    Beautiful apartment. Very clean. Very well furnished. Excellent location if you’re wanting nearby shops and restaurants. Parking lot right behind building. Air conditioning made comfortable stay during heat of summer. Be prepared to walk up three floors of stairs. No elevator in building. I would gladly stay here again if I return to Charlottesville.

    Great property. Roomy. Decorated beautifully. AC works well. Great location. We had no issues or problems with expected homeless population on Main Street mall. Included parking is a fantastic perk. 2 1/2 flights stairs not too bad.Be aware, historic building... floors are creaky. I think it adds charm. Booking process with the Stay management company part was a bit onerous (background checks, uploading id, etc) relative to other VRBO bookings I have made.

    The property was beautiful. I appreciated the historical elements like the tall ceilings and large windows as well as the decor and the atmosphere of the apartment. It was convenient to access shops, restaurants and more. I liked the atmosphere of Main Street, which is all bricked in and not accessible to vehicles. It's a lovely atmosphere. The only downside was, the dozen or more homeless people positioned throughout the mall. There was a police presence and we did not see any disturbances. I also enjoyed the various types of live music in the mall. Overall, it was a wonderful time.

    My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. You will be staying on the third / top floor with a restaurant on the first floor and residences on the top two floors. Not to be confused with the Old Met rentals that sit over the Old Met event space, this unit seemed like it would be a little quieter (we did not stay on a Friday or Saturday night though). The amenities were very welcome - parking included in the outdoor lot behind the building, and access to the “Common House” social club for co-working, dinner, lounge, etc. Just know where you are staying. The location of this property is fantastic for walking around and having direct access to the coffee shops, restaurants and stores that this part of Charlottesville has to offer. At the same time, the pedestrian mall will be loud and full of “interesting characters” until late in the night some nights and you can hear all the activity quite well from living room of this unit that overlooks the area. The bedroom of this unit however, is in the back and was much quieter (at least for us). Overall, a great stay for us. We would love to stay here again.

    Walking distance to so much, in the heart of old town Main St! The 3 flights of stairs was challenging for these ol' folks, but worth it. The apartment was wonderful in every way!

    My wife and I visited Charlottesville to attend the Virginia Film Festival and the location of the Old Met was ideal. Located half a block from the Paramount theater, the Old Met offered a quick stop between shows for a rest, snack, or nap. Awesome!
