The check in staff could not have been friendlier. Seriously. The staff at this hotel absolutely rule. The gym was great too - was able to get a full workout in completely by myself. Unfortunately, my shower was broken and the drain was completely clogged, so I had to stand in freezing cold water any time I wanted to bathe. Maybe in another room, I'd absolutely stay here again. The location is great. Thanks y'all!

We arrived early, staff was unhelpful. We finally got our room key after waiting in line over an hour to check in. Got there at 2:45 finally got to desk at 3:50. There was at least 10 ppl in line. The one lady said I can’t help anyone else the other lady Laura had to work alone with over 10 ppl in line after us. We got our room key, it was wrong. They gave us the wrong room. On the wrong floor. We finally got the key to the right room, light fixtures were broken. No hot water. No working AC unit. Everyone in line before us had similar issues. I’m not one to complain but it was not an enjoyable experience at all & I was charged 3x for the 50$ fee for room insurance. My 258$ room became more than 400$, I hope that is a mistake because this has been a horrible experience

We thought breakfast was included in our reservation most Holiday Inn’s provide breakfast. We were disappointed that it was not included.

The staff was very helpful and attentive. We had an issue with one room which someone had smoked in but the staff took care od us and immediately got us into another room. Definitely will go there again.

Easy to park and check in however with check in staff were unsure about pet fees and never really checked us into the hotel until we were back from the event that brought us to the area, a second staff member stopped us and readdressed the fact that we had pets and if we were aware that additional fees would apply and asked for a credit card to be put on file. Overall, a messy check in process.

Weird dynamics with house keeping. House keeping did not clean after our first night. Early evening when we asked the front desk, they (completely unfazed) indicated that house keeping was winding down and that should have gotten done earlier(it did not). On our third day, they did a lackluster job with one of the beds and did not make our other queen bed.

Overall good. A little pricey for what you get. Basic breakfast and a little difficult getting in and out but f the parking lot.

We enjoyed the hotel and breakfast. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean. We were hesitant at first about it being pet friendly, but just booked a higher level floor. No trace of pets there.

Comfortable and clean rooms. The third floor smelled similar to a nursing home when I got off elevators. Not sure what that was about. Had trainees checking in which proved slow and unsure of which keys to push on their computer.
3.0
Wide space under the door makes it noisy. Front desk was understaffed. Very hard to get in and out of because of traffic patterns.

We were here to see the Reba concert, as was 1/2 of VA., NC & WV. It seemed liked everyone arrived at check in and the line was extremely long. The clerks who assisted us were calm and efficient, management passed out free water and all the rooms were ready for us.
The rooms were clean, and beds comfortable after a long night of singing. I’d definitely stay here again.

The stay was a night getaway for my wife and I. I had purchased show tickets, where the show was at John Paul Jones Arena. I am a member of IHG and also hotels.com and the Holiday Inn was great. Room was spacious as well as the bathroom. My wife really like the shower there.

Friendy and helpful staff. The bartender was a hoot and made our evening enjoyable, even though they didn't have much food to order that evening. Breakfast was good, I liked a to order breakfast rather than a buffet. We were in the middle of a hurricane though, which is why we stayed in.

It was not the best once checked into our room we quickly realized that it had not been cleaned, both trash cans were full there was a wet rag in the shower from the previous tenet and one of the beds was not made. I didnt mind i figured theyre understaffed and just running a little behind so i told the front desk expecting that when i got back around midnight i would find a clean and ready room but to my surprise nothing got done.

Property is close to UVA which is a plus. Our shower door would not open or close without two of us forcefully moving it-should have been caught by housekeeping prior to us checking in. The handle completely dislodged. We reported it to front desk but door was not fixed. We found ants on our 2nd evening. Menu in restaurant/bar is limited and several items were not available. Food was good however. For $300 per night, very disappointed

Check-In was a very slow process. Room was good. Bathroom tub/shower was not clean. Looked liked there was mildew in the bottom of the tub. No hot water for 2 of the days that I was there. No one ever came by and cleaned the room or brought new towels.

Fellow guest on the second floor were incredibly rude and noisy. Must have thought they had entire property to themselves ALL NIGHT LONG!

This Holiday Inn is is a pleasant middle-priced hotel. It is convenient if you are driving to places in the Charlottesville area; but it is NOT the place to stay if you want to keep your car at the hotel and walk into, and around, the university area. The intersection it's at is too dangerous and too far from the college. Also, the hotel does not offer a breakfast on Mondays or Tuesdays; and you'll need to go elsewhere for it.
3.0
Nice, older Holiday Inn, clean and comfortable. Front desk and dinning room staff are friendly and helpful. Hotel close to downtown Charlottesville, UVA and shopping.
2.0
Good points: free airport shuttle that you need to book in advance, nice gym, clean property, nice room, so good for a 1-2 night stay. Trader Joes only 1 block away so the microwave could be used for heating food. Has recently been refurbished. However, the bar was only open 1 night of the 5 we stayed due to lack of staff, the air-conditioning was very fierce so eventually we got it shut off, the pool was closed for maintenance. Its a 10 min drive outside of downtown Charlottesville so we used Uber/lift a lot (no problems getting one). No room cleaning during the stay and no room service (I think this might be a COVID-related problem). Breakfast is an extra.
