About this property

Old Met #202 | 1 BR Corner View Overlooking Downtown Mall

This property has been selected for inclusion in The 100 Collection™, a global designation awarded to only the top professionally managed vacation rentals based on consistent quality and service.

Situated in Charlottesville's historic downtown and completely renovated in 2021, this 1 BR, 1.5 BA 2nd floor walk-up apartment represents what locals love: history and the Downtown Mall. Located on the corner of 1st and Main with views of the Downtown Mall, this lovely one bedroom encompasses the heart of Charlottesville and is at the center of great cuisine, art, theatre, live music, and incredible spectating.

With its original heart pine floors, this apartment boast quality and craftsmanship with features like granite counters, 6 ft tall windows overlooking the Mall, 9 ft ceilings, and modern design furnishings. *Please Note - Fireplace is decorative only! Not for guest use!

The location can't be beat in the middle of the downtown action!  We like to note to future guests that this is a popular area (especially on the weekends) and the noise level on the Downtown Mall may be higher particularly on Friday and Saturday evenings. There is an event venue below the apartment that may have considerable activity into the late evening (12:00am).

We loved this condo! Very clean, cozy, well-decorated, excellent location on pedestrian mall. Sofa bed is surprisingly comfortable as were the pillows and linens. Free parking is directly behind the beautiful building. We enjoyed being able to walk to restaurants and shops. You can hear pedestrians talking and having fun but for us, it made our stay that much more fun. We would stay there again.

Clean, well-appointed, and classy apartment with central location. Perfect for those wanting to be at the heart of Charlottesville. Note that this also means you’re at the mercy of the noise of the crowds, especially on the weekends. Luckily we sleep with earplugs. Also, the area, like many cities, struggles with its homeless problems. We never felt unsafe, but it can be a little startling for those unaccustomed to this reality. Also, our arrival instructions included two different codes for the front door; one at the beginning of the email and another at the end of the email. After several unsuccessful attempts (using the code at the end of the email) we called the manager. She quickly pointed out the code at the beginning of the email and we made it in. The welcome on the TV screen also listed the incorrect code. Overall, it was a lively stay in a beautiful apartment. Would definitely book again!

clean, cozy, (noisy due to location but to be expected in the urban area), not as much to do in the downtown mall as i would have expected but it was nice to be within walking distance of coffee, shops, food etc. Had a great weekend meeting up as mother/daughter and exploring the area.

Overall, the place was beautiful and very clean. The location and view was great! We only had a few issues: the communication with the property manager was a little confusing with the directions on where to park and when I asked I was told to refer to the email, also we didn’t know there was a wine experience included, and the fireplace didn’t work.

Great Stay in Charlottesville

This property was perfect for a girls weekend! Check in was fairly easy and the Stay concierge was responsive when we had questions leading up to our weekend! You can’t beat the location, overlooking the Downtown Mall and walkable areas of Charlottesville. The only small inconvenience is that you are only given one complimentary parking space. Additional cars are advised to park in a deck multiple blocks away for a fee. Otherwise, we had a perfect stay and would absolutely rent this apartment again!

Great location, just a few things…

We arrived at our VRBO which was located in a fantastic area, and the location was walkable to most events. However, upon arrival the kitchen had not been cleaned the stovetop was dirty and there was dried egg yolk on the kitchen table. Very dusty. Our son ended up leaving to get a hotel room because the sleeper sofa did not have bedding available. Our daughter slept on the couch without pulling it out. We reached out and the maintenance manager had linens delivered the next day. Very quick in response. Again, great location. We were disappointed that we were not set up for our stay.

Week-long stay

We stayed for a week at the VRBO. The property was as described - right on the outdoor mall so wonderful for walking to restaurants, etc. It can be a bit noisy especially on the weekends but with windows closed we had no trouble. The kitchen had the standard plates/glassware etc. but was pretty limited on cookware, tools - had to buy a can opener. Was very nice to have access to the Common House, a short walk from the unit for remote working. We would definitely stay again.
