English Inn of Charlottesville

English Inn of Charlottesville

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed at the English Inn for five days. Our room was very clean and inviting. The bathroom was recently renovated and the shower temperature and pressure were both good. The breakfast buffet contained many options; the food was well prepared and was perhaps the best buffet I've encountered at a budget hotel. The daily rate was much lower than I was accustomed to paying, making the place a great value. I would certainly stay there should I visit Charlottesville in the future."
