Off season, this stay was nice. The room was large, with two sitting areas and 3 AC units. Quaint, with a historic feel and cute pool area and bar. Staff friendly and accommodating for dogs. Lots of green space for the pup. Their nearby cafe was a highlight for breakfast. A few amenities were a bit lackluster, the room type we booked was King but the bed was only Full even though the room itself (03) was large with the extra seating areas. No in room fridge. The most inconvenient is the parking situation. Its now mandatory valet, so getting in and out is slow. If youre on a relaxed timetable, its ok, but would have preferred just to park on the steet to have easy access to our car. They also park it under sap trees, so that leaves your car a mess.

We appreciated our stay at Oakhurst Inn. The property is in a good location to the University and not far from downtown. Our room/bathroom was clean and the staff was very helpful. There is not much parking but they provide valet and on-street parking for you.

Great Property w/ Pool

We were looking for a one-night stay in Charlottesville. It was hot so we basically filtered the search by location/having a pool. There was a nice looking bar and we had drinks by the pool. It was a bit of a walk to our building and our room was down a flight of stairs. They did offer to help with our bags. The parking is mandatory valet. Our building was like an old home with solid wood doors and old hardware. I hadn't used a real metal key in a hotel in quite a while but it was fine. It was quiet and there was a nice cafe/restaurant on the property. We only had coffee drinks and food to go but it was nice. The staff was very knowledable and friendly. I would recommend but be prepared that it's not your standard corporate chain, but that was nice for us.

My wife and I stayed here for two nights for a little getaway weekend in Charlottesville. There is a lot of potential for this place, but it will take a little more effort from management. For example, both air conditioners leaked in our room, likely as a result of dirty filters. The first unit was fixed after we reported the issue, the second one started to leak during our second night. Fortunately, our belongings were fine so it wasn’t a big deal. The situation could have been worse though. The cafe is pretty good. Nice selection of creative foods. Easy walk to the attractions in Charlottesville. The pool was nice, but the sauna didn’t work. Just another small example of the missed potential here. There were no fridges in the rooms, although I knew this going in. This would seem to be another simple upgrade that would really improve the experience. Overall, though, the place was nice and I would stay there again.
