Residence Inn by Marriott Charlottesville Downtown

The hotel is super nice and very typical of Marriott properties. It's a Residence Inn so of course it's really a little efficiency apartment which was perfect in terms of space and amenities. We chose it because it is dog friendly and it is very near the pedestrian mall area. There is on site parking in a lot and a garage and there is a nearby grassy area to walk dogs. All the staff we very friendly and helpful. It is worth noting that the hotel is on a very busy corner with traffic lights in downtown Charlottesville. Our dog friendly room was on the second floor (great for easy access for potty breaks) and overlooked one of the side streets where there was noise from traffic stopping and starting at the light. This is to be expected in a busy city, and we are not light sleepers so this did not bother us. If you are a light sleeper though, ask for a room away from the corner or maybe one on a higher floor.

The breakfast was very good. Croissant sandwiches with egg and ham or egg and sausage were good. Enjoyed that there was fruit also. Scrambled eggs were good - did not taste like the powdered kind. The women who worked helping with breakfast were very friendly and nice. Natalie at the front desk was great - very helpful. Wonderful customer service.

. Rooms were great, spacious with full cooking facilities. Location was superb, 2 mins walk from downtown. Nice continental breakfast but 9am finish time was too early in my opinion. Not a huge selection but enough for our needs

Excellent breakfast! The front desk staff when we arrived was friendly and courteous and very helpful. The suite we had was very clean, outfitted perfectly. The bed and the pillows very comfortable. The bathroom clean, spacious and modern.

Lovely hotel close to the Paramount Theater. The room was well appointed, spacious, and clean. The staff we encountered were pleasant and professional. Great place to stay for under $200/night
