convenient stay near UVA
I stay at the Graduate whenever I have meetings at the University of Virginia. Walking distant to campus, food, shops. Safe and usually quiet - only draw-back this visit was some low renovation noise during business hours.

Motorcycle friendly!
We were traveling on motorcycles so the Valet guy gave us a convenient place to park the bikes for easy access and in a covered area!
The highlight for me was the rooftop bar and restaurant...caught a full rainbow after a major storm rolled thru!

Excellent location, friendly staff, but broken lighting fixtures made the room very dark, making the hotel room feel much older. Beds were stained, with an odd scent that further contributed to the old feel experience.

Really poor experience sadly. Didnt have the type of room we booked when we arrived. Rooms are old and super dark/dingy and smell smoky. Have stayed in worse but given the price point a terrible value

The valet was rude and nasty.
The air conditioning in our room did not maintain the temperature correctly. It would go on and the room temperature would be comfortable but as soon as the very noisy unit cycled off, it would be extremely uncomfortable in the room.
The front desk staff was friendly, helpful, and polite.
This is our go to hotel when visiting family in C'ville and had always been great, but not so much this stay.
